Wow, 128 for the 1.8L is sad too.. That would be a much better starting point though..

3. you have NO exprerence in building cars

True or false - 20 pts each.

1. The Protege engines listed make the same amount of power as most non-SI Civics.

2. The Protege engines are capable of holding more power than similar Honda engine.

3. Most 1.8's can hold nearly twice as much power as similar Honda engines without any internal work.

4. Everyone's jumpin' this kid's dick 'cause he's going the "unpopular" route.

5. Protege's have stronger transmissions, and hook up from a stop better due to equal-length half-shafts.


I say turbo that bitch and see what you can do with it. There are numerous kids on the Escort forums with the 1.9 80hp engine that are in the mid 13's with nothing more than a turbo kid and a head port. Do that shit up proper...

.. but an older 1.8 swap (I don't know what year they switched to cast internals from the factory) would be the logical thing to do. It can handle nearly 300hp before you have to worry about rings.

1. your car has little or no potental - i like my car, it's just too slow for me so turbo-ing it will fix that problem, i'm not trying to take it to the track or claim it's better than anyone's, it's a car and I like it
2. it has little or no aftermarket support, yet I managed to fabricate a lot for it, thanks to friends and support over at clubprotege.com it is UNIQUE that is what matters, why in the world would I want a car that everyone else has? Not saying I hate civics, but if you build a cookie cutter civic you suck, if you do it custom how you want it, then that's good, build a car for YOU, not for everyone else to like.
3. you have NO exprerence in building cars, you do not know me so do not assume anything...

also learn to spell,

plus you like calling me a kid, yet i'm 22 years old and have been through more than you ever will, anyone who calls another kid is insecure because that's how they see themselves)
