I have a 1998 Honda Civic LX, and believe it or not, i bought the poor car from someone tying to make it a ricer, and i just want a dependable daily driver that gets good MPG, the exhaust is just a fart cannon, its not loud, but it actually sounds good. The intake is ****ed up. the 4 basic things to make a car breath better is Intake, Header, Cat Converter, and Exhaust right? If this is so, these are the things i am fixing to start upgrading. i dont want any extra hp, but if these upgrades add hp, then fine. MY GOAL HERE IS MPG. The following is a pic of my car, and the current intake. Followed by a pic of Smeade's new intake on his civic (rebuild), and an intake kit i found that if that is what i need, i am ordering.
To sum up all the questions.
1. To make a car breath better i add: Intake, Header, Cat Converter, and Exhaust right?
2. Is my intake ****ed up and killing MPG?(This is the way it was when i bought it)
3. Is the pic of meade's intake what mine should look like?
4. And lastly, do i need to buy this kit in the last pic(Or one similar(Reccomend?))?
My Car(Not riced out, and never will be)
My Intake
Meade's Intake
Intake To Buy(If Needed)
Any Input Appreciated.
