  1. New Battery already?>

    My battery just DIED went bad at 2900 mi (20 months old). Honda replaced it under warranty and tried to upsell me on "battery maintenance" as the old battery leaked acid on my cables (I had to pull of my strut bar before taking it in so I know there was no acid leak) - Stealerships BTW the best...
  2. Any harm changing MTF early?

    Changed mine at 1k with Amsoil Synchomesh, big difference.
  3. 2020 SI Crazy Gas Mileage Near 50 MPG!

    DAMN! I do exactly what you do but barely get 33 mpg on full tanks. The first 1k miles, i couldnt get over 27mpg. I just realized that im not confirming the "computer" is calibrated correctly. And we all know that all our civics are 100% perfect out the showroom door. I need to go OLD...
  4. Advice on any "Gotta Have" Honda Parts for my Si

    door panels must come off
  5. Seat covers

    Posted these pics for the installed Insight Arm Rests & Console, but they are good enough (I think) You cant see it but the drivers one is RIPPED on the seam at the bottom attached to the back, $%^%#!!. I only have 2108 miles on my SI. Covers installed more than a year ago..... got what I paid...
  6. Advice on any "Gotta Have" Honda Parts for my Si

    Easy Easy Easy, .... with the help of a video. Took me 30 minutes (I had the right tools and I was trying to be "gentle") I advise doing the passenger side first before doing drive side. 2016+ Honda Civic Interior Door Panel Removal The console was harder but not by much. Took me 15 minutes...
  7. Advice on any "Gotta Have" Honda Parts for my Si

    You would think that I would have been able to posted these sooner, but my TO-DO List has gotten really really long. I did enjoy my weekly drive in the SI without worrying about being pulled over for speeding. Not saying I was going fast BUT I kept it under 100mph. I like the Insight pieces...
  8. WTF is this red light?

    :rofl: Damn, I think I hurt myself laughing. Not going to the doctor either. Not mocking, just funny. Hell, I can't remember to push up or down to release the parking break half the time AND I didnt figure out the dash display changed to RED when you engage the "sport" option.
  9. Mishimoto v/s PRL v/s 27WON Intercooler

    Congratulations!! You are just like the rest of us addicts: impatient and wanting a good "fix". :spaz: Love my intercooler but didnt like my mechanics excuse for high cost to install, should have done it myself but... impatient. its a vicious circle..o_O Think Im going to "self-quarantine"...
  10. Best next upgrade?

    Seat Covers. Floor Mats.
  11. Longevity issues with aftermarket RMM?

    Production of new parts is slow as demand isnt that high yet on new cars AND the current state of production for everyone is now delayed. IMHO buy something thats in-stock NOW or you wont be able to get it for a while, whatever it is AND you have time now to install it yourself (took me 90min...
  12. Mishimoto v/s PRL v/s 27WON Intercooler

    I bought the Mishimoto on whim as they advertised 45% Off, so i bought the whole kit w/ pipes for about $500 which was less than it cost to install it. I normally do all the part installations myself but I was dreading the hassle, now I whine about the install cost. If I had known 27Won was...
  13. Rear motor mount - first / only mod -

    IF you like the feel of direct line power more than comfort then ANY RMM wont work for you, inserts are the way to go. BUT at some point you should find somebody with a RMM installed and drive it and see how it differs for you. I chose the 27Won cause I wanted the precision and feel of a really...
  14. Seat covers

    Update on these, they are already tearing at the seam (drivers) where the back/front meet at bottom of seat. #$%@!! Heres the kicker, i only have 1900 miles on the seats and im a skinny bean pole so it wasnt cause of my weight/size
  15. I can't stop driving my car!!!

    If increasing the noise, vibration, and harshness a bit is a plus for you as it lends itself to really being "tuned in" to your vehicle, I suggest replacing the stock rear motor mount. I replaced mine with the 27Won RMM but I think it would be over kill with your exhaust. Maybe a Hasport 62A...
  16. I can't stop driving my car!!!

    Seems a lot less noisy (interior cabin) than I thought it would be, did you replace the Rear Motor Mount yet?
  17. Rear Motor Mount: Wildthing, you make my heart sing...

    ***Update*** Took wife for a spin on her birthday, I only put 80 miles on it since installation. The cabin noise seems quieter a smidgen. Asked the wife about the noise and she said "yeah, sounds like sports car <manliness ego scale red lines> but its not my car..(comes back down)." During...
  18. Dealer markup based on color

    The dealer meant it was "rare" for him to actually sell one (in white or any other color).
  19. Rear Motor Mount: Wildthing, you make my heart sing...

    Great idea! (Too bad?) I live in Central Texas where its generally HOT 9 months out of the year and often not cold long enough to warrant RMM swap.
  20. Rear Motor Mount: Wildthing, you make my heart sing...

    Pulled the trigger on a 27Won Rear Motor Mount. After installation and driving it once for 25 minutes with my wife who didn't know about the install (hint, that's called a control group) or the actual purchase (yeah, already hiding things from the wife - not a good sign, I know). I chose the...
