Not sure if you're still in the market for a bolt-on downpipe, but this one retains your primary cat and only removes the secondary (after the o2 sensor). I'm currently running this and have had no issues so far...
Thanks. So I ended up tearing open my valet key and pulled out the transponder from there since I never use the valet key. It took a good 30-45 minutes for me to get it open even though I used a dremel with a cutting wheel attached. I was just being careful and didn't want to accidentally cut...
I realize this is an old thread, but I've recently revisited the flip key mod. I have a case that has a little pocket next to where the key pivot is, and after going through the thread it sounds like the transponder doesn't need any power. I have two regular remote keys (let's call them key #1...
I've had no issues with mine that I've had on for almost a year now (through a pretty warm sacramento summer last year too). I did look into possible issues with coming off it and ended up buying some 3M Super Strength Molding Tape (I bought the 1/2 x 15 roll from Amazon) to replace the...
B took me a few days to adjust to. It was just the muscle memory of the transition from gas to brake, it felt like a had to apply more brake pressure than usual.
I think now I just need to wear shoes that put me in a position to get a better feel for the pedal and my foot placement when I'm...
I installed this earlier in the year but haven't really been practicing. I had my spacer on the "B" setting at first where the pedal is positioned closer and made just about level with the brake pedal, but I struggled because the gas pedal was positioned too high to blip the throttle while...
Looks good!
You can't tell that much from a few feet away, but up close on mine you can see where the masking tape was. Normally I would remove the tape right after spraying with plastidip, but since I spray on the glossifier, I had no choice but to leave the tape on.
When I removed...
Just performed the first oil change on my Si. The factory fill looked pretty brown coming out (around 7k on the ODO) which I found odd, or maybe that's expected? Not too sure about that.
Anywho, I filled it back up with Mobil 1 5W-20 (Advanced Full Synthetic jug) with a Napa Gold filter...
The K&N SRI looks like a solid setup from what I can tell with pretty good gains according to their dyno graph.
I think there are two main things users are frowning upon. Firstly, the fact that they use oiled filters which can cause oil to buildup in the intake track over time (depending on...
I like the look of it, and I added the glossifier so that it wasn't completely matte like plastidip normally comes out.
Thanks, I think I'll just keep it the way is for the badge. The debadged rear civic and si emblems as well, so I still have the chrome "H" and the chrome accent between the...
