Project: Hater-aid
Haters thats all I got to say. I give alot of respect to the all motor D17 boys. Anyone who can take a stock 1.7L SOHC Honda economy engine into a beastly motor with even over 150 whp deserves respect, especially if they did the work themselves. Sure a turbo kit is easy and what not but you just built yourself an expensive not so friendly daily driven maintence ***** and it's still not that fast and you lose respect. Now I give ultimate respect to someone who does the fuel system convert, a good turbo kit, front mount, and full turbo'd built block. I'm talking sleeved, pistons, the works. A turbo car done right. However, even then it's not what we probably bought our cheap civics for, a daily driver. Just my two cents. So you all motor boys raise your middle finger to the turbos!
Damn....I like to hear that our D17 has potential, especially all motor, but that had to be EXPENSIVE! Most of our cars ARE daily drivers, and we are so used to driving them stock, that 160 HP will feel like/be more than we will ever need. When I want a car that is legitamately fast, I will buy something else.
