Hi guys im ready to boost my 2000 civic ex
I have an edelbrock kit but I plan on getting tuned on crome
blue top 450cc dsm injectors
a chipped p28 ecu
aem wideband o2 sensor
arp headstuds
(probably forgetting something ill add it later if I remember)

I also have a 3'' exhaust
I plan to get a 3'' downpipe because The edelbrock one is a 3'' but bottlenecks at the cat to 2.25''


I plan on getting tuned at Importautopros in Westminster ca
what else do I need??

Thanks guys

EDIT:
also have a 255lph? walbro fuel pump

3" exhaust is a complete waste if it crams into a 2.25" cat.

^^ true, go with a 3" cat if your hell bent on running one.

guess I should have said cat too

this isn't as much help as I thought it would be

anything else I need?

I was thinking an oil cooler but not too sure

An oil cooler would not help you in this case at all. Unless you plan on road racing the car.

That's the beauty of Hondas (and D-series), you don't need much.

Make sure you have a fresh set of plugs.

Did you do a compression test on the car beforehand? Couldn't hurt to have that on record to see in the future if you're gaining some blowby.

Speaking of blowby, do you have a breather? Catch-Can?

no.. no catchcan just a breather filter on the vc

so just slap everything on and go get tuned

You should get a breather kit on this before u shoot the dipstick out and blow your rings out
I learned the hard way...
It was fun boosting until I had to pull the motor. Haha fun while it lasted.
Guaranteed it would have lasted way longer w a good catchcan setup
