Not too bad.. looks like you put a lot of work into it.
and just to help you out a little bit... What is the brand name of your header? You only have one by the way. Also.. shocks and struts are not two different things. What is the brand name of your steering wheel?
Any more plans for the engine?

That's cool man. Well, if you stick around here you'll get plenty of exposure, you'll meet a lot of other civic owners.. and you'll learn a lot as well. And eventually you'll be eligible for featured ride.Silvernight01ex said:
JDM makes the HEADER lol and idk who makes the steering wheel, probably a knock off but it is soposed to be a JDM, also i am looking to get a new cam, have the computer remaped and maybe a new converter.....a lot more HP for the money

actually JDM is an acronym for "Japanese Domestic Market" meaning a part made by a japanese company. So your JDM header is made by some type of Japanese company. I was just wondering if you knew what the name of that company was.Silvernight01ex said:
As far as remapping the computer... I believe you're talking about chipping it... which is something us 7th gen guys can't do. You're going to end up either having to get an AEM EMS, or a GReddy EManage which are both some $$$. The new converter.. I'm assuming you mean the catalytic converter... will help a little.. maybe 3 whp... so don't expect too much from it.
But it sounds like you have some good plans. I'm looking forward to watching your car progress.
How could this guy have such a nice car and NOT know this stuff........... who wants to whip out teh BS flag?????
No i knew what JDM ment, i was not sure where u were going with the question of who makes it, since any true tuner knows about JDM, and not a cat converter i mean a torque converter, and i know a company named Godspeed located in MI, that will do a remap of your computer which will change your limts of the car and add some hidden power in your engine
i dont know much about working on a engine, but i do know that there is no point in putting a turbo on this car, which will only add about 7psi to the engine, which means nothing.....so why spend 3000+ on something that wil not do much, when u could spend half that on other stuff to make your car faster.... i know that this is not a car made for speed....i mean come on a SOHC vtech is nothing in the world of racing, plus i have added about 500lbs in all the mods, the only thing set up for race is my hood lol

VTEC not vtech
Torque converter.. are you going with the levelten? If so, let me know how well it works when you get it.
With a turbo, you can adjust the psi.. 8 - 10 is safe on stock internals.. that's an estimated 80 to 100 whp. That's WAY more than you're going to get with the mods you listed.. and it can be had for under 2 grand. BUT, I'm assuming you have an auto since you're upgrading the torque converter.. so you could only run about 4 psi safely which would be 40 hp.. but that would still be more than you're going to get for the mods you listed.
You'd be surprised what an SOHC VTEC engine can do... but you do have a VERY good point with the extra 500 lbs. That hurts a bit. lol.

actually it has been known that you can get an est. 100-150 horse if you do the mods i said right....but it takes a lot of time on the dyno and knowing how to make it work right with your timing....and ya i do have an AUTO, but like i said in the beginning....ITS A SHOW CAR lol, i just like to hold my own when the time is right....
