Talking Finally.. A site that acknowledges the 2001-2005 Civic!!

Thank god too, because I was getting tired of reading about the 6th Gen stuff!

Name is John and I drive a 2004 White Civic EX 5-Speed.

No real mods but I do have a JL Audio system.

As for planned mods.. It just depends on the "potential" of this motor I guess.

Glad to be here!

Welcome to the site. The motor has "potential" but it is going to take tons of work and don't plan on getting gains out of I/E/H because you won't get any. Only true power comes from turbo or k20 swap.

That is what I thought overall, kind of why I was pushing the "bling" route. Your Civic looks good btw.

I kind of figured that. Is there a site that gives exhaust clips for our cars? I wanted to be VERY careful before I bought exhaust. My neighbor has a 6th gen with exhaust and it sounds okay, but I've heard some AWFUL sounding 7th gens and was just wanting to play it safe if you know what I mean.



Sorry if it is available on search, I haven't looked yet.

I didn't mean it like that man, more like all show no-go like you said. I went performance with my last car. I lost A LOT of $ on my investment. At least with a flashy car its pretty to look at
