Default best low end power mod?

I tried the ol' search button, and came up with nothing here. I'm happy with my high end power (even though, all I have is AEM CAI)

Basically, I'm looking for the best punch off the line. I got into it with a highly modded civic the other day, and whatever he had done to produce the low end power.. I want it! Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

I've heard pulleys are a good low end power mod..

but remember Honda and low end power are two words that do not function together

Just keep your revs high, stay in VTEC, then you will never be in "low end"

That extra punch off the line that you are looking for usually results in tire smoke. If you want a stronger launch, then put in an aftermarket clutch, adjustable shocks, and some sticky tires.

hell naw! hehe....in walks the H23...
I don't think you can do it w/ new ludes, but w/ my 92 Si, just advance your timing a few degrees for a good bit of torque. Also, pulleys are good. If you have a little bit of cash, nitrous is good; if you have a lot of cash, a supercharger is your best bet. I love being able to hold revs at 1.8k, dump the clutch and go!

i agree, i would say a supercharger would give you a considerable boost in low end and mid-range power. but it's not necessarily a cheap mod.

A dry setup is very reliable when tuned right & w/ gauges, and it's around 500 bux
