Okay, next well you seem to like power more than handling so add the I/H/E!!! Intake Headers and Exhaust, this will greatly increase the performance of your civic especially since you have F/I. If you have more money to spend I would also get some Neuspeed Sport Springs NOT RACE they lower the right amount and you don't have to worry too much about scraping. AND a bounus is they work well with the stock dampeners. Let us know when you get those steps done and we will take you from there.

Fuel, ignition and sparkplug upgrades if you dont already have them. A new clutch to help put that power down. Kamikazi header with the 2.5 in collector along with 2.5 in piping to your exhaust. Some motor mounts. Some guages to maintain your boost. Hope that helps.

Yeah, they work with the stock dampeners...the question is, for how long?

The rods on the stock dampeners are not made to be used with lower springs. Putting lower springs on stock dampeners can cause them to bottom out, and they will wear out in no time... Save yourself some time, money and frustration and just replace the dampeners when you do the springs.

When considering a header just remember that the Kamizaze is NOT CARB certified. This should not be a big deal as you can take it off pretty easily once every year (or two) but something to remember. If that happens to be an issue with you take a look at the JG Edelbrock Pro-Flo header. I have done a **** load of reaserch and this one has the largest primaries of any 4-2-1 (larger than Greddy, DC, Neuspeed, Apexi, etc) I could find. We're talking marginally here, about 1 or two milimeters on the inside, but if your throwing down the money you may as well get the biggest (second to Kamikaze). Lastly remember it is important with a JRSC to get a stainless steel system rather than the ceramic coated. The SC increases the exhaust temperature significantly and this helps to wear down and crack a ceramic coated header in a short while.
