Please help!!!

I am looking to get a n/a 4G63 to perform as closely to the Civic and S2000 in this video as possible without having to do any fuel tuning or any other tuning at all. Yeah I know this sounds shallow, but I don't know how to go about tuning things like that, and I like simplicity. I still want the car to be streetable though, so keep that in mind, and I want to go about this the most cost effective way as possible also.

1. What else can be done besides these mods to help me get closer to my goal without having to do any technical tuning? And would these mods require any tuning(ex. fuel tuning)? (I don't think they would, but I'm not sure).

- Interior
roll cage
air/ fuel gauge
-Intake
filter
hard intake pipe
turbonator type of device
-Exhaust
Header
High flow cat.
Exhaust
- Engine
rad.
- Drivetrain (auto.)
trans. Cooler
clutch kit
valve body
-Suspension
struts
springs
wheels
tires
strut tower bars
sway bars
- Brakes
pads
calipers

2. What mods besides what I've listed would increase and auto. trans.' Performance and reliability to the point of being able to support the listed mods?

3. would these mods require an ignition time controller? When/ why would one be needed?

4. Would performance cams plus the existing mods require a fuel or ignition time controller?

5. Would a performance intake mani. Require a fuel controller?

6. Would cams plus intake mani. Plus listed mods require fuel/ ignition tuning?

7. What would I get out of cams and an intake mani. Together and individually?

8. Does a torque converter prevent burning out? (just a yes or no please) If yes, does it require tuning?

9.What's the purpose of stainless steel brake lines?

Please put the corresponding Q #'s before the answer(s) you provide.

Thanks, Seth.

Why don't you want to tune? It is like buying xbox 360 and not playing online, or buying only 1 game to go with it, sure it is fun for awhile but it is soooo limited. Why spend all of that money when you aren't going to see substantial power gains?

So have you tried google or wikipedia or any search engine to answer all this or do you want to be spoon feed?

Those cars are far from stock, did you not see 8.5/9K rpm on them and over 165KPH.

It is easy to see you are going to get way in over your head on this so please do some homework and then decided.

Further more you would ne hard pressed to get a n/a dsm to do some of that, not saying impossible but you said clearly that "I don't know how to go about tuning things like that, and I like simplicity". I doubt this is something you can do.

Your list of parts especially the motor department are way off as ti what you are expecting as well.

Go to a honda/acura board and ask them the same question and see what they have to say.

This reply basically sums up what I would be typing if I were to type a reply to this thread. Please search and read other F.A.Q's and explanations on the forums to help you with 99.9% of your questions.

Also have you looked at the NA honda's that your trying to compare an NA dsm to?

Please... do a little research before posting this many questions again.
