Hey my names pat and i just got a 05 civic. its got the 1.7 liter motor in it and im wondering what are some good performance upgrades for it. i was thinking short ram intake to clear that mess out throttle body spacer and header and exhaust system. the exhaust was really trippin me up. is the cat spsrt of the exhaust manifold or does it have 2 cats. anyways let me know ur advice on parts and websites to check out. not looking for a race car just a lil sometin sometin to keep it on its toes.

haha good luck getting a racecar outta a 7th gen anyway. Get a better header and a catback exhaust system.

lol thanks man. i aint lookin for a racecar just somethin to beef it up a little.

intake and exhaust is primarily for looks and sound on the D17.

If you want power you could do a small NA build using Kpro, cam, intake, exhaust, etc. Or if you just hit up the track once in a while a nitrous kit on a 55 or 75 shot will do you well.

Feel free to message or call me if you need parts or have more questions.

Daddy knows best. He speaks the truth. Unless you go turbo, or swap out the engine....not really worth it.
