Hello to all.

Here is my DBP Si. It used to be an Acura TSX
We just got it a couple of weeks ago. We drove it to Charleston a few days ago and returned today. A fun car to drive, much more fun than the TSX.

Welcome

Thanks for the welcome.... and I need to correct Accord to Acura, though the TSX is a Euro Accord. I cannot get that out of my brain and the TSX did not seem at all like lux car to me, not like my Bimmers and Lexus did.

This is the eighth Honda in our family. We have had two Civics, three Accords, one Pilot, one CR-V. Of these, the 04 Civic LX remains (120K), an 06 Accord (105K), the 09 CR-V (40K) and now the Si (1K).

Welcome to the site...the dyno blue looks great . Fixed it to say "acura" in the post. You have any plans for modding it yet?

Thanks to all for the nice compliments, thanks to webby for repairing my Accord/Acura faux pas.

Mods.....I just returned from 2700 miles of vacation driving on all kinds of roads. What stands out most to me as needing some improvement is the suspension. I think it is above average for a FWD, but I am look at adding the HFP suspension and beefing up the sway bar. I am not hung up on lowering the Si. I want improvements in the ride and handling.

users who have the hfp suspension seem to like it. It's not big difference in drop, but it's an improvement on stiffness.

I have been reading that. Thanks 9thCivic forum!!

It sounds like the HFP suspension may be hard to get. My neighbor works at the Honda plant in Marysville. I think I will ask him if he can get the suspension kit for me.
