Hello all, i'm relatively new to the civic, and this is the first civic i have ever owned, it an 89 DX hatchback with the D15B2, i noticed that SKunk 2 makes an intake for these engines, but you have to convert to MPFI, and i am unaware even after searching how you do this conversion. Now i'm not looking for acheiving a 12 second car or even anything close to that, i'd just like to acheive some better performance and to make the car a little more fun to drive.
my ideas of ALL upgrades are
the skunk2 manifold,
MPFI conversion,
header, exhuast
Crower 10.5:1 pistons
for engine.
for body, it's already custom painted as that's how i received the car but i'd liek to go with a CF hood and the Extreme Dimensions FEELZ 8 peice body ( always was a sucker for flared out fenders, why i own an 86 Conquest TSi)
now as i said, i'm just lookign for some minor performance gain to make it more fun, without impacting gas mileage too severely. i love having around 40 MPG.

For the most part that will show you what to do and how to do it, if you want a more detailed version of the switch go to club civic they have a solid FAQ on how to do this swap. Running a 12 while still getting 40Mpg is gonna be a hard feat to accomplish, you can't have the best of both worlds haha
