I have been asking the same question for my 1990 Civic Standard 4spd...
i have taken this car to Laguna Seca and the results were pathetic..lap times were over 3 minutes.. old stock engine and tires gave up on me after only warm up 4 laps...

if you do not have B series engine...or a turbo on your rebuilt d series engine you will not be competitive,
unless you are competing with similiar slow cars...
u have the lightest model year and if you have the stock engine it's slow..
Do you have the stock DPFI or did you convert to MPFI???
changing to MPFI will net 10 -15 % more power on stock engine..

I have thought about more downforce and less drag, especially since these cars stock are seriously underpowered.. SO:
i am going to build a Kammback and undertray for my hatch and hood vents.
and eventually change to a 5spd transmission...
