Current Setup:
-four door, 5 speed, 1990 Civic Ex,
-gsr wheels, falken tires
-Neuspeed Race springs,
-94 sohc vtec motor,
-Kamikaze 4-1 header(I love this header
),
-apexi custom bent ws exhaust,
-New Exedy street/strip clutch
In Spring, should I not sell my car, adding the following:
-Neuspeed "yellows"
-v-afc(controller input?)
-Skunk2 IM(IM input?)
-Skunk2 or Exospeed Camshaft(input?)
-valves, springs, retainers (input on make?)
-better tires
-neuspeed strut tower bar(I know- wrong forum, but input?)
I included all the specs so you have an Idea of what I'm trying to build..
Keep in mind, this vehicle is my daily driver- so overly aggressive items are not practical for a 45 minute commute. Please advise me on this setup. I am hoping to make regular track/autoX visits next season.
I'm looking for a respectable 14.5 or better 1/4 time, I'm sure this setup is not enough for that, but hoping to get close..
Thanks in advance for your advice

dont get the skunk intake mani- i remember hearing that it dynoed at 1 hp and at the the fuel pressure was raise to 50 psi. edelbrock just came out with a nice im manifold for the y8, spade dynoed it at 5hp. id wait for the z6 one to come out.
i also replied to one of your posts in this thread too, check it out.

port the head, makes every other mod gain from it
get some shocks man!! just springs will ruin your suspension in under 30K
also consider raising the compression since your staying NA
also ive been told crower makes the best camshafts for a D series http://www.crower.com

in my above post I noted planning Neuspeed/Koni Yellows- but I'll def consider the port- how does this effect driveablity?
