hp gains
I am very new to the car scene and I currently own a 99 civic si. Like any car fanatic, I want to go faster. The car is my daily and I'm not looking for a crazy amount of hp. You guys tell me what would be a reasonable hp goal for this car. My budget is also very small. Currently I have 1k to put towards the car, but I am also looking for long term goals so... Turbo? Engine swap? Sell car and find better?

Re: hp gains
First car huh?
Here's something I wish someone told me when I was on my first car.
KEEP. IT. STOCK.
Learn how to keep up with the maintenance, and learn the in-s and out-s of cars.
Ultimately, save up for something better.

Re: hp gains
If you only spent a grand for the car it sounds like you won't have a lot to put into it in the immediate future. What model and transmission is yours? If you have an EX (Vtec) with manual transmission it could be a fun car to drive with some suspension work. Cornering is where it's at.. don't worry about straight line speed.
