bro .. this might be a help to you .. and get the projector angle eye head lamp ... turbo is good cause you 'll difnitely feel the difference and can easily get the additional HP ... like me .. hahahaha .. i'm using B16A upgrade turbo & i believe there's a lot of KL guys also having the same mod as me ...

Well.. turbo is a good option.. but NA has the feel that turbos just don't have.
Turbo lag is also an issue, if you're plannning on using big turbos.

But before thinking power upgrades.. get good brakes.
Big brake kits of the Type R 5 lug conversions will help 'maintain' your car and your life.. :P

So my order would be

1) brakes
2) engine upgrades
3) transmission
4) bodykits.

Going NA or Turbo?

pictures... head to the 'Post your Beloved Civics' area.. lots of choices there.

bro,
have you ride in a vtec turbo before .. try first then you comment on the performance .. i'm using B16A turbo and I don't face the lag problem ...

Yes.. turbos have no lag, right.......
Everyone says that..so you ask me if I've driven a turbo but have you driven a 200+whp NA yet?

The difference is in the throttle response... If that's not lag, what is? let off the throttle till you drop off the boost, then press again.. feel it?

The problem is, you're comparing the throttle response to paltry NA machines making 130hp or less.

bro .. i have been playing with NA before and no doubt on the reponse of throttle on NA but for turbo if your combination and tune in proper you'll know what i mean ... just my 2 cents ... you fancy NA I'm happy with my upgrade ...

Yes.. turbos are good for straightline acceleration.. who said otherwise?

You know.. I always hear that from turbo owners.. My turbo no lag.. :P

The way it works means that it needs time to spool up.. there's always lag.. it's just a matter of how little lag there is.

Still, I like turbo as much as I like NA. So I'm actually feeling like looking in your engine bay for a look.. (^_^)

So.. care to share your engine specifications? Like what turbo size you're using.. hybrid or not.. management is by what ECU?

I think your car should be more powerful than a stock 1.6NA.. no doubt about that.. depending on how much boost.. could even be powerful than the type R.

Show! Les' action!

BTW mine is only basic stage .. couple of my friends are running on B20B,racing cam & GT3540 turbine ... crazy man .....

[CKCL_63]

kinda scary when driving .. but normally when I drag I have to make sure that there's not many traffic ... the damper setting is also an important key + planning to change to full lock LSD .... BTW what damper (absorber) you're using ? I use TEIN b4 but due to the left & right I change it OHLIN H/L/S/H ... better handling than before .... dude look for Spoon lar the're short stroke and race use ....

 

[akuma]

i'm running TEIN HA..if u wan short stroke n extreme harness,shud b looking 4 Buddy Club or CRUX.....SPOON?hard?dun think so

 

[CKCL_63]

if you put it that way there's a lot of brands in the market so it depend on the individual preferance .... me i'm happy with OHLIN at the meantime unless it really cannot withstand the power then only i'll change .. settings on my abs .. is front not that hard but back have to be hard .. Spoon not my preferance but for NA and gila CCT ... as I said RACE use .... just my 2 cents.
