no thats what we want you to do, and if you keep doing what your doing it won't be long


Okay, so what are some of the minor and relatively inexpensive tweaks I can start with?

I figured I could pull the 80MM intake at the junk yard, I figured ID start with that.

....

let's be clear about something...that car is slow as FUCK...it has 150hp on a good day...weighs 2 fucking tons....handles as bad as a school bus.

the only way to get any real performance is to sell it and put the upgrade budget towards a worthwhile platform...i mean christ that thing makes a base model civic look like a race car.

Your car handles terribly and there is nothing you can do to make it fast short of major work and cost.
