Whats the cheapest way to make my 93 honda civic faster?

cold air intake and exhaust consisting of a header on out the back, and don't forget the suspension upgrades

spark plugs, change the tires, oil. look online for ideas. Some idea's here. That is what my husband did.

attach it to a viper. just kidding go to jegs and talk to people. or where the race people hang out, alot of people are going to racing imports.

Cold Air Intake, Headers, Exhaust system and an ECU Upgrade Chip

the less you sepend the less power you'll notice.. its a cruel world.intake,exhaust,header,ex/Si trans,weight reduction,vtec head (if your car isnt vtec) with vtec ecu.

Trade it in on a Tiburon or Corvette!

NGK iridium plugs and wires $77, AEM cold air intake $200, K&N filter for the intake $47. That should add about 10-15 HP and 5-7 torque and have your engine running smooth. If your wanting to do the labor yourself then you should also get a DC 4-1 ceramic header $312, Apexi catback exhaust $470, copper exhaust gasket $26, a Bosch O2 sensor $70 (you may need 2). After all that add an additional 15-20 HP and 7-10 torque and a much louder sounding car. All the prices came from Ebay you might find them cheaper if you search the internet hard. If I were you I'd start at the top and work my way down. These mods turned my 2000 Civic SI from 15.7 second 1/4 mile car to a 15.0 second 1/4 mile car and a noticeable difference in performance! Good luck

Intake / headers/ exhaust. Intake would be the cheapest get a cold air intake its a lil more expensive than a short ram due to it be longer and sucks in air from the outside rather than inside of the engine. But make sure to buy a water bypass valve if you drive in flooded streets cuz then it would suck water up an lock your engine.

Are you serious? Tiburon? That's a shittier car than a stock Civic. No. Don't buy a Hyundai Tiburon; they suck. I smoked one in my 94 Accord, and my car is stock at the moment.

Any domestic who starts talking shit about Hondas:
Can your car pull 30mpg easy? How about 25mpg? No?
Hondas can; riced out, modded, turbo'd, supercharged, whatever, they still smoke any domestic AND get great mileage.

Honda = Performance + Efficiency
