It is a 94 VTEC! LOOK AT THE GODDAMN VALVE COVER! IT IS A FOUR CYLINDER! ONLY ONE HEADER! I HAVE TO BE MEAN BECAUSE IT IS THE ONLY WAY YOU LEARN!

get intake, header, high flow cat and catback exhaust( a good sounding one please. May I recommend RS*R) Some good wheels like Rota, short shifter, nice shocks and springs, sway bar. then you will have a fun ride.

Del Sol's dont need short shifters.. IMO at least. But seriously. in REALLY big print on your valve cover it says DOHC VTEC!

Oh yeah I forgot. But if I had a Del Sol I would probably do all of those other things, just to make it a fun car.

i already got an exaust but i dont know what kind they are but they sound real deep when i rev all da way to 5rpm. i got a new clutch and i dont knw what brand it is but i know it a brand new racing clutch. the car is pretty quick. rite now mostly everything is stock.

The Del Sol Vtec came with a B16A motor, DOHC 1595cc vtec motor. The other trim lines of the Del Sol (not the Del Sol Vtec) had SOHC D series motors

I Was Looking At Some Dc Sports Headers On Horsepowerfreaks.com. I Notice There Is Two Types Of Headers To Get. A One Piece And A Two Piece And What Is The Difference Between 4-2-1 And 4-1?

4 pipes into one pipe or 4 pipes into two pipes into one pipe. go with a ceramic coated 4-2-1 for a DC header. I use it on my B16, kickass header.the 4-2-1 is more for horsepower where as the 4-1 is mroe for low end torque. Since it is a honda, you want high end horsepower because any amount of torque won't really do you any good. plus it is always fun to be behind in a race then let your top end horsepower have you blow past someone.

You got that all backwards my friend. It is the exact opposite.

ok so you guys are saying that 421 is for more low end torque and the 4-1 is for more horsepower?

on my odometer the SRS light is turned on what doe sthat suppose to mean ?
94SolGrl

Don't worry about the SRS light. They all come on. If it bugs you that bad, the dealership can turn it off for you.. basically means the system needs to be inspected and reset. There's a way to do the reset yourself, but it's complicated. Almost ever del Sol I've owned has had that light on. No biggie. The airbag won't randomly pop out or anything.

I would avoid those. They are going to give you a really hard ride. I recommend Koni Yello shocks first, then later get some springs like H&R Sport. I dont know if your car has a rear swaybar, but if you get a bigger bar that will help your handling alot. This is the order I would do the suspension.
1. rear swaybar
2. koni yellow shocks
3. springs
4. strut bars
after those upgrades your car will corner like a mofo. oh and dont forget some nice tires, and new wheels if you want. keep them small so they dont slow you down.

Well My Suspension Is Pretty Much Stock So I Just Want To Drop It I Dont Wanna Do The Full Suspension Yet. I Got 14inch Rims On It And I Just Wanna Drop It To Reduce The Gap In Between My Tires And Make It Look Nice For Now But I Will Go For The Whole Suspension Later When The Money Is Rite But As For Now Just Spring Would Do. What Do U Think ?

Well I suppose you could just get the springs, but your ride quality is going to suck, and your shocks will blow out, along with you will need an alignment, and camber adjustment. I believe this includes a camber kit for your car, which is around $200 (new upper control arms with adjustable ball joints.) So if you dont mind a hard ride, and possiby an even worse ride on stock shocks, then go ahead and do the springs, then the next thing you get should be shocks. Dont go cheap, just save up. If you get cheap stuff it will break, then you just end up paying more to get it redone.

Well. When I was in the Cavalier club,we dyno'd a 4-1 and a 4-2-1 and found the 4-2-1 for high end, and 4-1 for low end. That was with 3 different cars all using the same headers.

that was also a cavalier. Domestic engines and import engines work in different ways. Domestic engines depend on torque... imports depend on horsepower. Drop it Jordan.
