what would the hp be?

In that case I will consider it... having a 1.8T like you say sounds cool
Edit: Ive checked prices, and I think that the 2007 seup s cheaper. At least I think I'll begin with it, and i will consider turbo in the future.... 2.0T

Veedub, about water, if u don't run airfilters u will ^%**££ ur engine soon cos of dust particles being sucked in and making indentations to the valve seats and piston rings, as well as scorching? the cylinder walls.

Rain in particular will not get in that easily if ur on the road.
I did this for a while, and I used to cover the carbs every time i parked, and washed the car...

Or you can order a turbokit from Mat Davis http://www.mattdavisracing.com/store.htm
He told me if you run 94x69 (1915cc) then do a little headwork, mild cam, you can have about 300hp..Im guessing you could use CB Performances heads..but I donno if his kits can be run with and a/c, you can ask him.

Thanks for the tip. I will consider that

But I dont know if a 300hp 1915Turbo would be reliable for a daily driver, but I can imagin thats not at low boost.
But it would be cool to raise the wheels up off the ground in front of some guy in a civic

even with half of that you can say the civics goodbye. I too have my doubts about reliability, but hey, im happy with 180 hp

id be happy with 180hp too. Aircooled.net says a bug with 180hp is as fast as a Vette..if thats really true thatys pretty cool. Just the Vettes top end would be really REALLY scary in a bug

[EvilAngel]

Yeah, I agree. Anyway, truth is my budget is not for reliable 180hp, at least not at this point. Guess i'll have to stay on the 130 - 140, which is as fast as a 'stang according to AC.net, and that's an improvement from stock!!
