ok i just finished my z6 vtec head swap into my 94 civic dx. the thing is slow as hell yes its got all stock parts but should it be that damn slow would swaping a ex tranny be worth it and what now please let me know what i should do

 

Yes, an EX/Si transmission will be a good investment (assuming you are going to keep the d-series).

 

OK here is the big question should i stay with a d series motor or are the single cams not worth the effort or should i switch to a B series instead

 

It depends on your power goals and the use of the car.

Read the FAQ.

 

I like my d. Ive got a y7 and in a couple of weeks ill have a y8 head on that. Save ur money and turbo the d instead of buyong a b. Is it any faster than before you swaped heads?

 

Idk i bought it for 500 with a blown head gasket and did the mini me so who knows

 

Ah wel it would be a pretty noticeable gain over the stock d15.

 

yea you guys think that Intake and exsaust would make a diff to

 

It will make a diff in ur throttle response mostly. It will give ya a lttle hp depending on part choice say a powerchamber and an cat back apexi n1 my geuss is ull gain 5- 10 hp

 

Hey guys sorry this has nothing to do with the thread but I need to know how to get out of this trial user ****, i cant even post in most threads, please help!!!!

I think you will get flamed more for typing "v-tech" than he will for asking about the trial period...

The trial period lasts 5 days.

I/H/E will give a little bit more power, but mostly just noise. If you're going to go that route, get a cheap CAI with a K&N filter, an eBay header, generic exhaust shop 2.25" crush bent piping, and a decent muffler (like an Apexi WS2).

 

yea sorry man got it mixed up with my little sisters toys!lol And thats one more reason for me to get one!

nicely said.

 

the dx trani and the ex trani arnt that much diff... i have a freind wit a 92 hatchback with a stock d15 b7 and its running a bout 12.5 sec on a quarter mile and he swaped the trani for the ex trani... not much diff. the only diff was 3rd and 4th gear

 

i for got to say he has the dx model...
