I know what you're saying, but if we carefully plan this out, I don't think $400 (more like $600) is going to make it or break it.

$400 = an exhuast
or $400 = money for suspension
$400=money spent on some nice chrome Niche Bellas ( j/k Rene)

Or $400 could be spent on getting a nice, clean hatch instead of an everyone-has-one coupe (don't kill me coupe owners...I was only making a point!). I like the 6th gen coupes just as much as the next guy, but I happen to like hatches more.

But I understand what you're saying, VTEC_Boi. Let's just pick one! I'm ready to move on. *tapping foot impatiently*

Hey another thought occurred to me just now, if we want to do this right, we must budget some of our spending money for one important thing.....dyno time. You have to figure without a dyno, its hard to tune the car to make it the ass kicking ride we want it to be. So how much does dyno time cost, and about how much should we figure our ride will need?
$165 an hour.

$165 an hour? Sheesh. Seems a tad expensive. I was quoted $100 at three different dynos around here (that's a liberal term...within an hour's driving time from here).

I think the coupe got the votes because while they may be more common, I personally think the coupe looks a lot classier than the hatch. A hatch is great if you're just looking to build the fastest, lightest drag car you can make, but no matter how many mods I see on a Civic hatch, it always looks like a cheap little toy car to me. I respect people who choose to tune their hatch, and there are certainly plenty of them around that could easily smoke my coupe, but as far as just looking clean and cool, I think the 6G coupe is by far the winner. I love that Honda made the SI a coupe for 99-00, I'm trying to sell my EX and buy one right now

their is a big differnece between dynoing and dyno tuning , 3 dyno runs cost $65. If u need to tune a part to get it running right, u are gonna pay $165. quotes of http://www.engineered.net
