yeah the biggest thing for me is the roof and the rear window, its prety much all open, the two seater thing is nice too. It the only honda like this, other than the s2k, but i cant really afford that so del sol it is!

How much heavier is a del sol compared to the average civic hatch? I always thought they were light cars

I always thought so too but i just looked it up, a civic is arround 1015 kg and a del sol arround 1350, i guess they beef up the frame to make up for the lack of roof so they body doesnt roll too much.

Trust me you'll be very happy with a boosted del sol!

I have my kit off my car at the moment, but if you are interested let me know. Its a T3 kit with everything. Made good power on it. Just took it for smog and refilling the A/C for the summer! Yup, I gotta have A/C in the 100+ degree weather!

The S model is about 2300lbs, but if you are looking at the VTEC its about 2500lbs.

lots of mis-information in this thread. stop measuring power in psi people, psi does not matter. B16's can handle over 300 hp at the wheels.
