  1. Car Builds
    8th Gen Civics here, have really good deals on them. So I'll be purchasing one soon. However, my concern lies with the Fuel Economy: Highway : 14.8 kmpl (34.812 Mpg) City : 9.2 kmpl (21.63 Mpg) Though respectable, they still fall short. As a relatively new enthusiast, what mods or tunes should...

    So with this intake sitting close to the floor on the driver side? Could I cut that part in half so it’s not sitting close to the floor?
  3. Intake & Spacer Discussion
    So, when I bought my 06' SI FG2, it came with an AEM cold air intake installed. I am currently planning on getting new Drag Cartel DIC & setting up for an E85 tune, and am going to get it dyno'd. I have read a lot of good things about other CAI such as Hybrid Racing and Injen CAI's. Would it be...
  4. Acura CSX
    I've been looking for an SRI for my CSX for months, and I finally found this today: https://cosmoracing.com/en/acura-csx-2006-2011-2-0l-base-k20z2-air-intake-system-sri-short-ram-acura I've heard that our cars don't respond well to aftermarket intakes. They go into limp mode and throw a code...
  5. Intake & Spacer Discussion
    I was thinking of getting a new CAI, & exhaust for my stock, automatic 2011 civic, but wasn’t sure if i might as well get a new ecu while i’m at it. Not trying to get a ton of power or anything, just trying to make my daily a little more fun. Also if you guys have any brands/recommendations to...

  7. ECU Tuning Information
    All I have on my car right now is the Hybrid racing 3.5” intake. I plan on running I/H/E soon but I have to wait for full race to respond to my email (my dum**** bought it without looking and got one with the 3” inlet lol, hopefully I’ll be able to just switch the tubes). I’m for sure getting a...
  8. Articles - Engine, Other
    Just installed a CAI in my Si and now it seems I need a tune since the intake triggered a CEL and surge idling. Obviously, I could go Hondata but are there other options out there? Is there a way to buy a tune online and then buy an OBD to USB and upload it to my ECU via a laptop? Is there any...

    I have a cold air intake that goes next to my tire and i don't have fender lining. I was driving and it started raining really hard and my engine stopped and was jerking really bad. I limped it home after cleaning the intake letting it dry and using micro fiber to dry the intake pipe (There was...
  10. Intake & Spacer Discussion
    I've been lurking a while and I read something about how if you get an SRI you need a reflash or you lose horsepower. Is the same true for CAIs? Working with a 2009 Civic Lx btw.

    07 Civic Si. I’m having a problem when it rains or I wash it. Water coming down the windshield and getting my intake filter wet causing my car to spit and sputter when driving and even when left Idling. I was told I’m missing the entire plastic shield if I’m not mistaking that goes being the...
  13. DIY Honda Civic Engine
    Recently I received my Skunk2 intake and decided to make a DIY because this install can be complicated for first timers. This install took me about 8+ hours. I also made a printer friendly PDF with pictures attached to this thread. This guide will not explain every single removal procedure, it...
