whats up guys-

Im looking to see if it is worth getting either a ktuner tune or a hondata flash for my 2.0L CVT civic LX. I am also looking for other performance mods I can possibly do to my vehicle. There isn't alot of 2.0 love on this site lol but hopefully there is someone out there!!!

I already have:
-20% tint
-blacked out rims
-k&n drop in air filter
-LED headlights

Worth doing any performance mods to a 2.0L CVT?


Thanks!

Pretty sure rv6p and ktuner know what they are doing ... you were the one saying this k20c2 motor needs more mod support in the other posts ... so you should walk the walk and support the sponsors if they spent money and research for this engine

would you recommend me getting a short ram intake or a cold air intake? im looking at both and trying to research the differences between the two, or which would be best for our 2.0L.

Well apparently the tuner guy said the aem intake made no difference in power when paired with the catless downpipe ... but with the stock downpipe it made only a 2 hp over stock airbox ... so maybe not worth it since the aem cost $270
