Hey guys
Im here in St.Louis.--getting ready to buy a 99 Civic hatch with a B16A2 swap and some bolt on goodies,now the only reason i knew what to type for the kind of engine it was because one of my techs is a Honda guru of sorts.
Like the look of the hatch like the fact its so light,still have to get used to the whole power band thing...im 50 and im used to engines that twist the front fenders up when you launch...
BUT im always looking to learn it puts 192hp to the wheels which im told is a good number...so bear with an old guy..anything that can do low 13's and still get 30+ miles to the gallon impressed the hell out me.

My tech told me to spend 300 and get a VTEC controller..so we will see how that goes.Soon ill be on here asking help for the turbo i have to put on this...


Thanks all
Bob
