Whats up next?

Hey this is my first post but, ive bin reading for a while now.....so far I have put in an intake, new exhaust/cut off the cat and installed an AFC ...now im kinda stuck im running out of bolt ons and im a student so im short on cash aswell...i wanted to ask what you figured would be the next step. I was thinking maybe headers but im not sure how much of a difference that would make

I was also thinking about going to work on the oil rigs this summer (I live in Alberta Canada) and either do a k20A2 swap or turbo it... but by the time i did that i might aswell import an old supra or celica GT-four and keep the civ good on gas

any input would be greatly appreciated

(ill post pics once it stops snowing and my car is clean)

If you think you can get a supra, i'd go with that, and just mod the civic for appearance. Sounds like you're off to a good start.

if ur gonna get a supra, then dont mod ur civic....because bolt ons will giv you almost NO power gain....


"civics are still a slush boxs...no matter wt u do..." (swaping n blowing are exceptions)


so i suggest you just make it a fun car untill ur supra...

get

intake for sound
exhaust for sound
retrofit to see...
rims for looks
and a drop to complete it....thast it...


then save up for ur supra

yeah thats what i was thinking because i know you can't get much out of the D17 engines without alot of work.....thats why i chose the Apexi neo becuase then i can just pull it out and install it in whatever else i get.

I think i might get a Celica Gt-four instead just because i have a feeling that the supra is going to be like the skylines around here... they are everywhere.
