A local speed shop had a free dyno day yesterday. Put down 174 WHP and 122tq on a Mustang Dyno. I was pretty happy with the results. A stock 07 Civic SI put down 169 whp so it looks like the Spoon exhaust and drop in fiter are doing something.

first off, nice car. i love rsx's. but why spoon parts? they are like 343894072 more expenisive than other parts of the same quality. i could understand the exhaust because its unique to spoon. but are you getting the parts just because they say spoon?
just my 2 cents. good luck with the build!

I have done all sorts of Honda builds before: JDM EG6, Turbo DC5, N20 D15B, and etc. I am not out to build a fast car or a show car because I have already been there done that. This time I wanted to have a clean daily driver with high end parts. I am a HUGE fan of Spoon Sports the company and the race team. Thats one of the main reasons for going all Spoon. Even look at the Spoon parts thread on here, guys spending $$$ on Spoon parts simply because they are enthusiasts of the Company. I understand a lot of people will say that I could of have bought other parts of equal quality for less but thats not what I am trying to go for.

Picked up a brand new in the box DC5 Spoon Sport B-pipe off of a fellow crsx member RamenPoweredDC5. Its a full 2.5" inch mandrel bent piece with a straight through resonator. Also came with all brand new hardware from Honda in Spoon packaging.

I decided to ditch the stock air box and Spoon drop in filter for an Injen cold air intake. I wanted a little extra power and VTEC is completely silent with the stock air box. I also decided to get rid of the Spoon lowering springs for a set of Buddyclub N+ coilovers which are one the way in the mail.

does the mirror dull down headlights(AKA a$$holes in lifted trucks with their high beams on) at night? or is it just blue to be cool?

very clean RSX, BTW.
