It could be exhaust heat shield or maybe your motor mounts?

I'm thinking about getting 2.5" cat back. Get a magnaflow cat, and hks hi flow muffler. The car has an autozone a-1 exhast or what ever it is they have on it. It's not a deep enough tone for my liking.

Its a cheap mod that should make your car breath better...

I have said it before and I will say it again.
SUSPENSION MODS = FUN

Everyone all ways thinks that a more powerful engine, 5 extra HP will make all the difference in the world. Sadly thats not the case.

If you want to make your car fun stiffen up the suspension, work on the cars balance. Make it a joy to just daily drive.

Im going to go off point here but who cares right. I have a friend who has a built civic ( Engine Swap{k20?}, Gutted...). This thing is fast, he can beat WRX with bolt ons. I got to drive his car a while a go. When I got on the freeway oh man...that was sex right there. Feeling that torque that sudden power looking at the RPM's shoot up hearing the engine screaming its just sensory overload and its plain and simply awesome. Thats why so many guys get addicted to it. I still remember the first time I got go in a ride with my dads boss in his +600hp corvette with NOS. I was a kid back then but dam that was badass. Ever since I have been looking for that feeling and sadly I just cant afford it in my celi. Yeah you can swap in a 3sgte or go full on bad ass like subspec but thats a lot of money.

Now that doesn't mean that your shits out of luck. You can still have an awesome time with a bone stock engine. All I have done to my car is installed a set of coilovers, new bushings, better brake pads, and new wheels and tires. I can honestly say that my car is 1000% more fun to drive today than when I got it.

Here is my recommendation to anyone who wants a fun car on the cheap. Find a good set of spring and strut combo if you can afford it go with some coilovers. This mod alone will completely change the feel of your car. Next and really important if you plan on "having fun with it on the streets" upgrade your brakes. This really isn't that expensive and can make your car feel so much better. Next is replace all the worn out bushings on your suspension again not expensive at all but make a huge difference. then you can start looking at sway bars, and what not. Once all this is said and done your car will be transformed just like if it had had an engine swap.

Now every time you come to a corner the car will be begging for more. It will feel awesome. Every curvy road will become something of joy, soon you will start to take the long way home just because it has that nice curvy part that really lets you push it. Your car has 130bhp and 145lb-ft of tourqe, thats really not that bad. With the right suspension you can really enjoy that small amount of HP but it will also become more obvious that you need more power.


Sorry for the long rant, thats off topic but yeah...chinge su
