Yeah thats what i'm wondering but the problem is the B-Pipe, and thats a stock part. I actually felt it being weird when i was stock but didn't get as big as a rumble.

I called formula, Gary seemed a little annoyed with me hah but he said he'll do it for me since I've been servicing with formual Honda everytime

Honda did not blame me for anything. Even when I changed my front struts at pickering honda the service guy was very nice about it and told me they are taking a little longer due to my after market parts, but that was cool. Hey netcbc, when you going on thursday. I'm also taking my car that day at 7:30am, maybe I'll see you their?

Yeah right your's is Aug 7 as well? Cool, i guess they are doing our cars together? Well I'll be there at 8am actually, you'll be half an hour early, what are you going to do about not having a car? I'm going to have to rent a car, are we supposed to get free rentals with warranty items? That may be pushing it i guess...

well gary asked me if I needed a ride to work, but I'm off work anyways so I'll be getting a ride from someone else. Maybe I'll see you their or something. I forgot to ask him how long it would take, shouldn't take too long since it's just a bolt on part. You can ask for the honda shuttle bus, they'll drive you home or where ever and even pick you up and drive you back.

I believe Babychai has a LX Coupe but Auto...

Yes I meant that, I do not notice any vibrations or noises when driving the Civic on wet road conditions.

Is it normal to hear like some sort of echo (with sort of metal noises ticking fast and consistent when you accelerate) or could it be the exhaust vibrating agaisnt something

stupid formula called me back and was like "its not covered underwarranty because you have an exhaust", man i just knew they would pull some crap like this, i left a message with Gary, honestly with warranty issues Formula gives me the worst crap all the time. I told the guy that the B-Pipe is stock and has nothing to do with my cat back exhaust, he just kept saying "custom exhaust", i was like "ok, transfer me to Gary"

i'll update later on the sit

Hey, netcbc I also got the call and those *******s won't change my b-pipe as well. They said I had some sort of brace(neuspeed x-bar) and non honda parts(exhaust and header) so they won't warranty the pipe. They just lost my business and I will never deal with them again.

Oh yeah netcbc, the b-pipe is called the midpipe and it's welded to the cat.

I see, so then you said you have a catback exhaust, so don't you already have a custom mid-pipe?? Yea formula is notorious for that BS, stupid thing is they sell the most aftermarket parts of all the Hondas

Hey netcbc, just got my car back. Saw your car in the lot, looks really good. What kind of springs you have on, your car looks really low.

No I didn't, just wanted my car back. Not going to deal with them again. Thinking of getting an aftermarket down pipe with cat. Maybe that will help with the bogging issue. My car also has neuspeed sport, but their actually for the 4 door so their not as low as they should be.
