Hey guys quick questions

I got EK Gli and Im wondering if I need to change the cluster if I chuck a B18 or B16 in the car because it has different redlines and stuff ?

And whats the insurance premium inflation like?

Thanks guys

you dont need to change cluster, jsut remember that your have a higher redline. but it would prob be nicer to have a vtir civic or a teggy cluster that shows your new engine's redline.

although it can be cool going off the scale of your old cluster and showing your friends haha :p

yea I remembered trying to get quote for the civic with just car and F#@$ it was such a pain, the girl wants me to tell her every single scratch and chip and birdshit that I have on my car on every single panel so I stayed with GIO

I may have to ring them again and ask about engine swap :P

they'll say it will be fine, as long as it's road legal.

just make sure you get someone who knows what ur talkin about.
