well as some of ya'll might now i'm have some expected problems with the celi ... yes i said expected.... as i'm collecting the parts needed to get her back in working order.. i have really been thinking about selling her.... she has been great to me but should i keep a car that is getting up there in age... if i sell her i'm going for a civic si . if i keep her fook the supercharger idea i'm going to need a newer engine .. so why not go for a red top ..... right now i'm leaning more towards selling her but maybe ya'll can talk me into keeping her...

Dont give up on her man.
Especially for a civic.
She might be ageing, but she still looks good smile.gif
The supercharger idea is pretty sweet and original.
Hang in there and dont give up.

I think new Civic SIs are really ugly. The K20a is sweet, but if you want that speed I'd go for a used RSX Type-S rather than a new Civic SI.

But either way, you'd be spending much more than swapping in a red top BEAMS 3S-GE, which would be very unique. And both the Civic SI and RSX Type-S are not very unique. And I think the Celi looks better than both of them, especially the SI.

don't sell it mac. get it repaired and drive it for the time being. you can buy mine when i'm selling it next year and you don't have to do anything else to it since the celi by then would already ahve boost. and alot more goodies that you know i have. wink.gif convincing enough?
