Come on I need to know if I will need motor mounts, radiator, and anything else I may need to get the y8 running right in my poor excuse for a civic cx... 70 hp just aint cutting it.


ummmm ur car is obdI not II so dont get that mixed up!

yeah, do the swap.

Intake 60-100 bucks.
Header 200 bucks, used dc-sports
exhaust ~300 bucks, used, or custom bent, whatevs.

You can do those in stages, and you're probably looking at ~120ish HP in a VERY light car.

I'd want to do some suspension work too... I dunno, my hatch is so light, that I want to be a little closer to the ground, hehehe.

I'd find a d16z6 to throw in that....easier to do...the y8 is obdII and you can get a d16z6 for about $500

oh and PHiZ...about your new hatch....**** YOU

OBD2 shouldn't matter, just use an OBD1 engine harness.
