Christmas money to spend on my '98 black coupe civic. I want to stretch it out.Should I go improving looks or engine. what engine mods besides intake should I consider? I dont think that headers and exhaust would help much in hp, but open to oppinions. Also, minus the rims, tires, tail lights, and headlights. WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

headers and exhaust it the "gate way" to any major engine mod. it allows the car to breath. even if it doesnt give the hp numder you want it will still up your torque.
from there it is up to you alone if you are lookinh for looks or speed.

Save for a swap man. I mean, you may as well get the catback though, b/c then when you swap, you wont have to buy one then. d16's are not meant for power, yo u can accomplish it but its going to cost you and you still will not get the results you would get out of a b16 or b18c1.

Neither one... deffinately not the Edlebrock.

Do the research and piece your own together.... it'll be way cheaper than those kits, and perform just the same if you do it right.
