Greetings Internet weirdos!
Just recently purchased a brand new 2018 SI (us model) for $22.3k. I have had many Honda's in my life. My most recent Honda was a 2015 Civic LX also brand new and only owner til 65k miles (NO MODS). Then I traded that in for my now 18 SI with a 5yr 100,00 mile warranty (which was free).
After much research and driving my first 2,000 miles. It's blatantly obvious how nerfed the SI is, and quite frankly disappointing.
So should I ruin my car with some BASIC mods or leave it alone FOREVER! LOL
I've determined the only upgrades I would wanna do.
Hondata or Ktuner -
Seems everyone says Hondata is easyier if you have a laptop, and customer service is hit or miss.
While Ktuner is receiving excellent customer service reviews and now they offer v2.0 which includes a display for set up and what not.
PRL CAI -
Seems it's a unanimous decision that PRL CAI is the most ideal but is it really. Will it cause me to need a Flex fuel kit, I'm still unsure at one point someone needs a flex fuel kit.
Also add on different tires in the future.
Beyond that, I don't see myself wanting any more power/noise. This is my daily driver not a track car. Inless someone believes other benefits I missed, I'd love to hear.
