IF stock civics ran REDICULOUSLY rich, and you added all these AIRFLOW related mods it WOULD MAKE A HUGE DIFFERANCE... well civics DON'T run all that rich so they DONT really add power i have yet to see I/H/E combo ALONE make that much of a differance on ANY pre 99 honda civic..

Im speaking in stock terms...he is not going to be running rich and since he is asking about i/h/e im sure he doesnt even know how to get his car running rich. Unless he is using some after market fuel managment. WHo knows. He is asking about basic mods, but i agree with what your saying. Sometimes it will help on a heavy modded civic. Kinda like what you get a high flow cat for. On a stock car a high flow cat will due more harm then good most of the time, but you have a turbo or SC with i/h/e and some other performance mods, you most likely will get a nice boost from it. Nothing crazy or major...just little bit.
