Civic EG

With the mini head swap, skunk2 intake mani, cam gear, ram air, and a decent entire exhaust (mani to muffler) and the basics such as higher octane gas, royal purple oil, and high quality spark plugs/wires, approx. how much h.p. should i expect? just a rough estamate. also any other cheap mods that will get me more power will be appreciated-kind of knew to tiny engines, ha.

Probably about 115 to the wheels.

Got 500 bucks? Buy a nitrous kit.

A Wet Nitrous kit off ebay. I had one on my D16z6 Fully loaded Coupes and with sticky tires, my Wet Kit, and some grape soda I was beating n/a K Swapped Hatches.

Nitrous is an amazing thing.

how big of a wet shot ? and why grape soda lol

well seeing as even with nos i'll only be getting 130-150 hp, i've decided to just do some extra work and just get a turbo kit.

i say turbo all the way... lil more work and money but results if done right is alot better

A little over 100 shot. As for the Grape soda? Use it to get better traction.

A Mini me with a d15b7 bottom end and a d16z6 head will be close to 130 hp at the fly. Nitrous will add from there. Say you have a 50 shot, that will give you 180hp at the fly. 100 shot would be about 230 hp at the fly.

Turbo Setup's are nice, And you can get good power from them. You can also get good power from Nitrous. Nitrous is cheap horsepower. Which is why I have used it in the past, However for my B16 EK Hatch, I am jumping camps and going with Boost.

If you are just drag racing Nitrous is awesome, If your doing road course racing then going with a turbo charged setup is better.

Either way good luck.
