Cross Member Back on

Looks awesome... Fairly simple install... When i was running the car i was tightening a couple more bolts on the crossmember and the fans turned on scared me a lot louder and faster then the stock fans. Way more noticeable over stock if you put your hands behind the fans.Still Left This Winter To Install

Im Also gunna Paint my Valve Cover.
BLACK or FUJI BLUE PEARL(to match the color) lets get some feedback.
Thank You Everybody
You could of just called this thread your build thread or something... cool anyways but I'm curious to see if you really gained much changing from the Mugen exhaust to the Skunk2.
lol.
Kinda was thinking the same, but I wasn't sure if the Mugen Si came with a special mugen exhaust or not, I always thought it was just the body kit and wheels that justified the 30,000 dollar civic.
Still a nice car OP, atleast you kept the GPs on there. Would be blasphemy to get rid of those, but if you do and want to sell them cheap.. hit me up

So your piping went from 2.5" stock to 2.75" with a fiberglass packed fart can, your point? Lol, you could've saved yourself some time and just bought a regular Civic Si and get replica mugen stuff, to match your replica everyth... nevermind.
GREAT build. :-)
GREAT build. :-)
actually thats kinda funny you asked seeing your profile pic. Im a Marine. I got hurt in Iraq and the Marine Corps medically retired me and now i Collect 90% disability from the VA and I work as a civilian now at a Army Base (Rock Island Arsenal).
first, Semper Fi.... Nice car, but please clean that engine bay and make it look like the outside of the car, protect that investment. btw TRY NOT TO DO TOO MUCH MORE TO THAT CAR! enjoy!!!!
thanks man. And yeah Ive got it stored in my garage for the winter so its got a little dirty.
thank man
i could care less about the contraversy... Skunk2 makes great parts and I'll keep buying their products among other regardless of it. but thanks for at least check'n out the car..
Nice build yo! There's always gonna be haters. I got a megapower header w/ megapower 70mm. I'm interested in the tune w/ those parts. I'm currently tuned w/ flashpro by VitViper @ e-tunez.com. Thinking about getting some of the parts you got installed!!!
thats who i plan on having tune mine.. what all do you have done and what were your numbers???? do you have a build thread link??? as for the haters yup they are everywhere they dont bother me...
No build thread. Got skunk2 megapower header, skunk2 70mm, engalls etd, flashpro, injen cai, p2r tbs, hondata img, bunch of interior stuff, skunk2 pro-s v2, & skunk2 rear camber arms. My e-dyno results are below.
