i bought a lx but its a auto instead its so slow compared to all my other civics but i have some stuff i need to clarify

1.need help wiring a keyless entry

2.want to install a header but am nt sure which is the cheapest way to out the header on without switching over to the ex set up

3. want a cold air intake nt a short ram but like i said i have a auto so that might b blockn it from goin under so any ideas on how i cud get it away from the hot engine bay ?

4. mods i can do to get this lame auto running at its full potential until i get enough to do my kseries swap ?

 

1. You'll have to piece together a kit from either a salvage yard or used markets, as the components for keyless entry have been discontinued.

4. (Which will help you decide on questions 2 and 3.) Bolt-on components will yield unnoticeable power gains to the D17. By the time you'd invest in enough components to breath even a trifling amount of life in to the D17 via a naturally aspirated build, you could afford a turbo setup or the majority of a K-swap (either of which will yield far greater power gains for the money). I would suggest leaving the drivetrain alone until you can afford a turbo setup or K-swap.

 

I would suggest NOT doing any sort of major investing into an auto d17.
A turbo setup will more then likely cause you clutch pack issues pretty shortly.
