I'm putting together a kit that's costing me less than a grand... I'm tuning using a tactrix cable and ecuflash...

Bolt-ons are not going to help you much with a 4g94...
check out evolutionm.net There is a lot of good info over there....

trust me, i dumped almost 14k into a civic (yea..stupid) and got nothing but cool noises and it was lowered.

keep it, pay it off, and use it as a reliable dd when you get a different platform.

2 built engines for hi-compression, both of which blew (d-series sucks), a b16.

2 different suspension setups..wasnt satisfied with either untill i made a frankenstein setup with skunk2 springs on onmi coilovers. and then the ricer standard intake, intake manifold, header, exhaust, test pipe, chiped ecu. all the noise makers. It all adds up after a while.

N/A sucks.
