From Show to Go
Well, i am officially making my car a sleeper. I am completely tired of the show theme, for it gets old fast... and i love racing a lot more. i am going back to stock exterior, taking off my kit and my rims, going to either 15 or 16" black/gunmetal rims with some drag radials. I just thought i'd share...
just leave the exterior and work on engine stuff, it looks nice the way it is, if u go back to stock it will look weird, im done on exterior mods on my car and im just keeping my money for when i get a new car

i have stock interior and yes i am going turbo
the other reason why i am giving up the "show" is because this is a daily driver and i dont like not being able to go in some driveways and into some parking lots because of my delicate fiberglass kit. it also adds more weight

I would not do turbo with air ride. Your going to regret it. I was going to do the same but I decided not too. I lose a tone of traction once i put my air ride on. My friend has that setup on his 99 Si. he wants to lose his bags and get tein coilovers now. Think about it first.
As for the show to go. Are you going from one to another because you can not get anything from showing, or are you that much into power. Honestly you can only do so much with a civic as far as racing goes without putting your motor at risk. I would suggest you go for both. You get noticed and respected with a nice car, where as you only get respected with a fast car.
