SI stands for Sports Injection...

origionally meant that the car was fuel injection (remember 80's civics?)...

later meant it was SOHC VTEC (remember 92+ Civic SI Hatch?)...

later.. went on to mean it was the B16a DOHC VTEC (99+ Civic SI Coupe)...

In canada the sasme 99+ DOHC VTEC is called the SI-R or Sports Injection- Racer

In '84 there was a Civic S. S was for sport. In '85 feul injection was added so it became Si (Sport-injected). Look at Accords from that time and you see alot of LXi badges for the same reason
