Hey everyone... I've had my 90 civic for about 4 months now and so far I've only made a few mods: air intake, header, hi-flo cat, and exhaust. This added some much needed power but not enough. I know there are plenty of other things I can do but does anyone know what route I should take next?? I was thinking about getting a bullfrog cam and chipping the ecu. Sound good?

chip the ecu....ditch the header and intake....get a turbo....run small amounts of boost.....build the junkyard turbo....go find an old Saab or something.....Saab 900's had T-3's....then use a header off of a Civic STD....get a custom flange made....boost controller, gauge, turbo timer,etc.....and get a P&P done for sure.
