okay, what are the best mods for my stock A20 that i can do for about 1000 bucks?
EFI conversion, CAI, full exhaust (header, high-flow cat, catback, muffler), Cam regrind, coil, ignition, plugs, wires, upgrade fuel pump... then maybe upgrade injectors, do some headwork and/or Port+Polish your intake manifold... that is probably more than $1K right there...
Intake, header, cam and exhaust should fit the bill.

CAI means cold air intake. i think you should search some more before you get flamed
so im lazy, flame if you will...
look for the word "search" at the top of the page. click on it. then type in what you want to know more about.
well minus the head work, but port and polish and the rest would be good.Quote:

:rolleyes: how do you like to be flamed :devil:well done:burn:lol :stick: j/k man :naughty:
a Custom CAI can range anywhere form 50-100bucks.
Exhaust piping and muffler can range anywhere from 100-500bucks.
A good header is hard to find..but if you want pacesetter that will settle you in around 300 or so.
Finally the cam is worth somewhere in the 100-200 range.
only guestimates on pricing, but thats a good start for your car with a grand.
88eyeguy: you're carbed... the best mod you could do is efi conversion, but it will involve the most work. If you stick with the carb, you'll need to mod a civic air box to run a CAI to your carb.
must I convert to EFI for cold air?
oh and before you start the grill, i prefer my steak medium rare and my flaming well done...me pyromaniac :devil: :beat:
me slow typer too
lol
you dont have to, you can get a civic box. i got one you want :deal: i sell it for 20bucks plus shipping
actually i'm thinkin of buyin an a20a3 and conv. the tank and ecu and all that to the efi stuff. i think that'll give me a little more freedom with the mods id like to do. besides, i'm gettin sick of my carb; even if it is just a year and a half old. it'll be a good way for me and the car to get acquainted.
i can still use the same exhuast system though, right???
i think so
good, nopionline.com has a pacesetter hi-flow cat system for about $170 is this a good exhuast system? i would really prefer the DC sports headers from what i've read on other threads.

saweeet! hey, performance noob question but for a daily driver what setup would you use 4-2-1 or 4-1
im not sure you might want to ask A20A1 he made his own headers
aight, thanx
Daily driver is better 4-2-1... I made 4-1 but that was cause thats what me and my motor likes :D
Oh before you convert to EFI... and if you have no emissions testing then you may want to do one of the vacuum line removal stages. It just modifies the vacuum routing to minimize vacuum leaks and gives a little more response to the carb. You can also adjust the mixture. https://www.3geez.com/showthread.php?p=470503#post470503
