New 01 Civic Owner
Hey guys i been reading the forums for about 2 months now, ever since i got my civic which was about 4-5 months ago. I own 01 civic EX 5 spd... So far i got few things on the car ....intake, custom piping, exhaust, m3 mirrors, system, type r front grill and CF eyelids . Sad to say is im thinking about trading in the car already. 
I think the car is fine. But i feel like everyones faster...ive had 6 cars already and im only 20 ....had mx6 prelude hbcivic eclipse and a tracer. I have 1,600 bucks i was saving up for a turbo kit ...but really i don't know which way to go.... Im really looking at buying a VW golf 1.8T or used wrx.something with turbo in it already.....Any comments would be helpful. Thankx

i know what you're talking about because i traded my vic last year for an 03 gti...i don't really have any regrets BUT if i were you i would shoot for an awd turbo i.e. wrx or evo..that's of course if you have the money...oh and welcome to the site
Well Turns out they couldnt sell the Si.... so they sent it out to an auction. Went to look at the Golfs they were sexy but asking too much. I figure im going to stay with my civic and drop the 1,600 i got saved into it. I figure bodykit and rims. Well see.....
