First thing first bro i would defineatly get rid of those 17's and put some 15's because they are not only adding unnecasary weight but also creating an uncomforable ride and could cause a slight bit of sluggishness. If u want horsepower your gonna want to start out with a swap cause u really cant do to much on that single cam non-vtec u got there. If u swap at least a ls motor and tranny u will have ok hp and decent tq and if u feel that is not enough boost it. If u wanna go all motor u should get a dohc vtec and do a full build.

If u want my opinion i like the duckbill spoiler on the eg not on the ek... u should get the type-r... looks way better.

That's what I keep hearin man now the problem is that I don't exactly have that kinda money at the moment I want to do a gsr swap then it would be nice to do a type r conversion on the outside but that takes a lot of money.........now since I'm only pullin in certain amounts of money a month wit payments on da car so I was wonderin if there is any way to get v tec.....like a mini me swap or something along the line of that I just wouldn't mind gettin a a v tec head, but the main thing I want and need is an exhaust,intake,header and I would be good for now now what would u recomend for somethin like that and ya I don't relly care for my 17s I wils like some 15 or 16 inch rotas not sure which ones I want I did want slips for my ed6 but I sold that that thing is in crapy condition too

craig u talk funny on here lol. but yea wait till u see what ur old ef is going tobe doing when it comes out of the garage lol. its getting painted, wheels, glass fixed, dash fixed and the motor will be swaped after awhile. justin already has plans for that car. but yea hope some people get back to u on this. this is my 0.02$ but i would get 15 inch wheels lowering kit piping the hole way back from aftermarket header, i can get a sohc vtec head for like 50 bucks from this guy i know in west v but get that vtec head milled down and port and polished (p&p) that will raise ur hp lil by lil p&p the intake manifold. and do what ever else u want done and get those widows tinted if u can. im hopefully going to get that civic tomorrow after night school. lol im bored lata bro
