new guy
what up!? this is my first post here. just want to say hey!
Also, this might be a dumb question, but the only way to find out is to ask, is there any reason to put an intake on a 81 civic? it has a carburetor... and i would like to get an ingine swap. would a b16 do any good or what might be better? would that even fit in my car? thanks ~racer_eks81 |

hey welcome to the site. As for an intake im not to sure man. As for the engine swap. If your motor is a b series then you should be fine. Im unsure of your engine coad though. The B16 would be awsome your for your car.

your engine is D so itll a swap will complicated kinda.
but heads up do a B18 B16 are torqueless imo. as far as intake i have no clue. im sure it wouldnt hurt but its still only a little HP gain.

I think it won't hurt it but i wouldn't be investing money in a 81. It's 23 years old car. Is it moded at all or anything?

welcome to HS...an intake as mentioned at minimal would be a slight gain if any...better to just save up for an engine swap.
good luck and hope to see you aroud the boards... |
