Without tuning, I'd say Procivic front grill and smaller wheels and better tires. Oh, and nano-ceramic tint.

How are you liking the Eventuri Intake? Considering taking the plunge on this.

I'm absolutely loving it! if you don't wanna bend over backwards for the price tag I'd recommend the prl intake.

I'd love to get a tune but don't wanna trash my warranty...
It doesn’t have to!
Get it installed by one of Hondata’s authorized Honda dealerships. I got mine done at First Texas Honda in Austin, TX. Warranty still valid; even got a loaner car while I waited!!

There is a dealer somewhat near us that does the Hondata under warranty ( I am close to you in Newbury Park, CA)

Spreen Honda in Loma Linda, CA, and contact is [email protected]

I have not contacted them yet, but if/when I choose to tune the car, I may or may not go this route. I don't know the specifics of how they do the tune, I am assuming that they would have to use the CARB legal ones. I am also unsure of after the fact if you added more parts and needed to update the tune, how that would work.

I recommend a Whiteline Rear Sway Bar, set to stiffest. It made a nice difference on my stock suspension.
