Civic 03 Si
 
Just got a new Civic 03 si but its a little slow and i want to make it a little bit faster Was wondering if there was any kind of motor swaps i could do.

it'll also disintegrate :P

don't mess with something that isn't broken. now that you have a decent engine to start out with, you can throw in an intercooler, turbo charger, cold air intake and exhaust, new headers, cam gears. ALL that good stuff! and you will see a VERY noticeable difference in horsepower, 150+ to be not-so exact.

Not necessarily all those parts together

of course not necessarily together, just throwing out all the different things you CAN and should do rather than swapping a perfectly good SI engine.

yeah i know you know...most of us do, I was just makin sure a newer person didnt get the wrong idea (ie header and turbo, intake and turbo, a random intercooler thrown in there, etc)

s'all good in da hood

kinda like how the new 'shop' owner around here asked sean if he was running 40 psi of boost when he popped the hood. I quickly pointed out that he had a header and not only a CAI, but a v2! how much stupider can he be ?! lmao.
