I have a 98 civic EX coupe and I just bought a SI Enigine for it. Is there anything I can do to modify the engine before I put it in and what are the best parts I should put under the hood to make it as best as it can be. I don't know to much about cars but I want the best in my civic. Any responses will be very appreciated...
Thanx....

check the clutch and put a new one in if ur unsure or if it needs it. Its a hellofa lot easier doing it now rather than later. Also ur basic i/h/e would help. Besides that u looking at a few other things without getting into the motor.

lol... guys guys.

My modding skills > me.

I tried to move Rhennin's thread over to this one and then delete the other one, but instead it made a brand new thread in this section, which I have no jurisdiction under.

you have to tell us what you want out of the engine before we can tell you what you should do. and you need to tell us what your budget is

Pretty much I want it to be able to drive fast as hell but its still stock and drives slow. I haven't installed the SI engine yet I just bought it and I need to know what parts should be replaced and what parts I need to make it drive better and faster. Sorry if I'm not detailed enough. Oh and if possible what brand of parts should I buy from cuz there's a lot of brands.

sorry, i cant tell you what you should get in order to go fast... why do you want to go fast anyway? an Si engine can take you up to 120mph+

i think you should just drop the motor in the car, see if you think its fast, then mod.



btw 3 different mods posted in this thread and didn't move it. haha

no no, you can keep the b16 (si motor) to be honest with you tho, youre not gunna be able to easily mod a civic to have the power the 5.0 has. youre gunna be spending some big bucks if you want that.

mods have different jurisdictions persay. For instance, I cant do s**t in the members ride area, but post in the 6th gen tech / suspension / classfieds / off-topic, and your mine :twisted:


To the OP, you can boost the motor, or fully build. But I believe this is the third time now, whats your budget?
