Cheap upgrades for a SOHC 90 DX hatchback
I got a 90 dx and I found out that I can use the same parts for my engine I am getting later. I mean the SOHC vtec is compatible with the parts i put on now. SO i was wondering what are things to do. And if I do the right things can my car be at least quicker for the time being.

Re: Cheap upgrades for a SOHC 90 DX hatchback
Firts, take care of the little things on your car. Make sure your brakes are up tight as well as your suspension. I would then consider upgrading your exhaust. Step up in exhaust pipe diameter then go after a high flow CAT, and a nice muffler. After you take care of the motor swap you can start looking into Air intake, ignition and other tuning upgrades.

If you're after a quicker car NOW, do a complete tuneup, check the tire air pressure, oil change etc.
Won't have an earth shattering effect, but it will be smoother & you'll know that you're getting as much performance as you can out of the DX.
