Hey forum,

Im thinking about what engine performance modifications to do to my EK1 civic in order to perform great on the streets and for some form of hill climb/track events.

This is taking into account that im going to do my suspension work before any of these performance mods take place.

My problem is for what would style of performance would be best for the style of car i would want, on a budget style build layout for a uni student.

I had a stock d16y4 in the car at the moment and was thinking about a self built t25 or t28 turbo kit which will give usable boost power on the streets and wont have much lag.
Or would it be better to go with a motor swap such as b16a/b18c/K20a and keep it N/A??


Guys please help me out with this choice. What would be the pros and cons of these set ups for a street/hill climb set up.

Help would be appreciated
Steven
