Default Help With Specs!!

I have a 97 civic coupe and i wanted to know if i was to put a gsr motor with stage 2 cams, short ram intake, intake manifold, port and polished headers, exhaust, throttle body, valvetrain, and traction bars what do you think i would be running on a 1/4 mile and how much whp would i be pushing? Now also i would like to know the same thing but if i was to spray a 100 shot? If you guys have any other opinions or things i should do please feel free to add thanks.

Hehehe! Just as good of an answer as any other.

FIPD33, it's not just about a parts list. There are millions of variables that go into an engines horsepower rating. Pick up some books, learn some of them, and go from there.

You should do a ton of research before spending a dime.

If you're serious about making power and making your car fast, you need to understand concepts. If you go online and buy random performance parts, you won't be nearly as happy as if you carefully planned your engine build and bought parts that are designed to work with your intended setup.

The list you provided did not include many details, primarily the brand and model of the parts. Make sure you know why you buy a part before you do.

I would start with basic maintenance before performance modifications.

Exactly! Familiarize yourself with your engine and general engine theory. The best performers are the ones that are built from the ground up with a concept in mind rather than bolting on random parts and kits.

Yea thats what i been doing. I posted this up and right away started browsing around the forum searching for info on different exhausts, intakes, etc. seeing what they do and whats recommended. But like i said i still have about 2 or 3 more months before anything starts. As of right now i'm just working on giving my car the SI look and stuff. Im glad you guys are helping, but also if you guys know any good parts or anything let me know and ill search them up and read about them. Thanks Again

Well, like I was saying before, you shouldn't be shopping for parts seperately, you should be shopping for parts to work as a system.

Decide what you want as a system, and then buy parts to coincide with your plan.
