What to do, what to do...
Okay, after buying 5 cars in 5 years I bought a 2001 Civic coupe and have decided to actually keep it for a while and throw some $$ into kickin' it up. So far all I've added is an AEM intake, tinted windows, blue xenon headlights and that's about it.
I'm looking to keep things classy (no pimpin' body kits or mega-loud exhaust) but want to improve the performance and set the car apart.
I'm thinking a MagnaFlow exhaust and maybe the Buddy Club body kit but other than that haven't figure too much out so any ideas you have would be great. Maybe let me know what your idea(s) would run me and the gains I can expect.
Thanks.
Oh by the way, does anyone know what mod's you can make without blowing your warranty? The car came with 160,000 km warranty so I don't want to void that too badly.

the warranty thing is really up to the dealers ...i know that with mine as long as i have them install it they keep all warranties..i could superchage it if there was one and have them install it and they would allow me to keep my warranty...but mainly if they cant prove that it was the cause of the problem than your ok...but again anything could void it...depends on the dealer ...at least here its that way
engine wise my dealer said intake/header/exhaust and u cool, go beyond that and prolly void ur warranty, i dunno bout them installing parts for u and u keepin ur warranty....i dont think my dealership mechanics r smart enough for that........

Ya, I know what you mean about the exterior. The only draw is setting the car apart a bit. But not at the cost of a clean, classy look. As for the monster inside what would you suggest?

For right now, I am going to work on making my car look good, with the exception of an Intake and Exhaust. Then when the warrenty is up if they have any turbo's or S Chargers out then I will slap those on.
