Either turbo it, or sell it and buy a fast car.

If you want your car to go faster, spend about 2 weeks READING.

Seriously, check the stickies. There's only a MASSIVE GUIDE in there about how to make a civic fast.

Let me condense it for you: $5000 for boost (it could cost you less than half of that, but I'd bet you want instant gratification, not parts hunting) or $10k+ for a built to hell motor.

Put a Fender vents on and plenty of performance company stickers. If that doesnt work(definitely will) than do the "ferrari 458 mod" or if on a budget "5.0 coyote mod", can be found on google or dupont registry.

Hope that helps

OP, you've received some good advice. Do the required reading and then repost a thread with more specific questions.
