Then since you have the basics and hondata. Suspension upgrades are the way to go.

Sorry took that from the title. Yeah I know what you mean, the parts you need are not out yet. Bigger throttle body, cams, etc. You can find some things that will fit, or swap. I say keep the A3 for now, you might change your mind on forced induction :)

why would you want to? for the price of these mods, your 2 intakes, ans your header and exhaust,you pretty much the whole way to an a2 with real vtec; or fi.

because suspension upgrades are more worth it IMO. changes the whole feel of the car. and it makes the car more fun to drive. i/h/e does little for the car in real terms.. springs/sway bar on the other hand compeltely changes the car.

Not only that, its also called SAFETY. Thats how accidents happen, we have people building fast cars but when an unexpected act occurs, the car wont respond, due to lack of braking and traction.

IMO, suspension, brakes and tires are first in my list to building a fast car. Unless its only a DRAG car.

Good luck and be safehttp://www.ephatch.com/forum/images/icons/icon14.gif

it's so funny you say that... i just bought wilwood brakes and this guy around here who has an 89 crx with a b16 swap and a turbo, plus about 600 lbs of stereo equipment, but still has stock brakes (disk/drum) asked me "why i wanted those brakes?" quote: "are you going for the bling bling factor? he said "i've got stock brakes still and they work fine for me..." i honestly couldn't believe he asked me that. oh well, ppl just don't value their safety as much as i do i guess... :rolleyes:

[!@#$%]

i say wait until cams.

yeah some people just put turbo's in their cars and never race, its the showroom factor or something. That is funny though





Ay for this guy that wants to know more htings to do to the a3, read the engine thread dog. There has been like 20 of these posts in the last month.

You should reconsider suspension too, these people who are replying speak from experience. Suspension is more fun since you feel it all the time. Do what ya like tho....
