Haha. You need to do ALOT of research buddy unless you plan on running that snail untuned.

 

I can't wait for the next couple of years to go by... I'm going all motor in mine, going to be fun.

 

Yea I think all motor is always the most reliable, but you gotta admit, BOV's are like sex. That's why I would love to get a nice little turbo done sometime.

the most reliable is all in the tuning.... if reliablity was an issue, you wouldn't see cars come stock turbo dont you think?<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by 90CRXLS &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">Haha.

Don't worry about this right now. The car is brand new and can handle the power that the motor is putting out. Just get the car and drive.

 

thanks, went to the local honda place and they didnt have it, so i got to go out of town to another honda place and gona test drive it

 

Good luck finding one to test drive. I didn't get to test drive one and I can't find one anywhere that isn't sold once it comes in.

 

What king of ECU I can get to rave higher then 7000rpms

 

Yea good luck on the test drive... the Honda here they don't even get the MSO in before they sell the car... so they cannot even move it

 

Do a track day or autocross then see if you still need it.

Well the stock ECU lets you REV higher than 7000 rpms, so rev your heart out.

How about the stock ECU? It doesn't cut until 8500, although the redline is 8000 and the happy light starts being furious at 7500.

I thought it popped you out of gear at 8250?

 

8500rpm? this only applies to the SI right?

 

Did you say you wanted a turbo? I was looking around on eBay for parts when i stubled upon this.

I have a feeling the Seller really doesn't know anything about civics. But i guess he somewhat cleared him self by saying D17.

It will let you bounce the rev limitor all day. I don't know of a car that pops out of gear at a certain RPM... If there is such a one, I would be scared of it, cause without a load (being popped outta gear) you will rev even higher....

 

You can usa an 05-06 rsx type s flywheel and clutch, if you want to

That's true, I just about crap my pants everytime I hear one.

 

I'm going to try to do stock all they way.... just the brakes and tires and going to take it to the full race track, just to see what stock Si could do!

Here is where I got my info from. This guy said it popped out around 8300. I have not gotten my civic yet, so I wouldn't know.
