How much faster can my 1999 Civic SI be with bolt ons?
My car is currently 100% stock. Planning to a lot of bolt ons in the future. Just wondering how fast my car could get and horsepower.

Not really so much faster as to be worth it. Just spend that money on a good set of coilovers, make that ho handle.

With all imaginable bolts-ons that you could do and leaving the internals stock. You still won't be able to crack 14's at the drag strip. 15 second quarter mile street cars are not fast in today's standards.

You have two options. Either spend a boatload of time researching and matching parts, and a boatload of money buying those parts, and shave a half second off, or spend less time, and a little more (if not possibly the same) amount of money, toss some form of forced induction on there, and shave a couple seconds off. Unless you're doing class racing with specific requirements, the decision is pretty obvious. If you're doing class racing, the answer is "figure out what the guy beating you has, and do that."

I/H/E B16A2's usually put down like 140-145WHP...depending on the header you use.
That translates into mid/low 15sec quarter mile times if you can drive.
Leave it stock or atleast keep your stock parts. They're worth more money that way.
