Background: Name's Royce, My wife and Shantel bought the car brand new in Sante Fe NM. Test drove it at 5mi and rolled of the lot with 23mi. I know long test drive LOL. This is our second Honda Civic SI, my previous SI was a 8th gen RR coupe. I did all the cool upgrades, Buddy Club coils Skunk 2 header and a JR supercharger. Got bored with it and traded it in for a Subaru. Mean while my wife had been rocking here 2004 Forrester XT. I still have the Subaru and couldn't love it any more, I've Done three diff rotated setups on the STI. A gt3076r, BW s200X Single scroll and the new BW EFR with a full race rotated setup. After receiving orders to Germany the wife and I started looking for a good car to cruise Europe in being that my STI runs on E-85 and only gets 8-10 MPG and her XT a mere 20MPG. Along came the 2012 Civic SI.

Will dyno with reflash soon! Click to watch the dyno after the graphs, the first is a video and the rest are pics.

This is corrected SAE with a factor of 1.20 that day, And smoothing on 5. I believe with smoothing off there was only about a 5-7hp spike. No biggie.

So in your opinion, is the rear sway bar worth the money? I found the handling on my Si coupe sub-par... it improved a lot with the install of the HFP suspension but could still be better. Oh and welcome to the forum! :)
 
Heck ya it's worth the money. It was only like $100 and it balance's the car very well.

Please ADD to build
 
Thank you, So Im decided on BBS LM's now for the offset??? And size??? Hmmm decisions.....
 
Hondata reflash is installed and I am loving it, BY BY REV HANG YOU SOB
 
glad to hear it.... I know others said it really reduced the rev hang
 
Yes the rev hang is gone now, I have not really noticed a performance increase but most cant when it's minute, well see what the number's say when I get it dynoed this week.
 
I dynoed the CIVIC with the re-flash, I'll post corrected and uncorrected results tonight. I also received the Injen intake tue and installed it yesterday, Pics and dynographs soon.
 
Did you dyno the injen with the reflash? ...or stock air box?
