whats up

i just bought this protege last sunday.....

its all stock..but that will change fast... its a 1990 lx 5 spd.

the all stock power suprised me compared to the 4 dr. civic my cousin has...it rides waaayyy better and has alot more power...

custom parts are a little harder to find..i am going to make my own cold air intake...

if you guys have any tips, tricks, as far as mods go...let me know

Congrats

Use the 'search' as there is a LOT of info for different mods on the forum.
I started with a catback and just recently swapped a RX7 VAF w/cone filter in to replace the stock airbox and got a nice bump in power....
be sure to look over www.automediazone.com/pro

Welcome to the club. Yes this car will eat 4 door civics, if u want real power i suggest putting a gtx turbo engine in, u can do a decent swap for around 3500 but have over 200 hp :-)
