I'm sure you guys have had a billion of these questions pop up, but I'm just confused right now on what to buy...I have around 500 to spend...see sig for mods...Help rick james out y0

BTW I'm looking into performace mods, nothing for looks right now...Want to stay NA..may go nitrous down the road..but for now I want to stay all motor

Street Ghost

Maybe some good shocks if you don't already have any.

SoldMyEM1

That is a good idea, I am still riding on stock shocks, but I was planning on getting some tein coilovers in the near future...Im looking just to get something tomorrow that will give me the most power for the money...

nitrous!...or maybe some ctr cams, maybe ctr pistons...i dunno? $500 really isnt that much when it comes to honda performance...is there anything you dont like about your car right now?

SoldMyEM1

Its too slow? I was thinking about an AEBS manifold and a CTR intake cam...Would that make noticable gains on the butt dyno?

Formula 1

ctr intake cam, jdm ctr pistons and as much tuning as u can get or just spend all the money on tuning

that sounds good... or just get a pair of skunk2 stage 1's....

SoldMyEM1

I dont really wanna mess around with pistons...But the CTR cam is probably one of the things Im going to buy..what about the AEBS manifold and CTR intake cam combo..then in 2 weeks or so Ill get it tuned with my VAFC...AEBS mani and CTR intake cam or

Just put it into a turbo kit. You say you want to stay N/A now but most people end up going turbo anyway.

No can do mayne...Im already forced to eat off the dollar menu due to my obnoxious love for the civic

he may not want NA

turbo is cool, but its becoming a things where people who cant build NA motors just boost em.

Happyman

Or its because for a street setup/daily driver you really can't have a fast N/A...sure you can but how does 12+:1 compression with some lumpy *** cams like to idle?

Formula 1

its called skunk2 stage 2 cams, full valvetrain, and 92 octane gas, if u get above 12.5, u gonna need full tank of 92 plus half gallon of race gas prolly

only with stock motors

Kidloco51

Comptech rear sway combo was one of the best mods ever done to my Si--almost better than my cams. I think suspension it one of the best things money can buy.

Formula 1

either way 500 bux dont buy a whole lot. IMO if u gonan do suspension save for tein or some full coilover system, should run 650-1000

Or you could buy my one year old (just serviced) Koni Yellows and have some $$$ left over for springs.

Adam.

Nitrous will always give the most bang for the buck. 500 bucks for a nice 50 shot. Nothing else has the dollar/hp ratios that nitrous does.
