Hey guys, I'm looking into selling my 98 hatch, or trading it in. The only 2 cars I'm interested in are EG and EK hatches since thats all I can really afford. I love EK's since they have an upper grill, better door handles in my opinion, and I like the rear alittle more. The thing is... that OBD2 sucks ass. I was planning on getting i/h/e, carsound catalytic converter, and an ECU upgrade (not really sure on that). I guess my question really is do you think my car will be pretty slow with just a B18c1 swap and stock ECU? I just want to go all motor, anyways let me know what you guys think. |

I'm not sure how reliable that is though, especially since I commute alot. |

If you are going to be using it as a daily driver/commuter...a B18c1 will be plenty fast with just bolt on goodies. I've seen EKs and EGs run mid to low 14s with just a few bolt ons at this elevation (about 2500-3000 ft) As soon as this stupid western PA snow begins to melt off I'll have a 98-2000 B18c1 in my 98 EK. As soon as we swap it I'm putting on a DC 4-1 header, no cat, plugs/wires, Aem cai, etc. The minor stuff. I'll let you know how it runs. Anything is better than those damn D16s. |

LSD is a necessity. Finding it is another story. |
