I'm in Boynton Beach, probably about 3-3.5 away from Tampa. I'll be there a few times this summer though. My cuz lives there.

Let me know when you head that way... I got to Tampa/St. Pete every weekend with some friends of mine (races).

Don't STD hatches have a restrictor plate in the intake which limits them to 70 HP? If I remember correctly, you can remove it to get 92 HP...still not MPFI, but better.

Will do VelocityCivic, I'll let you know the next time I go up there. Hey, where do you get parts down here? Looking for someplace lose to cut on shipping costs...

Oh and what is this about the restrictor plate? Is it hard to remove it? Will it really bump up the hp bit?? Anyone out there ever tried this?

Yeah, I have done it. It works a little. Better than it in place though. Take off the 4 philips screws that are holding your DPI plate on. Once that is off, you will see a little brass plate covering most of the hole that the air goes into. Remove that with the one philips screw that is holding it in and your done. Test drive it after your done to see if YOU notice a differance. If you reallt want, you can also remove that little screen dome lookin thing over that little flap in the DPI "box".

Great, I will have to do that this weekend when I have a little time. Any drawbacks to this?

None that I have found. My friend did it to his 91 4 door a while ago (before he sold it) and he said that it slowed him down.

STD's and DX's I think. Any Civic with the dual point setup.

I know there are so many sides to this...but you think doing this and also adding a generic aftermarket intake would give me a little more power as well? Geez, I'd be happy with 3 hp!!
