    If i had to do it over again, would choose a higher spring rate for the coilovers:cautious:

    4k springs on all 4 corners are a bit too soft for my liking.

    Haven't seen HKS too much since my mods in the 90s with my 4 door civic. Had on the HKS mushroom air filter and HKS full exhaust system. Nice low exhaust tone not too loud. Just right.

    Stock Filter had seen better days, so it was a perfect time for the upgrade :cool:

    My Observations:

    It took about a month after the install to really appreciate the true fundamentals of this part. HKS has been around for decades, so their reputation has been proven time after time. My MPG did go down 5% but that loss took the place of a small increase of mid range torque, which went hand in hand with the Modellista muffler.

    The stock throttle body was bored out from 55mm to 58mm. This included TB Shaft machining(Shaft is machined to a thinner profile to reduce turbulence) and a custom sized Butterfly made from scratch.
