an APC logo on the windshiled will net 100% HP... sorry i had too..

Best things for that engine as far as bolt on's is exhaust. from header all the way back.... I used GReddy on my prelude. I also turboed it and ran about 11 PSI. You can get a header, intake, high flow cat, muffler (cat back system), pulleys, new fuel rail, and thats about all your gonna get with bolt ons.

only big horsepower gains you are going to get is gonna be steering away from the b16 or adding something to get away from the natural aspiration.

Other options would be a dry nitrous kit..

sell the ricer and get something with a V8 would be the smartest thing you could do

Dont need to lose the ricer cause I already got a 99 s-10 on bags and Cadillac Eldorado w/ a Northstar V-8 The civic is just for fun

Best bet would be 5sp conversion, then a junkyard turbo setup on it and exhaust. Best bang for the buck.

A turbo is the best way to make power on that motor, of course an exhasut would be first, but a turbo will get you into the 13's if built right.

NO NO NO..This is the best thing swapo the motor to a 94-up integra gsr fuck bolt on's on that motor doesnt help alot,a swap will be alot better.and will cost you just about what yoiu got.believe me will like a bigger motor on that civic.
