Default boosted uk d

hey all
i'm from the uk and have been hanging around here for a year or so as a guest after tips and info on boosting my 91 civic. thought it was about time i registered and posted my ride.

i roll in a 91 civic hatch that i had for about 3 years. had a d14a1 when i got it but then swapped in a d16a9 dohc, no vtec, i guess its the same as the usdm dohc ZC.

ok so heres my setup:

2.5" downpipe with flexi
custom 3" exhaust system with hks super dragger end can
2.5 intake pipes
xs power 50mm bov
450cc dsm blue tops
walbro 255lpr fuel pump
safc hack
mbc
aluminium alternator pulley
adjustable cam gears
eg6 stock half size radiator, (with gangsta lean)
energy motor mount inserts
koni yellows
eibach springs
fully polybushed except rear camber arms
ebay short shifter
projector headlights
chrome rear lights
crx front lip spoiler
crx dash, door cards, seats, heaters
crx bonnet with bulge
eg6 vti wheels with stock 195/55r15 pirelli tyres

there is still loads i need or want to do but being broke isnt helping.
still need to have it tuned a bit better, am waiting for a reply from xenocron for a wideband so i can tune it. i do plan on tuning with turboedit but i dont have the cash yet to do that

tell me what you guys think of my ride,, opinions are always welcome
thanks

I think he went the right route. DOHC 1.6 > SOHC 1.4 hands down.

Nice project and welcome to the site

nice set up spend some money on some traction bars and that will take care of that radiator situation and give you more room
