In order to beat your brother with a civic you are going to need forced induction (turbo or supercharger). Id also recommend putting in front and rear bracking, suspension, a big brake system and beefy tires otherwise you are going to fly off the first curve you hit.

Down right cheapest way is to spray it. You will need a large wet shot. I don't think your motor will hold it so I DO NOT recommend it but you wanted to know cheapest and thats it.

HondaClub is not responsible if you blow your motor on this advice.

I wouldn't put a huge shot of nitrious on it with out some motor work. But hes right thats the easiest hp gain. But after a few hits of that say bye bye to your motor.

My cheapest way? Drop in a new race ready street legal engine.

It'll set you back about $2000 but it's almost the last thing you'll need to buy!

Yours is the cheapest in the long run, n2o is the cheapest in the short run. Maybe he can bet his brother about $2k and after his motor blows up he can buy the race one ;-p

Where will you find a race engine for $2000? I can buy a Dart Block for about that but not a whole engine.

You can buy used engines from Japan that have been reconditioned / rebuild and have upgraded internals. Its not a new race engine, but its close to that price and for performance purposes.

But even a JDM engine won't be enough to run an LS1
