Doesn't the solomiata site say that is a great formula for a turbo? Putting the SOHC pistons in a DOHC results in 8.2:1 compression, IIRC.

As far as I know making your car a convertible wouldn't make it much faster...............decrease of weight would be the only positive thing

If you are so into it........don't worry........there is a lot you can do to your Protege......and I mean a lot...............just hang out here for a few days and you'll start to understand what I mean

Be different........forget all the Civics.........My grandma's car is more original than that
