So the 02 civic coupe and its blazing 115hp got boring, quick. So my options are K series ftw, which isnt the most cost effective swap ever. Hmt the d17 which is still the most expensive engine out on the market to build the internals and the original intake mani cracks at 12psi so a d16a6 mani has to be modded in order to prevent gayness.

Or ditch the civic and go with something more baller status considering im still in high school, either an ep3 si which sorta have a look of their own, or a rsx type s that is reliable to get me to school and work.

And last option would be to buy an older car( eg, ek) and take the risk of my ---- getting jacked by every gangster wannabe in the puget sound area.

 

d16a6 manifold?

if you're still in high school just suck it up and turbo the civic. who bought your car?

 

Me, i worked for a year for the same retail company saving everything i could while driving a piece of ---- 92 crown vic. The dealership was asking 10 and i pay 8 out the door for it.

 

well in that case sell it and buy something older, say an 88 hatch, swap a b18a in it and turbo :P

 

Yea but i live in an area where i dont know anyone who hasnt got their eg jacked before even with every percautionary device.

 

then find a car that isnt a honda.

 

 

rx7. find a turbo II, keep it completly stock under the hood, suspension, brakes and tires...have a blast with it.
