Well, I figured, but you never know with noobs. h:

But, my point stands. If you want a good economical commuter, you've already got one... just leave it be. If you want anything from peppy to all out fast, the d15b7 is not your ideal starting point.

 

Your spelling disagrees.

 

Its a great starting point. My advice, keep it stock! or go with more subtle mods. I'm in the process of getting rid of mine due to profiling and harrassment from the local pd.

 

Fixed.

I totally agree.

If it's not a 1.6L don't build it unless all you're doing is re-building it. It doesn't sound to me like it needs it. If you want something faster and you have something else to drive, then ok swap it. It's a light car which gives it great potential, but the expense of adding Intake, Header, Exhaust, Fuel control and suspension (only around ~$1500 for the miserly) is enough to carry you 30,000 miles at $1.80/gal. That's around the world and then some.

It won't have the torque of a Legend with the engine that's in it, but there's no engineering problem that time and money can't fix. The civic is destined to become a legend, though some would say it already is.

 

 

:rofl:

 

no back seats with handle grips, no care h:


BTW, I was just pointing out the g1 legacy as a turbo motor with no intercooler

 

hhh yeah I figurede that one out after I posted that thing. It's 4WD, though. The Colt GT and Mitsubishi Mirage Turbo were also intercoolerless. So was the Nissan Pulsar NX. But just because none of these cars had it, it doesn't mean it was ever a good idea.
