I just recently bought a 94 civic dx and it came with an si gauge cluster. Also if you are going to be doing a motor swap you can save some time and do everything while doing the swap.

Actually the DX has 102hp from the factory.
I'll echo the **** about not modding that motor too.
Swap all the way.

94 Civic DX
D15B7
Power (bhp@rpm): 102@5900
Torque (ft/lbs@rpm): 98@5000
Compression Ratio: 9.2:1
reline at 7000rpm
YES the gauge cluster from the 92-95 civic ex/si will plug and play

It will take some money to install a turbo and get all the parts. Just save it for the swap and put the money into there.

put a vtec head on it
i ran a 15.6 with just a head on my 89 dx sedan
but i will echo what was said before and just swap something nice in. you could also turbo what you've got and keep the turbo parts to add to the b series ylou will swap in. ive got a turbo setup going in this month, if i end up going b18a/b before i sell the car i will be able to buy an exhaust manifold and bolt the rest of my setup to it.

What is “performance” to me it’s many things, not just speed. The cost and efficiency are just as important to me than an ET time. To me a well-tuned DX getting 135 HP, 42mpg, and all for the cost of bolt ons, is a pretty good deal. I’m going for weight in my search for speed. I’m fabricating lighter front and rear lower control arms, and Wilwood calipers going in all around. I’m hoping to shed about 200 lbs from my DX, faster , better MPG, and better handling, that’s a good deal in my book .If all your after is 12sec ET’s and beating Mustangs, and you’ve got 3 to 5 grand burning a hole in your pocket, then put your money into a swap.

I put $500 into a Z6 swap and $375 into a used nitrous setup.
