That's true to a certain point... until I start modding it...
I have a feeling if I have this car, I'm going to want to soop it up. And with the money I'm spending now to soop up the STi, I can fund the Civic for a few months and like super soop up the Civic... Especially since it already has a b18 in it...
I was thinking something a long the lines of...
- Hot tanking and treating the block
- Possibly boring it over to 82mm
- Drop in higher comp pistons (and supporting mods)
- Balance the crank (upwards of 11k rpms, I want to rev at to 9500 only though)
- Full pnp head (with oversize valve
)
- A nice set of beefier cams (and supporting mods)
Andddd that's it... Slightly bigger pistons/cams, and other little small do dads to get the car running like how it should... Then throw together a nice i/h/e combo, ohhhhh and it already has a skunk2 manifold and bigger TB!!!
I'm excited!
