Default What to do?

I have a 1991 Civic DX 4-door automatic with the stock motor and only an intake.
My friend who has a car just like it is trying to get his back to stock. He said he would trade me his 2 1/4 inch cat-back exhaust and a 4-2-1 header, for my stock exhaust and $90. He also said he would sell me his Mpfi setup for $120.
Should I buy that and probably run 17's since its an automatic, or should I Do a complete change over with a B16 and a manual trany?????

He also has a DOHC ZC motor with alluminum valves and titanium valve springs for about $800.

Do what you want, man. Make the decision yourself, just make sure that if you get the MPFI setup that you get the wiring conversion for it too. If you've got the money for it, buy it.

No one's your mom, we can't tell you what to buy.

go ahead and keep your car stock and pickup a 5spd HB for a couple hundred bucks and build on that. It would be a better starting point.

I also was thinking of just making my 4-door a show car. Its already shaved and has 16" crome rims. I probably will just buy a crx or HB for a drag car.
