    In my opinion, the 2.0 Civic is quick enough. Most I'd do to it is to slap some intake and exhaust mods on it, and maybe a grounding kit (hook one wire straight to the throttle body) to improve throttle response. That should make you happy for another year or so. After your warranty is up, then you can start looking at installing a turbo... but putting one on a brand new car is a shame, especially if you won't be able to use that power every day.

    But before you go boost, slap some real tires on that thing (I wish they'd kept the Advans the older 2.0 had... they were much nicer), and stump up for some good springs and/or shocks. Power without control is nothing.

    ----

    Sa D-Max, I don't know what sensors help to run the fuel management system, but a BOV might upset it... better nalang if you just upgrade your intercooler for more power... mas dramatic pa ang effect.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    why don't you just tape record the sound of a blow off valve, and press 'play' every time you shift? it will be just as effective as a BOV on a stock car and much cheaper

    Installing a blow-off valve (BOV) can be done on various vehicles, including stock ones, to enhance the turbocharged engine's performance and produce that distinct sound. Here are the general steps to install a blow-off valve:

    Steps to Install a Blow-Off Valve:
    Identify the Appropriate Location:

    Locate the existing bypass valve or diverter valve on the turbocharger system. This is where the blow-off valve will typically be installed.
    Remove the Stock Bypass Valve:

    Disconnect the hoses and electrical connectors connected to the stock bypass valve.
    Remove the stock bypass valve carefully.
    Install the Blow-Off Valve:

    Mount the new blow-off valve in the same location where the stock bypass valve was removed.
    Secure the blow-off valve in place according to the manufacturer's instructions.
    Connect Hoses:

    Connect the hoses to the blow-off valve, ensuring a secure fit.
    Route the hoses as necessary based on the specific blow-off valve design.
    Electrical Connections (if applicable):

    If the blow-off valve has electronic components (e.g., solenoids), connect them according to the provided instructions.
    Adjustment (if applicable):

    Some blow-off valves may have adjustable settings. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for adjusting the valve to achieve the desired sound and performance.
    Test the Blow-Off Valve:

    Start the vehicle and listen for the sound of the blow-off valve when lifting off the throttle.
    Ensure there are no leaks and that the blow-off valve functions as intended.
    Considerations:
    Compatibility: Not all vehicles may benefit from a blow-off valve, and some modern engines are equipped with recirculating valves. Research your specific vehicle model to ensure compatibility.

    Tuning: If you modify the intake or exhaust system, or if you make other performance enhancements, consider getting the vehicle tuned to optimize the engine's performance with the new blow-off valve.

    Cost:
    The cost of a blow-off valve can vary depending on the brand, design, and features. Prices generally range from $50 to a few hundred dollars. High-quality blow-off valves from reputable brands may provide better performance and reliability.

    Important Note:
    Before proceeding with the installation, it's recommended to consult with automotive professionals or tuners who have experience with your specific make and model. They can offer guidance on whether a blow-off valve is suitable for your vehicle and how it might impact performance.
