The header is AWESOME...makes it loud, but with the EVO II being so deep and quiet, it makes a good compromise! As for the door not closing right...that's what i was talking about when i was doing this 
for about 2 and a half weeks trying to get it to work right...but i finally got it closing like stock...you wouldn't know i had them if i didn't rais them up. Looks stock and shuts like stock...
But apparently the door closing wrong is a big problem because after about a week, i took it to a customizing shop who does these doors and they said that I did a better job than a lot of shops around here and they suggested that i just keep messing with it until i got it...and after a total of probably 20 hours of working on it...i got it...(I know, 20 hours in almost 3 weeks isn't a lot, but I work 8-5 and it gets dark at 5:40, so i didn't have much options)
Either way...shuts perfect and looks stock...but if i want to show off...I CAN...

Rep Power: 0 I'm going to take my time before i get the turbo...i'm the kinda guy that wants to make sure i get TOP QUALITY before i go throwin money into it. I've only had the vic since August...I've come the the conclusion that i'll either do custom setup or DEZOD...either way...turbo is Definetely in my future plans...
My first thread on here was my custom turbo plans that was going to run me a little over $8000...but i decided that it was a little to rich for me right now...so i'm holding off...
Hopefully after christmas i'll get some rims and lip kit...lookin for some TSUNAMI Side Skirts if anyone knows where i can find some...And i may order a front bumper from the dude in Turkey that made Berk_civicTURK's custom body kit. Little pricey, but NICE!...
But like i said...lookin for TSUNAMI Side Skirts...they're nice and clean...pass the word around or let me know if you find some...

Rep Power: 0 Yeah...see...it's a mod that doesn't change anything about my car. I can open my doors normal(just not quite as far), so i don't have to do it, but it will definetely get me some points when i decide to take the car to a local show...

Rep Power: 0 all i did was chop off the stock piece and i mounted it by cutting the mesh a little (about 2in.) bigger than the hold and then trimming it so i could bend it around the opening(if that makes sence) then to hold it down i just used some good ol' duct-tape(SHHHHHHH cheap but it works) no screwing or anything so it makes it easier and clean...I should have done a DIY like a nice guy, but i didn't really want anyone to know i was using duct-tape...oh well...my secret's out now!
Think what you want...it works and it can't be seen...at least my bumper isn't being held on by tape...lol

Rep Power: 0 Actually...it was a 2002 ...and he thought that my car was turboed...he couldn't believe it...so i'm not surprised if you don't...
and yes...i was going a little fast, but i love making guys in heavy mustangs feel stupid when they think it will be an easy kill...just 'cause i'm a RICER!!!

Rep Power: 228 theres no way... i could believe it if it were a 4 cyl... but they only made v-6 in 2002 and of course the v-8. i have the same mods as you and there is no way in hell... My integra could barely beat a v-6 mustang. and a stock LS integra will take your IHE civic.

Rep Power: 0 Are you sure you have the same setup or just IHE? because if you don't have the SAME setup then your not pushing the SAME power...and just because i can drive better doesn't mean you have to be jealous. I know what i did...and i know how good i can drive...so whatever

Rep Power: 228 i do have the same setup... Megan Header / Downpipe, Thermal R&D Catback and SRI, you have an EX but that don't do ****. Bolt ons don't do **** to our cars. If it was you vs a stock 7thgen... it will probably pretty damn close. And im Oh so jealous of a n00b that can drive 117 mph. and your right... I suck at driving your so much better than me... i can't believe how much better you are than me.... i mean OH MY GOSH your so much better than me not to mention your better than everybody here also! Your so cool... i wish i was like you. Does anybody else want to be as cool as him?? i know i do!!

Rep Power: 0 Where do you get off calling me a N00b? Just because I'm new to the site does not make me a n00b...(that's a retarded word anyway, but i use it for the sake of everyone else)...And i CRUSHED a couple of stock 7th gens that wanted to race...so you're just blowin air...you can't validate anything you're saying...

Rep Power: 228 you make it sound like your bolt ons added 50HP to the wheels. They are bolt ons... you probably only gained like 5 HP... they dont do anything. you probably try to race subies and vettes. Anybody can vouge for me that bolt ons don't do that much. And im new to the site as well... lol and i hate the word n00b also.. but you driving like a jackass and racing everything out there... go to the ****ing track instead of streetracing... thats how people get killed. but it's your life.. you can do what you want. You can continue racing stock civics, and ****ing up your car by pushing it like its a race car.
