Ok I'm not going to argue with you over a 2-step system

I understand the fact that he's auto and so fourth so yes it would not be even worth it on his car. IMO I wouldn't put any parts on a 01 GS. I clearly read what you said I just didn't get the fact you would say its a waste of money. Maybe for his case, but I wouldn't say its a waste... you are using it.

What 2-step did you use on the SRT-4? Meaning what system? There is one out there now that is bringing in good results.

Your right i do use it but i have a modded car that needs it so i can hit my 1.6 60ft on a regular basis.......there are plenty of other things that would be much more useful to him if that is really the car he wants to mod.....thats all i was trying to get across.i dont have my srt anymore but it had the one made by MSD. i got no better performance out of it becasue even with suspension the car was a tire frying whore!

man i didnt mean to start a whole argument im just looking for opinions on what to do with the car performance wise not to argue about a 2 step i bought one for my civic and it was probably the best upgrade i did on my civic but back to the turbo i just dont like the idea of putting a turbo on this car plus id buy a turbo for my civic before i even think about putting one on this car. all i want is for the car to pick up speed a little fast im not planning to make this a race car just i need it to pick up and go when ever i want it or need it to acceleration wise

there is no suck thing as not having traction on an 350whp srt 4 , u either didn't have the right suspension and tires or something else was wrong. on slicks with a 2 step u should dead hook with a 2 step. theres people with 600whp civic hooking at the track.

hahah so u was worming up one tire and not the other lmao. for a fwd car to hook at that power level it has to have a lsd.

This is why 04/05 SRT-4's are better... they come with LSD already and a few other things 03 lack of. But yeah one wheel spin FTL, doesn't help warming up just one tire.

Just go with intake, header, exhaust. Search around for some pulleys and a cam gear. Then maybe a 50 shot.

i believe he said it is a waste...to put on an auto non turbo.. but i could have misread




if you're just looking to pep it up, intake, exhaust, header, pulleys should do alright
