Cheap Eg Mod?
What mods would you suggest for an VX Eg hatch cosmetic/engine/interior that I could get for under 90 bucks that would give me the most bang for my buck? Im just looking for something for my civic to make it look better//perform better.
Thanks
Thanks

Re: Cheap Eg Mod? (EGwhat!!!)
$90 Come on man.... you cant get anything for that. ok well if thats all you got then this is what i would think about, a mugen type lip its like $80, you could upgrade your headlight bulbs so you have better visibility at night, jdm corners, or some really cool stickers that say "powerd by Honda" i heard it gives you like 10hp. or some APC stuff thats always a good route.

Re: Cheap Eg Mod? (k20EP3)
wow i didn't even look at the OP all the way
come on man $90
there is only one thing that you can do and that is save it till you have more... a lot more.
try your best to get to 4 digits
that way you can improve your car and still save a little in the bank for when it breaks down.

LOL for the love of god tell me that you were just kidding!!!!!!!!!
all tho i would not believe you
and to answer your question
it does something called hydro locking and it will give you about a %40-%50 HP increase across the board

Re: (95jeremie)
wow.. alotta shitty advise. awesome thread!! not alot you can do w/ 90.00 and an VX hatch. i would suggest maybe a used short ram and a good filter. at least if you do a swap you can swap it over. weight reduction will work. just universal mods.. that will carry over to whatever you may want to do later is the best advise i could give

Well what do you have on there now? Is it completely stock?
Buy a cheap header and a short bore intake.
Buy 'em both for ebay, you're driving a stock VX, it doesn't matter.
