i don't have one but i do know someone that does and how would it affect a daily driven car unless your talking about that power that pushes you back in your seat when the throttle is pushed down all the way then yeah it's not for you just stick with the stock motor j/k it only affects the fast cornering aspect of driving just put a 26mm rear sway bar and that might help out the understeer and a LSD won't hurt

Stiffer front springs will help you as well....

people say that but i don't get why they would help doesn't the weight of the engine still push down on the wheels with stiffer springs but it will keep the front of the car from moving down a lot when you brake i guess

im a little lost on the stiffer front springs. this seems it would contribute to understeering.

i would like to see what haveing softer springs would do, with a swaybar up front. and of course teh whole back stiffened up with sway and stiffer springs.

also the front of the car moving down alot when you brake? if you dont have abs i thought it is good for teh front to dive. it puts more weight on the front wheels that do all the stopping. ever seen an m coupe dive into a turn thats what it does dive. (i dunno if it has abs or what ever) but i thought diving is good for braking. of course there is the exception if your like me and your tires are always bald. diving is bad.

any thoughts

Trey

If you don't have stiffer springs up front it will plow in hard braking and turning thus causing undesierable effects. the stiffer springs will compensate for the additional weight and make it feel more neutral.

whats the handlig like w/ just normal civic spring rate springs and no sway bars or anything on a 92-95 hb?
