Lose weight, or as ive said before, dont waste time and money trying to make a performance car out of a reliable daily driver.... thats not what it was built for, enjoy it for what it is
its hard too when u wanna thrash it every so often. probably a cold air intake, chrome intake manifold is a good starting point. then move onto stuff like rebuild head
or sell the civic n get a car that's better suited to be modded...seriously, if u want performance, the new civic is not really a good choice to start...plus u can't really use much of all those power gains on the streets (as for daily driving), unless u go to track;)
- k&n pod filter
- some sort of piping that will deliver cold air to the filter
- fullway exhaust
- extractors
- removing spare tyre & jack for lighter weight =p
goodluck ... simple stuff n its cheap :]
turbo it.
dont touch it man, **** me... its not a car geared for performance
lol you'll be very grateful for this when you get a flat and noone is around to help.Quote:

The following should do the trick:Quote:

5. or maybe SRI (with heatshield) or CAI
You should feel a difference :thumbsup:
