ive seen the kits for it. but it will only boost it on a stock set up at 5psi, if i want more i gotta crack the motor and they said its gonna be around 4g's total to get it to hit 200hp i dont know if thats worth it . i also figured a civic motor would be faster than a kia. and alot easier to get my hands on it. im probably getting 97hp to the wheels now. doesnt a civic get at least 140-150hp to the wheels stock? if a civic isnt worth it. what else could i look for that would fit that bay? that would be worth it?

lol 140-150whp stock? try 70-80 for a dx... maybe 90 if your lucky.

ps. your not putting 97hp to the wheels right now, if you want it to go fast then your going to have to swap it.

I mean actually swap the car out for a better one, not just the motor. not trying to hate, but sometimes its just not worth it.
