Re: 2012 Honda Civic SI

With a k24 i'd start with the engine. Simple stuff.. Intake, exhaust, maybe a header. Tint your windows if they aren't, go darker if they are (within legal limit). Lowering is always real nice if you do it right.. If you have loads of money maybe a turbo? HID's are badass if done right. That's where I'd start anyway.

Re: 2012 Honda Civic SI

So I already have the tint as dark as it can go and the Headers, Intake, and lowering kit where can i take a look at some or if you have some recommendations for some can you let me know? I also want to eventually put a turbo in I just want to make sure I don't mess anything up when I do if you have any tips or sites that you know of that can help it will be greatly appreciated

Won't it void your warranty if you put aftermarket performance parts on it? I'm assuming it has one since its from 2012.

If it is under warranty (powertrain 5/60 in the US), you DO need to watch what you do to avoid voiding it.
Not all people in power view mods the same way, and all it takes is one bad judgement call by someone else to ruin your day.

Does the Si use oil? If you mod much, they may not want to cover the problem. Read more here on the oil consumption:
