Default What would it take to be king?

What would it take to beat a camaro or mustang gt with my civic? I/h/e with nitrous, FI, just I/H/E by itself,etc. I have the SOHC VTEC engine but is quite anemic right now.

Will a Greddy turbo kit do the trick?

Where is the best place to get those from I have seen prices at $5,000 for those motors? But then I saw that someone on here got a J-spec H22a for about $2100, is there some special place or what?

The cheapest way would be to swap in a B18B and turbo it, or B18C and a 50-shot. I'm not sure on the engines, do a search in the Hybrid forum.

Nope.

The h22 is 2100 because there is some custom work that needs to be done in order to swap it in to a civic. And when the swap is done it not really a good daily driver.

Drop A b18c1 engine in it

then

AEM CAI
SKUNK2 CAM GEARS
SKUNK2 INTAKE MANIFOLD
AEM FPR
AEM FUEL RAIL
JET ECU UPGRADE
DC SPORTS 4-2-1 CERAMIC HEADER
TRUST BL EXUAST
ACT 3 STAGE CLUTCH
ULTRA LIGHT FLYWHEEL
70HP SHOT OF NITROUS

It sounds expensive but it will be worth it.
