hey guys,

are there any mods that can be done to get these engines up and going a little better? Its the twin carby engine in an EG sedan.

Is there a head swap or something that can be done, or is it more worthwhile doing an engine swap?

cheers
Lloyd

no ........

Engine swap maybe more worth while.

i got a dual carb civic.. best basic modd to do is get a ram air filter and install that.. great induction noise (i call in mini vtec noise hehe).. ive run my car without a filter and the lid of the box was off.. althought its not recommended u do this, their is a big accelleration difference (d15b4 engines rnt that fast ..) im no super driver but ive kept up wid twin cam corollas and chopped a 1.6l F/I civic with just the filter off..
