what kinda civic? it wont be that fast with a bolt on kit with a stock motor and hondas were not made for boost so the internals tend not to be strong. a good tune can help but run u a penny and without a good tune the cars a ticking time bomb. in the end its a headache that with out no mechanic skills isnt worth it. you probably read about civics on here and just think hmm they are turbo and fast. well most are either built, swapped or built and swapped and tend to have alot more then 7 grand into them with the cost of the car, turbo kit, and other parts that go along with it. theres always the junk yard kit. on top of that u wont find a clean rust free civic around here for 2g, most need some work… ALOT of work. winter = death for civics. just one winter can very easliy ruin a clean civic. but why bother get something already turbod or just get a car and drive it if ur not 100% sure u want to build something.
