What's your budget..? It's gonna take a good amount of money to get that high.

Say what? Are you saying the stock D16 (1.6L) is 304 hp? Not possible unless it's boosted (which you didn't mention).

True dat. If it's a stock 96 civic, at best you're rocking 110whp at the wheels. 96 civics only came with a d16 (specifically, a -y8 in the ex making 127bhp or the -y7 making 106bhp). 99-00 Si's came with a b16a2 making 160bhp. Mind you, those are all stock figures
