Talking Ordered my first Mod

I can't wait. Just ordered a aem sri. I just bought my '03 civic si about 6 weeks ago. Didn't want to risk anything with a cai. I know I am so gonna get hooked on modding my new civic...curses to this addiction.
Thats how it all started on my '89 crx si. Now I want to sell it for more $ for the civic.

Anyone want to buy a zc crx???

Start with the K&N FIPK II intake.

I had a AEM CAI....the piping would get real hot from radiant engine temp.

The K & N is cool and is well gurded against heat

hey make sure you break-in your car first! at least 800kms should do it, but i suggest you drive till maybe 1500kms... it also gives a chance to get the feel of stock before shifting to a slightly modded engine

I don't have any extra parts if thats what your asking. And it would be kinda pointless for me to take anything off of it. But what I do have is a single deck aluminum wing that i never did install. Its not too bad looking cause it sits low. Not like those really freaking tall ones you see.

Nitehawk : lol. its so funny you mentioned that. I ended up trading in my ex-gf for the new car. lol. Had to weigh the two out and decide what I wanted more. As you can tell I went with the Honda. (All my buddies said it was a good trade....)lol.

Msoft : I've got a few pics of it and I'll list all the mods done to it if you give me your email address.

iamfob : Check your email in a few min. I'm going to email you right now.

I'm gonna have to agree with SpoonSi... "that addiction begins" and it all starts with a simple, yet small mod... and next thing you know, you're ordering a body kit for the car..

IMO, having a g/f and a car shouldn't be a juggle... it all depends on who or what is more important. Mah gurl B4 mah Ride!!!

Well, quite honestly I wanted to brake it off anyway. It just sounds funnier when I say it was because of me wanting to buy a brand new car.

Header before exhaust?
My buddy has a '99 si and was saying something about how since an intake increases the airflow into your system, over time, its possible to crack your exhaust manifold because of the incresed pressure because of not having a larger exhaust system to release it in greater amounts. (with stock setup)
Is this the reason behind it?

Even with an intake, there is a limit on how much it can suck into the engine. So you shouldn't be worry about it.
