Ok lads need ur input on this, ive thought long an hard about the future of my civic, to rebuild and shoot for 400hp or to buy a new replacement, an frankly, im more so leaning over to buying a new car, more so a S14, not as a drifter but more so as a replacement as ive always wanted a Rwd turbo since ive gotten off my p's 3 years ago, an since than the civic build has progress more than it shoulda lol
As the car stands now it is making at 140kw with high boost an moddest 120 kw on low boost so its a fun little toy.... But the dilemma is that should try to sell the car as is, later on the year with the full custom turbo kit an all the goodies inside the car minus the amps an sub and bucket seat and with no road worthy?,
strongly advise against building the civic more
all the money you put into building the engine wont make a big difference to end selling price and may even scare off buyers
iirc the turbo hondas that have been advertised on here with built motors dont fair so well
plus the more you mod that car it will become a dog to drive being fwd and neverending money pit. more power then stronger clutch bigger wheel/tyre coz no grip etc. etc.

In all seriousness, i was thinking of going built b20 or k20, but decided to stick to original plans and not spend anymore on engine and buy jap rwd coupe at the end of the year.

cut losses imo
Couldnt agree with you any more, hence more of a reason to move onto a better car for a better platform
