How much power are you looking for mate?

 

[obi_waynne]

Hi Galloway21 and a warm welcome to TorqueCars. A lot depends on how much money you want to spend. Prince is our resident Civic expert and knows his VTEC's well!

welcome to tc mate

people say you can tune a sohc better than a dohc, i dont know if this is true but mates of mine over here are tuning them and keeping up with dohc

1 paticular mate loves the 1.5 sohc and is currently rebuilding 1, il ask him when i see him again what he actually does

 

[prevtec]

ive just noticed you have a vtec-e or is that a mis print??
if it is a vtec-e, my mate has 1 and he just changed the ecu for a 1.5 vtec normal 1
now theres more power and even a small kick from it when vtec kicks in

Helloooooo Welcome buddy.....

 

[galloway21]

looking at spending quite abit on the engine its only done 84000 so dont really mind any suggestions prince

What kind of power output are looking for?

Also, what is the vtec-e like to drive because they were designed not to be revved high?

 

[galloway21]
