Hey everyone! Since i left the Lexus community i've been trying to tastefully mod this civic. I sold my sc400 for this, its an 08 si. To my and many others surprise, its not slow..much faster then my sc anyways. I'm desperately trying to stay away from exhaust, because we all know what hondas with exhaust sound like lol. I've had it about 6 months now and have gotten a good amount of work done.
so far:
Xenondepot 4300k HIDs
20% tint
Injen CAI
P2R Throttle body spacer with gaskets
Hondata Intake manifold gasket
Comptech lowering springs
Skunk2 Rear Camber kit
HFP Front lip
Corsport Short shifter
440g S2 Shift knob
Megan racing H Brace
Tinted Taillights (taking tint off, dont like it, tell me what you think)
eyelids
anyways, on to the pics...

Looking Good... :thumbup::D

Looks good!

What do these two things do in terms of performance?

-P2R Throttle body spacer with gaskets
-Hondata Intake manifold gasket

love the OEM Si wheels :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

kewl car!

I'm seriously thinking of dumping the Audi TT for one but I don't think the wife would go for the manual tranny....

You can get an exhaust that doesn't sound like a giant fart can. Usually the ones that sound awful are the "custom" jobs. They usually just remove the stock muffler and mount a large diameter muffler on it from Pep Boys or the like. Get a decent exhaust and it'll flow better and make the sound throatier. I don't know which you can get but you can do some research to find it.

DC Sports makes a good one. A buddy of mine just put one on his girls RSX. She had an AEM intake already on the car, and now it just sound insanely baritone... No fart can sound there!:thumbup:

Good work with the Civic... I've actually been thinking about getting out of the GS and into one of these as it's just me in the V8. But, I can't force myself to get into another car payment... The best kind of car is a car that's paid off... :D

the throttle body spacer gives a 3/4 inch extension into the manifold it gives about 4-5 hp and the gaskets keep it from getting to hot, same thing with the img, it just helps out with heat.

Translation:
On a pig, that's some very nice lipstick

LOL :D

vince - I think your car looks GREAT!

I'm seriously thinking of dumping the Audi TT for one...

Wow, why is that?

hahaha nice translation bit.. there is a lot of civic hate out there im not gonna lie, but its not like its a 95 hatch with a loud exhaust and primered. thanks for all the compliments guys :) about the audi, i was seriously going to get one before i went with the civic. theres even a wtb thread in the non lexus vehicles forum from a long ass time ago lol im glad i got the honda though. but thanks again guys!

Enjoy =) The car looks great in black!

Nice looking car (and girl!). I really like the way the civics look. I'm thinking about getting one when my 335i lease is up, but I'd definitely not get the Si model because its fuel economy is dramatically worse than the regular models. Yes it's 'faster' but how fast is fast really... 15 second quarter miles still aren't fast... they're just not slow, so I might as well just go even slower and get good fuel economy while I'm at it.:D

That is nice as hell. Love the mods. The eyelids are a nice touch

One of these might look good on there:
