Dats odd because I thought with those kind of engines mods like that would produce more for him. Ne ways I guess our cars are all show and no go for now until the aftermarket indystry starts making better stuff for our cars. Look at how long it took them to make a street legal turbo for the d16

in any 4 cylinder car.......i don't care if its a GSR
yeah our engine doesn't respond as well to mods as others but, it takes ALOT of money to make ANY honda go "fast"
So stop ragging your (and my) car......have some faith.....
i know i know........how was i ragging. just saying that basic mods make 'CRAPTASTIC' RESULTS. They do. Now doing a bunch of craptastic mods, will give you a respectable gain. but regardless. the individual mods produce craptastic results. i'm more into the appearence thing. when i want performance i'll wait....save up oodles of dough and get a swap with a turbo. That being said i love civics....i'm not ragging. and i'll give props to anyone who does all the basic mods and gets good times (high 15's). But still high 15's are still considered slow by and large. but for a N/A 1.7L that aint' half bad. keep up the good work modding your car. i'll stick with the show, you get the go.

Originally posted by Jhonda I wouldn't go as far as saying any 4 cylinder
With a borla catback $480 4hp
offroad pipe $200 9hp
afx udp $100 5hp
cam gear $150 7hp
Stock I ran 143hp
with these mods it adds up to 168hp
But this is with a Focus svt (note I am not tring to start anything)
Sorry to burst your bubble, but I think his definition of "fast" is much faster than 168hp
my friend has a 07 gsx and with an N1 catback, K&N intake, and hks blowoff valve (less than 1 k) he added well over 25 all under 1k. car really boots, gotta love boost

Ya can't burst my bubble
I wasn't refering to the quote about making a honda fast
I was talking about him saying
"if you wanna make REAL power it costs more than 1000 bucks"
and I made some good gains on a 4 cylinder for $930... 25hp which aint bad for the money

You got a lot of points and posts, maybe you should spend more time on your car than on the forums.
D17a2 = USA Civic EX
DC Sports only makes the upper piece.
ViNRoCk8, what are you even talkin about?
To make real HorsePower you need more than 1 grand? The items I jus posted were over a grand the DC Sports twin can itself is 600 and the header is over 250 alone.
Sorry but I won't let you talkin about a b18c5 like that with your status no way in hell.
You're talkin about a 1.8 and inline fours can't perform without a lot of money.
Even david02civic's brother's camero pulls out weak numbers. And Im not gonna even talkin about buddy club or Toda racing....

My status.....what the hell are you talking about?
And when I say real power..........I am talking about 200whp FWD Hondas.......if your Honda is putting down 200-250Whp......thats real horsepower....not the couple of ponies you get from crappy bolt-ons....
guys who are throwing down 250whp in a FWD Honda are spending REAL money, therefore getting REAL (meaning alot) Horsepower.
And when i said you need more than a grand I meant a hell of alot more than you spent.
You won't let me talk about the b18c5 engine like that.......I said GSR...YOU IDIOT......Not TypeR
I think you need to check your status!

It takes alot of money to make ANY honda fast? Ummm well the Prelude, stock, has 200hp, and the S2000,stock as well, has 240hp. Yes, it takes alot of money to make our cars fast, but since when is our car a sports car? Our cars are cheap, economy cars, and therefore have no power.
SOHC is from AZ. As if he were in bagdad with a 7thgen. well..i guess he could loot it and a lap top to make the post. and as far as the guy making 168hp at the wheel. Our cars barely do that will IHE and a 50 shot. I say its pretty good for bolt ons.
