Future Mods-

Progression-
First mods were 12.2" bbk and 17" HFP's in Bronze


HFP's



First bought Megan Shorty header and Test Pipe


At Dyno with my original setup. Fujita intake, megan shorty header, test pipe, and greddy ti-c exhaust


Going Boost. CT Supercharger


N+ Coils installed


Got RPF-1's and Hoosiers for Autocross- Flames out the back because RACECAR


First Trip to the dragon in the Si


Bought a second car because racecar.


Because racecar.


go-power exhaust/skunk2 alpha installed


Bailed on the HFP's for dailies and went to the RPF-1's needed tires so I got star specs!


Installed injen cold air


Another trip to the dragon with a scoooooobaru


Latest Autocross


Bought the OEM Civic Cover because racecar.


Installed IMT Inlet, Skunk2 TB (Which i have had no issues with BTW ) Napa #7777 Radiator Hose and HPS reducing coupler 1000cc injectors


Sad story though... only made 1 more hp and 7 more tq.

BUT good news is that we tested a bull-horn style intake on the previous setup and I actually lost power, however with the new setup I gained 29hp just by adding the better flowing intake. SO that's the new next mod. Import DPS or KMOD 4" intake.

Inlet differance


Throttle Body Differance


How she sits now.

How do you like your wheel and tire setup? considering the same size rpf1's or maybe reverse staggered. 9"F/8"R

love the rpf-1's. would have prob gone with +45 rather than +35. Could prob stick a wider tire under there if I had gone with the +45.

I had to roll the fenders to get the 235's under there.

Star Specs are amazing.

I have a set of hoosiers that I used to run for autocross, but I bailed after I decided to run more mountain roads vs autocross. I have still been to a couple autocrosses with the star specs, and I was not disappointed with the traction compared to those hoosiers.

wonderful tires at a decent price, I would highly recommend them.
