Is that to do with the diesal mod you can get as dont think work would be to chuffed.
Ive had a diesal 1 before and that was stupidly quick up against the 1.8 sport and i cant wait to get another 1.

What i meant was take the civic to rocktop its a scrapyard, why not get a nova? or a civic EK9 and put a B18C1 TURBO in better than the new ****ters imo.

I work at the HONDA factory in swindon so get a new 1 every 10 months or so.Also i have 2 Nova's and another on the way aswel as a omega Elite.
The civic is a car i can just dump any were and not worry about.If it gets hit it get hit never mind.
Also the 07 civic 2.2 Diesal (curent shap) has been restricted as was faster than the old and the new type r.
So whats not that good about it.

Cool, that old shape type-s you had seemed fairly quick, and ok looking as far as modern cars go (I hate 99% of them)

I was chatting to a mate of mine at work today, he was on about the new type-r, 2.0 16v 250bhp? Is that about right? he said his mates just got one but he's the sort of person that says something but you normally assume thats he's bull shi.tting lol

new tranny?
if so there are a few variants.
there is a low power 2.2 FGT, low power 2.4's 90bhp/110bhp again FGT and possibly low flow injectors (but they might be changed by the end of this month) and the 2.4 VGT 120-145bhp bad boy.

so there are turbo and injector differences, but on the whole you "could" possibly get 20bhp more from it :D
