This is what I have now. A long way from a Celica or a Teggy. I plan on purchasing a Celica again next year but in the mean time I want to get this thing zippier. 15.0 ish. What would that take? Im not necessarily a Honda fanatic.


Looking up b16's I came across a 138 HP version of the Si motor. What is that from? I think that would be enough power to get a 2200 LB car quick enough for a year.

i believe that motor is from the crx si.

As for what it would take to get 15.

Gutted interior, swap, some good tires with light rims, and a few bolt ons. Should be pretty easy.

Look up Mini-me swaps. 1.6 non v-tec with a 1.6 SOHC Y or Z head.

Gutting interior is not an option.

The SOHC vtec head off of a Civic ex?

Yup. All you need is the new head and a V-tec controller.....and you're set :) Did that on one of my Rexe's......it nets about 130hp or so.....The Y head gives you higher compression so get that.

Thats a CRX install though. I have a Civic. Would it be the same general process?

I have the 1.5L.
