Low end torque

[X-CiViC]

What can I do to my civic to be able to pick up quicker in lower rpms? Thats all I wanna know!! Thanks

swap a motor, and get a really good header. and when you race. ride the s**t outta clutch. thats all.

 

[matts2ksi]

yeah, swap to a much better engine, B18 or an H22! Even my B16 is pretty shy off the line. It pulls though when I let it run up to 7K rpms

 

[EndlessEM2]

H22 and B18 doesnt fit in a EM2 silly gooses. if you want a motor swap your gonna have to go with a K20 =P

from what i heard 4-2-1 header adds some lowend torque.

 

[mymmeryloss]

yeah. depends on the manufacturer, but usually a 4-2-1 is ur best bet

wont work. you can bore it to 1.8 and some change, more than that is going to have too thin of cylinder walls.

i agree!
for the amount of money you put into it, you mind as well sell the car and get a faster car
civics do perform pretty well in AutoX. maybe you should start looking into that?
