the easiest i know of is flipping the lid....on your air filter.

Welcome non-gender specific! To answer you questions, check here:

for the FAQ. It is chock full of great stuff and ideas.

For example, there is the flipped lid, PGM-FI swap, ignition upgrades, the vacuum mod, civic carb'd air filter swap, and so on...

For more details, see the link! :)

By the way, those are big numbers you are asking for there, its time to break out the spectacles and start burning the midnight oil readin up. N/A might not get you those numbers, especially with the carb, but the FI swap and turbo would.

yeah it is, but no biggie right now, just don't go making an entire thread about your post count... if you talk about your post count try and include it with some relevant and useful information. :D BTW I'm past 9,000 hehehe.

Back to the topic at hand...there's not a whole lot you can do for little work and no money that will get you more than 5hp. And 5 would be stretching it.

i flipped my lid and got 8mm spark plug wires and did a tune up, gutted my cat also until i get a hi-flow, used to get to 90mph on the high way got to 125mph yesterday. Lucky has 198,000 miles on her and she runs like a champ, im the second owner, my aunt took real good care of it, so i bought it from her for 600$. By the way, what should i do about my exhaust,(headers,pipe,hi flow cat,muffler)?
