Overall What Can I Put Into It To Make It Go Fast???...is It Possible To Put In A Air-intake Into A Carbed Car? If It Is Do I Have To Eliminate The Original Air Filter? How Do I Do That?

    2.0 liter

    bseries engines are commonly swapped in, though since you have a carb you can also do a FI swap to get like 20 more hp

    for an intake you need a different air box people use civic ones

    search for more info

    and
