i like the DC Sports strut brace,but the manifold in red doesn't look nice, i think the stock white one look better.

No i broke it as it was worth more in parts than as a car, I think it got about 210bhp on the CW rolling road day. I totally think you should keep your car for a long time, do lots of little thinks to it bar performance, then drob the b16a engine in to it, really easy to do and with 160bhp from the 1.6 its a great investment.

i like to stay with this engine coz everyone swapping B16 or K20 into their civics... i just want to be different. I know its difficult to make lots of hp in D16 without turbocharger but i want to show what N/A D16 can do... people sayin "modifying D16 is wasting of money" but i want to do it. I thinking about sports clutch, flywheel, camshaft and new ECU of course... but we've see what ideas gonna come into my head grin thanks anyway

Their is a user on a site i use who does alot over turbocharger work on these engines, all home made.

I can see what you say about N/A power but with this type of engine it is wastless money. You can get alot more going the turbo route.

Even by ringing it's neck you won't get as good as either the Vti engine (sorry don't know the XXX name of it) or the K20.

All the best with the HP route, a K20 Turbo charged with std looks would be brill.

like i said before i dont wanna swap the engine and i dont think turbo in front wheel drive is good idea, i dont want to put into this car 10k because i've got in my plan to buy a different car in next 3 years and i think if i get from this engine around 160hp, this makes me happy... if you put all these parts together like exhaust, cai, clutch, flywheel, camshaft, cam gear, ECU... i probably get that many horses, im only 19 thats way i didnt bought VTi version of this civic
