Alright guys I've spent about 3 months searching and reading, as any good H-T member should do, and this is the set up I will be going for this coming summer/fall 2005 (got save up money). This set up will be in a 94 civic ex. Here ya go. (comments welcome but plz no convo about b swap)(might go FI down the road, some stuff prep for that just in case)

EDIT

So what do you guys think. cost of all new parts I'm looking at 5-6k
(internals, with exception of crank, and injectors will be new, but everything else i'll try to find used) thanks for comments

i have heard good things about the skunk 2 intake mani. Some say they have had i problem with fitment issues though. good luck on the build i'm planning on building up a z6 as well.

 

Thanks most likely gonna go with the Skunk2 mani but some more comments would help.

 

I hate to do this but......Bump......

Bumping for yourself=

 

honda pm3 pistons. flat top piston that will bump your compression significantly. flat top pistons are also the most efficient piston design known to man.
OEM rings are quite good.
get the crank lightened, balanced, and micro-polished.
shot peen the oem rods...they are actually good for 300hp.
p7p the head, but get a 5 angle valve job.
jg engine dynamics camshaft 85vt80.
endyn cam sprocket.
obd-0 injectors.
VRD ecu w/ vtec controller.
jg engine dynamics TB.
anything but a skunk2 IM.
yonaka coilovers.

extra...have the cylinder walls finished with a plateau hone so you can run a tighter piston-to-wall clearance. get a meziere electric water pump and run a dummy.

stay away from nos...its no good for an engine.

 

I'll look into the pm3 pistons and i was planning on doing all that to the crank just wasn't sure yet. I gonna stick with eagle rods, just feel better once im boostin, but turbo is gonna wait until around until 06 when i graduate hs. I'll make sure to stay away from skunk2 and nos. Thanks for the advise
