I got a 95 civic lx, non v-tec, and im looking to get some power out of it. I have a cat back exhaust and an intake now, but i want something more serious. I dont think i have the money for a turbo and all the components you need with one, so i need something else. Can anyone tell me what a racing chip would do for my car, and any other things i can do for more power. Somebody suggested i get adjustable cam gears, and a lightwheight flywheel. If anybody can give me any suggestions or tell me what kind of power i may get from this, thatd be great. Thanks

 

I'd just save up for a swap because you really wont get very much power from that motor.

 

how much do you think i could get a swap for, and what do you think i should put in?

 

Header 150-300 bucks Get that you pay for. Im about to pull off a cheap chikara
and put a used DC Header on there. Should have just gone DC first.
Camshaft - goodluck
Nitrous Zex 500 bucks

I was putting 100 hp to the wheels with an i/h/e combo plus an MSD ignition, wires, external coil, and a ACT clutch and 9lb flywheel. This is only a few horsepower off from a stock Sohc Vtec Engine. But our cars are lighter so we still run faster times. I pulled a 16.4 on worthless tires. Im getting better (bigger, stickier) tires and will run sometime this year and hopefully get a better time. I think this set up should bring me into the 15's with traction. Granted high 15's but hey, still decent. Keep the D15 and make something of it. Then go buy an RSX type-s like I did for fun.

later

You can find b16's for 1200-1400 with engine, trans, ecu, and the whole shibang. B18C1 (gsr) swaps for around 3000, and ITR swaps for 4500-5000ish

im gunna have to totally agree with ya here...shoot a 75shot until she goes (maybe it wont) and for the cost of the nitrous kit you could buy urself a low mileage SOHC VTEC swap
