gettin bigger bores??
u mean boring out the motor, forged everthing, lowering compression, resleeving, honing, balance crank and micro polish.. etc
for a non boring out i was estimated for rebuild and with srp everything at around $3500. u dont need to ore a motor to prep it for a turbo, i do suggest a port polish

b/c the civic DX doesn't come with power steering. I was tired of straining to turn the wheels at idle. I'm not used to driving cars without some sort of power steering...it seems unnatural for me. Thanks for the estimate...I don't know if it's worth my while to add so much money into something that will never see a track. Just wanted a faster car to see if my neck could snap...so far it's still intact.
