Tuning or upgrade options!?
Hey I'm new to the Honda game, got my first one it's a 98 civic coupe, 5 speed, d16y8, and I have a header back exhaust, intake, lowered, rota slips, and stock ecu. What would be a good upgrade to do next?
Thanks in advance

Simple/easy DIY would be nitrous, maybe a 50 shot.
With that said, there are many things that can be done, good "upgrades" are things like suspension and brakes, better radiator, better ign. systems, better tiers, replacing bulbs with LEDs put less of a load on the alt., not to mention engine modes pistons/rods and valve train/cams, the list is almost endless, up to and including an engine swap.
It all depends on what you want to use the car for, and how deep your pockets are.94

I'm very interested in boosting this engine or possibly going with a b18 of some sort and boosting that! And ideas for that route ( boosting the d series first I guess)
