Any suggestions?
 
Soo a few months ago, I just brought a honda 09 civic lx and now that i had it for a while, i want to add better performance into it. I'm kind of new with cars in general but anyone has any good ideas where i should start first? As in adding parts to my car for a better performance for starters and not soo expensive?

Idk but i heard about a rev limiter, anyone care to explain how it works? Base on what i know, i think basing on the type of limiter it is, it can increase your rpm? :shrug:

minor boltons like intake/header/exhaust? rev limiter is programmed in the car computer, so that you do not go past redline and ruin the motor. it limits the rpms, usually around 6800.

alot of company sell aftermarket version of those parts to replace the factory pieces to get a few extra hp out of the motor. may want to search around and get ideas what people have on their cars and brands.
