what engine should i use?
in the fall i am going to purchase a 5th gen civic (probably a coupe)and want to know what engine I should go with. So far I have decided on either keeping the stock ex engine, building the bottom end, and buying the greddy tubo kit, and add bolt ons. I have heard that the stock civic ex engine can handle about 200-220 horsepower. My other option would be to swap in a non-vtec b18b and put the drag gen-III turbo kit on there. Supposedly the b18b is good for boosting and can handle 300-350 horsepower.
Once I'm done I will want to run low 13's or maybe high 12's. I'm not going to put a stereo, big wheels, or a heavy body kit to save weight. Is it possible to acheive these times with these engine choices, or would there be a better (less expensive,yet reliable) way to get these times? any advice would help |
