i am looking for a quick way to get a some more power without turbos or cams i would like to get about 30-50 horse more than stock i have a 03 civic ex completely stock
best bet is to buy a new car then
cause without a turbo, a quick 30-50 hp gain without building the motor for NA is almost impossible.

no i know its possible like different pistons or exhaust throttle body spacers things like that
You could always just get 40 horses and tie them to the front of your car.
Just kidding of course.
I would believe that it's going to cost you less just to do a turbo and get more out of it.

nitrous is the only way to do it without cams/engine work or a turbo.
i dont know turbo kits get pretty expensive were can i find one kinda cheap
haha nitrous or just do a turbo kit its the best thing 2 do in the end

nitrous doesn't last and it gets expensive to fill and a turbo can have turbo lag and has to be watched carefully cause if it goes then you cant
No offense, but this thread is going to be a flame fest. If you are asking these questions you havent done your homework. There are plenty of threads around this site to refer to. HP is never cheap or easy, nitrous is your best bet but if you are asking us these questions you probably shouldn't be playing with it.

If you don't want to do a turbo, your options are an engine-swap, or trading your car in.
cheapest way of getting another 40-60hp is to trade in your civic and just buy a used rsx.
this thread is retarded....do your research before asking stupid questions

u could try to rebuild a d17.... with high compression pistons, lighter rods, lighter flywheel...cams...plus tuning...
that might give you 30 hp...
expensive tho

I don't understand why you would op for pistons over cam when a cam is so much easier to put in.
You want easy power without the hassle get a crower stage 1 cam there is no tuning or engine mangement needed.

Not possible to do a cheap turbo kit, and its not possible to bolt on an easy 40+ HP. Boost or buy another car are your ONLY options!
