  1. Hikari H11 LED headlight bulbs review

    Two year update: one bulb fried itself so i switched back to the stock bulbs. The hikaris did not end up having as good visibility as the stock headlights either way. I would probably go HID next time if I got a new set of headlights.
  2. Resonator delete review (2017 civic SI sedan)

    So, I went and had the resonator removed and replaced with the same diameter straight pipe. First impression? This is how the car should've been from the factory. It's not excessively loud, and it doesn't drone. If completely stock is a 1 out of 10 on a loudness scale, it's now a 3 out of 10...
  3. Socal: recommend me a shop to get my resonator removed

    So... Just got back from DMC Exhaust Werks. Totally recommend the shop. Chill people, great work, attention to detail, overall great experience. Only $50! For those of you wanting to do a resonator delete, I'd say go for it. It makes the car sound like it should've from the factory. No drone...
  4. Socal: recommend me a shop to get my resonator removed

    Going with your suggestion and heading over to them today. Wish me luck.
  5. Socal: recommend me a shop to get my resonator removed

    Why not just remove the resonator? It's not going to make a huge difference in sound, just give you a deeper rumble. You can always put it back on. Mine is a lease too, but I might buy it out... but why spend extra money on the glass pack when you can just put the resonator back later?
  6. So I'm fairly certain the TCS button doesn't fully disengage traction control.

    Precisely. Thanks for rewording it. Works great. Doubt I'll ever try it in the snow though... I'm wondering if when it's disabled it still applies the brakes during turning to keep the car's traction going.
  7. No Si exhaust available?

    Sedan or coupe?
  8. VitTuned Drop In Turbo Upgrade -- Initial Results Sneak Peak!

    @VitViper could you please post an comparison of stock (no tune at all) vs. turbo upgrade on pump gas?
  9. Socal: recommend me a shop to get my resonator removed

    As the title states, I want to get my resonator removed to get a deeper, throatier sound without having to wait 6-12 months and pay an arm and a leg for an exhaust for my Si sedan. Anyone know where to go to get some decent, affordable work done? Wouldn't mind getting the ugly HDMI exhaust tip...
  10. OEM Floor Mats are a joke....

    Totally accurate. Ruined my '16 floor mats in a year. Got the husky mats and I love them. Was going weather tech but they seemed overpriced to me, really happy with the husky overall.
  11. Anyone modified an Si coupe exhaust to fit Si Sedan?

    Great info, thanks. Are we to assume everything else is the same? If that's the case modifying a coupe exhaust to sedan should be simple.
  12. Anyone modified an Si coupe exhaust to fit Si Sedan?

    So, Yonaka is coming out with an exhaust for the SI coupe which I like, however I emailed them about an exhaust for the Sedan and they informed me that won't be happening to mid-late 2018. My question is, has anyone modified a coupe exhaust to fit the sedan, or know what would have to be changed...
  13. Yonaka Catback Exhaust

    Doesn't sound bad to me, and $499 is reasonable. Remember, it's just a catback, and we have a small turbo to begin with. Ktuner/hondata will always be the best bang for your buck power mod at this point. If they make one for the Sedan I'll get it, the sound is mild enough for a California car...
  14. Underrated (MPG)

    Car gets great mpg at/under 70mph... I average 40-43mpg at that speed. Bump it to 75-80mph, I see about 37mpg. It's all about staying out of boost and taking it easy on the throttle. If I shift at 2.5k and baby it in the city I even see 32-34mpg street, but forget it if you start hitting boost...
  15. For those of you running an LC2i for a subwoofer on 10 speaker systems...

    My general rule is 100-400 watts use 8 gauge, 500-1000 watts use 4 gauge,anything over 1000 watts use 0 gauge. You'd need the LC2i, a sub, a box, an amplifier, power cable/wiring kit, some speaker cable (14-16 gauge should be fine) and afternoon to put it all together. There's a lot of tutorials...
  16. For those of you running an LC2i for a subwoofer on 10 speaker systems...

    I looked at the post in question, however it looks like it's at such a high volume that it's negligible at best, in my opinion at least. Factory speakers get more than loud enough at 25 or so, although for the perfectionist I suppose using accubass would be ideal. I personally find the lack of...
  17. For those of you running an LC2i for a subwoofer on 10 speaker systems...

    The sub's cutoff is too low,I saw charts showing a sharp rolloff at about 50hz. This is why I added in one mid to the LC2i. I tapped in after the amp, that's why. Accubass not needed in this case. The civics factory amp does not lower the bass when you raise the volume.
  18. For those of you running an LC2i for a subwoofer on 10 speaker systems...

    Just installed my LC2i in my Si today, and tapped into only the subwoofer line in the trunk. Realized I was missing a lot of higher end punch on the sub. I tapped into the left rear speaker as well, and voila, full sounding punchy mid bass along with the deep sub bass. Problem solved. You have...

    Do you guys do alignment as well?
