So my civic's 1.5 is a lil too sluggish for my lead foot and im wondering wut kind of upgrades i can make to get more *** out of her.

I'm more knowledgable about regular mechanics then the performance part and I've seen many "super chips" and "performance computers" that supposidly give u like 50hp haha. So im looking for sum concrete experience-based suggestions.

I'm not looking for 300hp or anything (I couldnt afford it). Just sumthin to beef it up a little.

Thanks

 

bump

 

get some nice headers intake exhaust maybe a cam its not gonna do much for a 1.5 but it will be a bit better.

 

header, exhaust, full cai intake, get an ex/si transmission, im not sure how much better a z6 intake mani flows but you could try that,etc etc. how much you willing to spend? you could do a mini me with a vtec head to bump compression, get a ecu chipped and tuned with something like crome. or you could take that same chipped ecu, get a small cheap homemade turbo kit and put down 160-180whp pretty easily on a good tune. all comes down to money :D

 

do you have an aluminum spoiler and altezzas?

 

not n e more thats a pic of when i first bought it, its all stock now i just dont have any good pics

 

Yeah bro, If your looking for just a little improvement in fun to drive try these to start. Intake Headers and exhaust, ex/si tranny, lightwieght flywheel, and Nitrous
This will keep the drivability, and wont cost much money at all.
