Hey guys,

Trying to get some Si intake and exhaust cams for my civic hatchback but honda requires a 2017 Civic Si vin number to complete the purchase. Can anybody help me out?

Thats what its looking like im going to have to do. Why does honda make things so difficult. They told me its a "Controlled Product". I'm looking at salvaged 2017 Civic Si's

I wonder if it's some EPA thing?
With the EPA's crackdown on aftermarket parts I keep hearing about.
Maybe Honda's complying with EPA guidelines by not selling OEM parts that can be put on models that didn't come stock with them.
Have EPA mandates become that intrusive?

If they have it’s kind of garbage. All I did was take a VIN from a salvaged civic Si. I’ll update if it works and they get back to me.

I’d be surprised if it didn’t work. You could do the same thing to order any restricted parts they offer (Mugen SI, etc).
