Youre going to make it louder without making it noticeably faster. Exhaust and CAI are going to give you minimal performance, but they will work fine on an atx.

Hello: I worked for Honda and yes you can do the modes for this Civic... Go to Honda Performance.com You will find everything needed. Also If you put on a performance tire that is shorter then the stock tires It will give you a bit more out of the whole as it will give you a torque start. And a good air filter with the cold air intake ( K&N) You can also have someone rekey the computer for a power-curve increase. With a polished throttle body...It all boiles down to how deep is your pocket. As you can also modify the V-TEC Or add it If you dont already have it...And of corse Turbo and Nos but then you will need the Transmission reworked as the horse power will rip-up the stock one... Have fun.... From: Robert

of course you can. personally I WOULD put a cold air intake but I WOULDN'T put an exhaust unless you like that loud farty sounds 4 cylinders make. Get a chip to boost up the power, and a few other things like pulley set and cam gears. depends on crazy you wanna go on it

yes of course you can it would sound more beefy and would add more BHP depends on which induction kit and exhaust you buy(for the induction kit id recommend k&n induction kit or their typhoon kit depending on how much you want to spend). also if you were putting an induction kit on it i would highly recommend adding a cold air feed for more BHP, sportier sound. these are only like 7 pound or you could make your own, it up to you.

hi.first, all cold air intake will work for an A/T and M/T vehicles. i have fitted my Civic 2007 with air intake from Simota(air filter only) and the body i had fabricated from our workshop becuase the intake system is not yet available for my car.anyway, try going to their website and check which type of intake you prefer. i got mine from there.other than intakes...try getting high tension wires from Splitfire, and spark plug as well. I've also fitted it with grounding wire kits. i've also used a Castrol for my engine oil.please note that the items i wrote above are modifications i personally did in my home garage and they are all plug and play and very minimal. you could install them on your own. it is cheap but worth every cent. unless you wanna go extreme and costly, you could install aftermarket exhaust systems from Mugen or ignition coils from MSD. but then, this will be expensive and unecessary unless you wanna go serious racing.i hope this helps.
