NewHondaChick Posted May 7, 2002 Share Posted May 7, 2002 I just got an 02 Si... I love it. Very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theotherachiever Posted May 8, 2002 Share Posted May 8, 2002 first u wanna break ur engine in, like i said in another thread it wont take much to make it as fast as a type-r, i believe i type-r has maybe 185-200 hp? cant remember exactly... you could get maybe 240hp if you got a turbo. i/h/e would help you out also but if thats all you get i dont think ull reach the hp of a type-r Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theachiever Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 hi the first thing i would do to ur civic would be to inhance the handling capibilites. I would get some progressive lowering springs and tokico shocks, anti sway bars and a rear strut bar( i think the si comes with a stock struct bar under the hood). the type r come with really good(stiff) suspention so you should try an match it or make urs even better. After that i would get intake, exhaust, and headers, maybe type r cams and pistons. if ur willing to spent the money on a turbo charger then i think you should one...that will put u way past a type r.

TrueSi Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 Well dude the first thing you are gonna have to do is wait at least a year before you can start buying aftermarket parts unless you have the cash and you can have a custom turbo kit build just for you. but for right now I would suggest you break i your engine and then get a nitrous kit. It will help you out on special occacions. Wil Dark Age Performance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBirdSucks Posted March 21, 2004 Share Posted March 21, 2004 they're basically the same motor anyway....so how does USDM suck compared to JDM motors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuckmofo Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 they're basically the same motor anyway....so how does USDM suck compared to JDM motors? If you were to compare Jdm has more horsepower, in my book that makes it better but what do i know? ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBirdSucks Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 that depends which B16A you're referring to, thanks though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuckmofo Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 well the b16a out of a XSi has 160 which is till equall to the usdm b16a3. But the b16a2 is 170 and its a JDM motor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 You're an idiot. JDM and USDM make the same amount of power. Honda justed said that the JDM ones make more so they would be considered an improvement over the older JDM B's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bojangles Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 man i would rather go with the hond ex. b/c the only difference between the ex and the si is the dohc and u can just add a couple extra parts to the ex for it to keep up with the si.
