how can i make a car faster but without any engine mods?????

hey guys

i was just wondering what i could to do (my future car) to make it faster without doing any enigne mods??

My future car will b either a EF civic or crx - for sure

im trying to plan it out now so ill have less dramas when i get the car

im guessing some suspension upgrades, brake upgrades ( to make it stop faster lol) umm also stripping of unneccessary weight, aero body kit parts ?? oh yeah and mayba better drivetrain setup ?

so yeh thats about it, but in general just for like any car how would u make it faster without any engine mods

thanks in advance

PS. this is not a span thread i really need to know

NITROUS. But you would only be able to run a max of 50shot on a stock engine.

nitrous would be the only way to get much hp out of that engine, without any sort of n/a setup or forced induction setup

street legal or dirt trak?
do the b swap, take out windows, replace with plexi glass, seats, finish pannels, every thing not 110% nessicary if its for a track, if not, if its street driven, then do the b swap and suspention, then see if it weighs to much

Plexiglass scratches very easy... not worth it IMO. If he was going for strictly track use lexan.

Re: how can i make a car faster but without any engine mods?????

yeah but you can make your own plexiglass side windos, and your not gonna use it for the front window so it can't get broken that easy. take everything out you don't need. If the air is broke take it out, loss the spare tire, no need for all them seats one will do. good luck on the back seat lol. if your gonna use a b16a the go noz and 75sht it.

Re: how can i make a car faster but without any engine mods?????

maybe he doesn't know how to work on the engine himself? or he doesn't feel like bringin it to a shop? i'm kinda like that about engines, i have no idea how to work on one...i know the parts etc, but i'd be too afraid i'd break something so i'd get a shop to do it
