Burny Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Boosted civics are cheap power all that is needed is a B16 or B18C4 and a turbo setup and they love it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jamie1st Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Always wondered what power civic I'd be running if I'd have chucked the same money into one as I have a starlet! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted April 10, 2013 Author Share Posted April 10, 2013 Boosted civics are cheap power all that is needed is a B16 or B18C4 and a turbo setup and they love it! I've always been told it costs about £2k to have one boosted and set up properly, not exactly cheap unless you buy a shoddy example to start with Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan-11 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 It is now with the new owner, fibreglass front end roll cage and all that.When alvis had it, it was just a ratty looking fully stripped eg on drag radials and bike tyres on the rear with a hole in the nose as a direct feed Intake onto the custom intake mani and throttle. At full chat the pressure on the front created a small amount of positive pressure on the intake lol Its a beast, the guy was running 11 deads all day, just couldnt break into the 10s Bet it isnt cheap though! Lol dc2 or 5? dc5 nope its not cheap lol, 2.2 fully forged tho Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Burny Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Always wondered what power civic I'd be running if I'd have chucked the same money into one as I have a starlet!I used to think that all the time mate, especially after i paid £2500 for an EK that was pushing 250bhp @ 8psi! An old guy near me has a 600bhp EG that was built by Top Fuel in Japan! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Starbo Moorley Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Always wondered what power civic I'd be running if I'd have chucked the same money into one as I have a starlet!I think about this on a daily basis ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RandomDan Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Is that the silver one? I've heard its blue, i havnt seen pictures. Been told it looks totaly standard except the huge exhaust its now running. Im looking to turbo my civic at some point expecting to pay atleast £1500 buy all parts second hand as they pop up. Im only running the D-series engine though so im expecting around 200-250 for the money and without forged bottom end. And as said mapping is the expensive bit probably going to cost £400 alone!
