Okay so I have been reading for countless hours on the task of a 5 spd conversion on a civic and I plan to do this very soon but I want to make sure I have all of my ducks in a row perfectly first... I believe I want to use the S40 trans... if im not mistaken its a little closer ratio than the S20..?.. and the only real question left is P2M P2P or P28 ecu (or any other ecu preference welcomed) what will give me the most out of a D16y8 ... im not trying to build a monster here I just want something to have some fun in the north GA mountains and do it on a budget.... I have a little more than mildly but nothing any where near extremely ported and polished head, b18b1 ls throttle body and a full exhaust and in the near future I want to raise the compression from 9.6:1 to around 10-10.5 maybe 11:1 but probably not since I want to try to keep a stockish brain... will any other stock cams be a good swap or no and if anyone has any other tips on doing the 5spd conv. it would be very much appreciated as with any information... im a rotary guy and this is only my second civic build and first 5spd conversion and my ocd just has to have everything in order before I start... thank you so much for your time in advance
