Default Questions on my '02 EX

OK, I just brought home my new 2002 2dr 5spd EX. I notice the engine went to a 1.7l. Am I ****ed on making this thing fast or have you guys already figured out how to hook 'em up?

Your better off avoiding building up that engine and maybe, if you have the cash, get a K20A3.

Thanks! And about the returnless fuel system, HKS has overcome that problem. They are currently developing a low boost turbo kit for 7th gen Civics, which looks extremely promising.

As of now, no tuners make any internal engine mods. It was rumored that JUN was currectly developing mods some months ago when they JUN'd out a 7th gen. But still, nothin on the market.

It's such a shame Honda stuck with the "D" series platform instead of sticking a detuned "K" series motor in with the new body style. But oh well, that's what swaps are for! Oh and by the way there has been a successful RSX Type S motor swap into a 7th Gen Civic.

I'd tell you to visit www.2k1civic.com but the type of nonsense which filters through those forums is just not worth looking at. But check out the Members Gallery, you'll find some super nice rides.
