So heard about the forum from someone and decided to share my EK9. Have only had it 2 weeks and well pleased. Just trying to get more power out of it now. Mods are:

Ohlins Coilovers (height and dampening)
Feels Clutch line
Spoon Cat-Back
Mugen F-10s
Yokohama 205-45-16's
Rear polished strut brace
Mugen Lug nuts

Generally a very clean car and has a full jap service history so it keeps me happy. Have a decat in the garage and had an AEM intake ordered but has been promptly cancelled for a Mugen one instead.

Cheers mate. I seem to be getting a Mugen one at a good price too so well pleased. The search button is my friend:D
 
welcome! TODA manifold is best, if its out of your budget go for the 5zigen
 
Welcome, the car is looking very nice. Love those Mugen alloys :D
 
Thanks everyone

Is the 5zigen any good? Have heard good reports on them :secret:
 
cars lookin good man:nice: well as for manifolds had a 5zigen one didn`t like it didn`t fit properly but others will disagree, now have a full spoon system and boy oh boy the difference is amazing, pulls a lot better and feels a hell of a lot more torquey.

I vote spoon ! lol:D:p
 
Paul W all your car is missing is the exterior Civic Type R stickers :D

Other then that your 9 looks goooowd especially with the Bronze Mugen wheels and the height of your ride looks sweet:secret:

Keep it up

I was thinking aboug getting the Spoon system myself. Was it very pricey? Did you get the Street muffler or the N1? Is it v.loud?

got the mani and b-pipe second hand and bought the n1 and de-cat brand new and boy........... it sounds amazing ! it is loud yeah but it sounds good imo. and the difference in torque is very noticable ! pulls a lot better through the gears:nice: brand new your probz talkin bout £1200+ i recon includin the mani and that.
