Rep Power: 0 Need help with 2000 si
Okay so heres the scoop. I just bought a 2000 civic si. From what i hear it makes about 135 hp to the wheels. Im looking to get close to 200 before i throw a turbo kit on it. Can i get some help as to what parts i should buy? The only thing i have done to it now is intake and exhaust. And i just ordered a exedy stage 1 clutch and flywheel. Any help would be appreciated, thanks (:

The USDM Si Civic produces 160HP. Unless you're from Canadaland? I think their Si is our EX equivalent. As far as power goes, you might wanna think of getting headers to add to your exhaust system. You won't really see any gains with just an intake and a minor exhaust upgrade.

You want to get to 200 hp BEFORE you put on a turbo kit??
Thats almost impossible and would be totally counter productive, you want to do a N/A build in preparation for a F/I build.

Well played, sir. Well played. Either way, the advice I gave is a good place to start. That was in response to le Kenny. Lol.

Yeah, that's gonna be pretty hard to do. If you plan on going the F/I method, internal upgrades, without a doubt. But like the others said, 200 to the wheels with N/A, I've never heard of it in the EM1.
