Rep Power: 324 Engine Swap: Hybrid
Anyone thought about this? Putting a Hybrid engine into our non-hybrid series Civic? Or a non-hybrid Civic engine putting it into a hybrid Civic? Heheh, talk about sleeper. LoL.

Rep Power: 0 Just lemme get this straight first cause axnvoyce is messin' me up...
This what i know
Hybrid = Chassis + Different engine
Hybrid Engine = i.e B20 + B18
Any car that is stock is a "Non-Hybrid"
So the Question is what is AznVoyce asking? putting in a new engine in our civic chassis
or working on making a hybrid motor?
Because in my P.O.V. this thread makes no sense...
Unless he's talking about swappin in a new motor into the new "HYBRID CIVIC"

Rep Power: 0 If I am understanding this correctly, we would try swapping our engines into the new Hybird Gas/Electric, thats an idea that might be cool. But swapping the engine out of ours for the Hybird one?, is that even a good idea, there is not much potential for those engines at all as far a tunning goes, so I guess my question would be why?
