Where are you getting these prices, a used Si can be up to $30k now, the lowest I've seen an Si before covid was $20k. I've only seen 9th gens for $17k or less.
This has been the best, most informative video I've seen on what's needed, what it will cost, and what kind of power you're going to make. I haven't been able to find this info in one video anywhere, thanks!!
not to sound weird but i’m gonna upgrade my civic si until it reaches 300-315hp. honestly if i push it any further than that i’ll be spending more on repairs than parts.
Don't waste your time. I was going to do the same and planned just to keep it with minimal mods. IC, ktuner, exhaust will make a huge difference with worrying about serious problems.
I've had my 2021 hatchback No Si now for a year. Slowly modding it. My question is, could you do this build, or similar on automatic, CVT? I mean. Obviously not trying to make it a full on run car. But, a daily driver. Maybe once and a blue moon track car? Or maybe do some pulls against around cars...
@zefpyy2172 A year later. I raced a 3.8 Genny. Base map. Won. I know someone with a FBO and Big Turbo, CVT. And, it's his daily. No issues. Stock trans. Seen a tuned CVT beat a stock Type R. And, recently got a new tune from D. ROB. Enjoying my CVT hatch.
I have a 10th gen and I have most parts. 8k for only 350 HP. I sold all the part and now 5.6k in my 8th gen and I’m pushing 493 WHP and 432 TQ RELIABLE.
These videos are very informational, thank you! I just began modding mine. Cold Air Intake is first up, eibach suspension kit is next! Thank you for informing me about the clutch! I know what I'm getting next! ^_^
Great! Herewith The Recipe for 300 HP Cold air intake system High-performance downpipe and front pipe Front mount intercooler kit Drop-in turbocharger upgrade Tuning solution like Hondata or KTuner Clutch kit Optional nice to have/might need Flex-fuel kit The above modifications on 91 octane fuel will leave you a bit shy of 300hp. On 91oct fuel most land in the 280-285 range. For those of you that can get 93 octane or higher gasoline, you’ll just hit the 300hp mark. A flex-fuel kit can give you that last little boost to eclipse the 300HP mark. All around $4k USD 😃
There are still three basic ways to recover wasted energy in a car and make more power: regenerative shocks, regenerative braking, and recovery of waste heat from engine exhaust, these methods including are improvement of ICE thermodynamics...more effective and least expensive
@@aaronn8191 lol, not the reason you're attempting to insinuate though. Greed is what it all boils down to. Ford decided to stop making ALL cars aside from the Mustang and pursue SUV's and crossover's.... fucking idiots. The Focus ST was basically 260 hp and an absolute rocket, I had a 2014 with a bit of work done to it and thoroughly enjoyed smashing a LOT of cars that thought they were going to walk me. 311 hp at the front wheels was good enough for me, super reliable power, was a really fun car until a semi rear ended me while doing 45mph and I was dead stopped, burst and damaged 6 discs in my neck.

I need some ideas on me and my wife's ten gen civic base model can I do a engine swap or keep the honda engine and make it faster what parts do I need for the civic engine k20 of what's the best engine swap for our civic
You should do a video like this on the accord with the K20C4 Engine, I am currently looking to trade in my car (K20C2) because I want more power (but a Honda) and was stuck between a si or a 2.0T accord
one question , is it possible to change front lights from simple one for chrystalic LED like on touring model ? or for this lights I'll need a different bumper ?
We love the clutch masters clutch kits that we have installed in our car over time. It sort of depends on your power goal and what you will be using the car for. Being higher hp we've ultimately settled on a twin disk setup with a lightweight flywheel.
@@maperformance so I have 2 goals. One is to max out the capability of the 1.5t. I bought a new complete FK8 motor and want to be building it with good rods and pistons and have the head done. So when the accessory brackets and motor mounts come available for the 11th Gen the motor is ready to go. I have Light Speed building some light weight magnesium wheels for it now. End result is I would like to build a ripping track car in that 500-600 hp
I got a 2.0 (6mt) accord w/ a stage 3 tune. Pushing around 280whp and 330 tq to the wheels. Honestly feels great for what it is, If it was auto i’d probably just call it a day (If i wanted something faster i’d just get a 340i). Since it’s manual i’m gonna go big turbo, intercooler, catted dp, flex fuel kit, and just a few other internal parts. As is, i’ve beat C300’s, Charger RT, modded IS350, Toyota Avalon, Genesis 2.0 & 3.8, and have kept up with Audi S5 on numerous occasions. If you’re 5k deep and can get your money’s worth selling the car then do it and just get something faster. If not just f it and go all out. Mentally you’d have a hard time trying to get rid of your baby lol
Try being 19.7k deep 😵💫 don’t really regret it but you can definitely can something a lot faster with the price Rods tend to go out when you push above 315-320 tq depending how you drive it
@@ImKotaa im getting near that, I've gone 23k miles on this setup and I got the car at 50k so im at about 73k miles now. I dont really push it unless someone wants to hear it or race me. It definitely is a quick car for what it is
Question that I can’t really find the answer to anywhere…I purchased the 27won race maf CAI and a Ktuner V1.2 with the TSP stage one tune. Can I run that same tune with all the mods in your “mild” list? FMIC, DP/FP combo, etc.? Basically what I’m asking is, at what point do I need to get a new tune past the stage one? Love the video and this channel!!!! Keep the 10th gen content coming!
I have the same mods, different brands. On TSP stage 1+. The preference is yours. You can stay where you're at or get it tuned specifically for your mods via e tuned or locally. The next time you'll need a tune for sure is adding flex fuel or a bigger turbo. FMIC does not require tuning, however the Race Maf does. That's why the company asks which Maf you have. The downpipe however, high flow catted may cause CEL but can be "deleted" through ktuner so you don't have the dash light.
I think suggesting a built motor and trans after doubling the power output is way too late. People blow their shit up and strip 4th gear way earlier than that.
Awesome video, so much great information. What kind of clutch kit would you suggest for stage 1 or 1.5 tunes? Are there any specialized tools you need for an install without a shop? And if I already have a cat-back exhaust, will installing a front and downpipe make the car louder?
Ktuner is trash. It’s buggy as hell. You have to reflash your car multiple times before the tune will take and ktuner has no desire to fix this issue according to the email responses I’ve received from them about it. If your going to track your car, like streets of willow for example, get the koyorad radiator and get a mishimoto coolant catch can. The factory system dumps your coolant to the street. For the clutch save yourself the headaches you will get from clutchmasters and spec and drop the money into the type r retro kit. The E85 flex kit is an absolute must get. Just order a set of new injectors because eventually you will have injector issues and you will notice it by jumping afr.
Yeah prices are nuts. That's about 7k more than it should be priced. I want to get a Xgen coupe but I just can't justify spending 30k for a used civic. I'll just wait.
Man I really love the 10th gen coupe bodyline but I would also love to drop a Type R engine and setup inside of it. Is that even possible? And what would the price tag on that look like?
I put 6k into mine but at 30k you might as well put something down on something faster off the jump and mod it out of warranty. Im probably gonna stop after flex fuel, which is my last mod left.
@@DjGo99 no one is K swapping these at this point. There have been maybe two examples that I know of where people have put K20C motors (turbo variants) into them but we aren’t there yet in terms of availability of motors or age of chassis. These are still mostly new(ish) cars. Much more common for people to come back with a built L15 when they blow these motors. I don’t know of anything off the shelf that you can do in terms of a k swap yet. You’d be pretty far down the rabbit hole at that point.
@@ehren-foley you can now buy complete crate k20c1 engine for about 11k from Honda. The Chassis definitely needs more time to develop or at least more people I should say document their swaps but seeing a k24a2 or k20z3 in an 2015+ civic si would be 🔥🔥🔥
If youre on ethanol, you'll see maybe a 15-20whp gain from going 2860->2867. If youre on pump gas there won't be a difference. More economical to get a meth injection kit.
Honda should have made a hatchback Coupe Civic Type R. If I was a RUclipsr I'd build a true or Civic type-r with the SI coupe. Swap the drivetrain, suspension and the extra tec out of the Type R. Seam Weld if the SI is not. If I was really rich I would make a custom 1.6 liter crank and piston setup. A K16 high rpm&boost.
@@darkknight097 I wouldn’t recommend that lol lots of people that I know got a refund a week after ordering and went ppg Rv6 is working on an “affordable” gearset
The point is is that the type r is around 37k plus taxes is around 45k just to buy the car stock. Then modding it will be more expensive. In this case buy a used evo it's cheaper and make 700 hp or more. More of a budget build if you perfer the si looks which let's be honest the coupe si looks wayyyyyyy better then the type R. Also another route get a mustang gt 420 hp stock for around 30k. Maybe ways to go around this but it's an so cut it some slack
@@Stormtrooper-oc4vn I don’t know how you’re getting $8,000 in taxes man. I went from an 2018 si FBO on ethanol with a spec clutch and flywheel and had nothing, but lockout issues. I traded in and paid $37,500 for the R plus taxes I was around 39k. I am fbo on now on 93 and make 385hp RELIABLY. You can’t compare the 2 cars. Yes, if you want a fast straight line car get the mustang, though I hang with new 5.0 ‘a and 392 scat packs all the same 👍
Great question! We recommend anytime that you add additional hp over the stock hp, that you should consider upgrading the factory clutch. Even with just a Stage 1 tune, we've seen that the TQ is too much for the OEM clutch to handle.
You're not finding a 2020 Si for 20k or less and good mileage in pre Covid. Got mine at 23k 6 miles on the dash. My ex got one for 22.4k. This was in Oct 2019 and mine was in August of 2020. Good luck getting one now for 20k 😆
@@walkerhendricks4533 most g35 are all clapped out now, they are too old. Even a lot of the g37s are clapped, I spent over a year looking every day for a g37 stick
Hmm increase power...replace brake pads, clutch, throw in a intercooler....but not the discs!? This isn't the way to go! this is your advise ?? to not be able to stop safely!
So assuming you can pick up the car for 20k, another 5k in mods almost, and let's leave out labor, that's a high estimate of 250whp for 25k on a "mild build"? Fuckin yikes.
that 1.5 can barely hold 350whp let alone 500+.. I work at Honda and we have seen SOOO many issues just from full bolts on and tune.. Pretty much everything from head and block issues, to overheating turbo issues, and also some drivetrain and transmission issues. In all reality, to push this chassis to like 500whp and have it be any form of reliable, you are gonna have to spend a small fortune. Let not forget none of the price in the vid include labor which is usually always MORE than parts. Performance shops avg at least $100/hr for labor.
Valid points! We just want to give customers an idea of how much parts alone would cost to make certain power levels! DIY is definitely the way to go if you don't want to spend thousands on installs!
No one wants to talk about this. They suck so bad I stopped building these l15s at my shop. I can't let someone spend this type of money for such a shit result. They are nothing but problems. I plan on making a break down video on the block next time a blown one comes into my shop

As an owner and daily driver of one, the best upgrade you can get is a clutch… it slips bad, even in some cases on stock power.

What about a dual clutch auto and AWD? For around 6k I can buy a type R crate motor! How much to build that high hp?
Old k20s are better to build than type r motor.
And tbh, if you’re going to build, a B series is much cheaper and just as capable as a k series
@@Dailyshart h22
@@kangarojack3814 no doubt
So should I do the clutch first or the tune....
K series, plentiful, parts everywhere, after market support , 💯, tons more power , torque.
Does the 10th gen si need Valve adjustment after putting aftermarket drop in parts?
That isn't something we would say in necessary, but if you have a high-mileage Si then go for it!
This is an amazing video. Thank you so much. Set a good baseline of what to get and what prices I should looks for.
can someone help me out, ive been looking around for the info of difference between the SI and lower trims other than LSD?
Slightly different engine internals and tune. Better stock suspension as well.
2018 si coupe, got mine for $21k w/3miles, was fun but moved up to the fk8
Which gearset is 1500? I’ve only seen 4500
If you put $30k into your Civic you are a straight lunatic.
No
I put 6k into mine but at 30k you might as well put something down on something faster off the jump and mod it out of warranty. Im probably gonna stop after flex fuel, which is my last mod left.
Just buy a type r at that point. Plus I’m surprised he didn’t mention a K swap.
@@DjGo99 no one is K swapping these at this point. There have been maybe two examples that I know of where people have put K20C motors (turbo variants) into them but we aren’t there yet in terms of availability of motors or age of chassis. These are still mostly new(ish) cars. Much more common for people to come back with a built L15 when they blow these motors. I don’t know of anything off the shelf that you can do in terms of a k swap yet. You’d be pretty far down the rabbit hole at that point.
@@ehren-foley you can now buy complete crate k20c1 engine for about 11k from Honda. The Chassis definitely needs more time to develop or at least more people I should say document their swaps but seeing a k24a2 or k20z3 in an 2015+ civic si would be 🔥🔥🔥
If I already have a prl big turbo kit with the standard gtx2860r can I just upgrade the turbo to get more power?
Sure but you would have to get it re-tuned
And If you're at fuel limit you'll need fuel system
If youre on ethanol, you'll see maybe a 15-20whp gain from going 2860->2867. If youre on pump gas there won't be a difference.
More economical to get a meth injection kit.
you have one for the Honda Civic hatchback sport ?
Can I do this with a CVT transmission instead of Manuel ?
The CVT is considerably weaker than the manual, with a max torque capacity of about 350ft-lbs
Should I get a stage 1 or 2 clutch?
Hell yeah brother 💯
Do 11th gen honda civic sport pleaseeeee
Honda should have made a hatchback Coupe Civic Type R. If I was a RUclipsr I'd build a true or Civic type-r with the SI coupe. Swap the drivetrain, suspension and the extra tec out of the Type R. Seam Weld if the SI is not. If I was really rich I would make a custom 1.6 liter crank and piston setup. A K16 high rpm&boost.
What’s a decent clutch to run the max 450hp
type r retrofit
Do one on the 2.0T Honda Accord 2022.
It’s crazy that 90’s Honda’s are still faster and have more potential when the newer ones
Only if you swap the engine to a newer Honda engine
Thanks to the government 🤬
No they arent...stock vs stock newer ones are faster, safer and have more Q.o.l. stuff
Can I do these same mods on my accord with the cvt transmission
Lmfaoooiiiiiiiii
To an extent, but the cvt is much, much weaker than the manual in the Si.
Do one for the 8th gen 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Yes ❤️
Can these mods be done on 10th gen civic ex sedan?
Many will be able to as it shares a similar 1.5t engine. Give us a call before placing an order to confirm though!
How in the HELL can a down pipe be more than an intercooler?! I'll assume it's a tiny side mount and not a front mount.
If you have a catted downpipe with an upgraded GESI cat, it costs more than an intercooler for these vehicles.
OK where are yall finding a gearset for the si that's 1,500 dollars?
Lmao thats what im wondering
Only thing I can think of is Mfactory's close ratio gear set. Goes for about $1800 tho
@@darkknight097 I wouldn’t recommend that lol lots of people that I know got a refund a week after ordering and went ppg
Rv6 is working on an “affordable” gearset
@@ImKotaa oh nice!
Do an accord 2.0 version
Better off starting with a more capable platform like the type r. Stock clutch will handle 500whp and you achieve big numbers with simple bolt ons.
That's too easy
@@cryxbaby2250 lol
Yeah.. that or a 9th Gen Si. No point in blowing it on a small engine Si.
The point is is that the type r is around 37k plus taxes is around 45k just to buy the car stock. Then modding it will be more expensive. In this case buy a used evo it's cheaper and make 700 hp or more. More of a budget build if you perfer the si looks which let's be honest the coupe si looks wayyyyyyy better then the type R. Also another route get a mustang gt 420 hp stock for around 30k. Maybe ways to go around this but it's an so cut it some slack
@@Stormtrooper-oc4vn I don’t know how you’re getting $8,000 in taxes man. I went from an 2018 si FBO on ethanol with a spec clutch and flywheel and had nothing, but lockout issues. I traded in and paid $37,500 for the R plus taxes I was around 39k. I am fbo on now on 93 and make 385hp RELIABLY. You can’t compare the 2 cars. Yes, if you want a fast straight line car get the mustang, though I hang with new 5.0 ‘a and 392 scat packs all the same 👍
Would you advise to follow the mild build and follow it in that order or would it be better to do intercooler and clutch first?
Great question! We recommend anytime that you add additional hp over the stock hp, that you should consider upgrading the factory clutch. Even with just a Stage 1 tune, we've seen that the TQ is too much for the OEM clutch to handle.
so its around the same for an rsx?
I wouldn't say that because those cars are a completely different platform. We will be carrying more RSX parts in the near future though!
@@maperformance bookmarking website then 👀
Thank you so much
And it's a cvt auto. No manuals here. Rare find. It's also a Sport
What mod would I need to add 1 hp?
A cool, fall morning should give you about 1 more HP! 😂
Seem like i can't find anything on 9th Gen Civic Si...like my 2015 Si in ur website
does this work for civic ex t
Some mods are compatible as long as it shares the 1.5t, give us a call to confirm though!
A year later and now most of the Civic SI's near me are $30k even if they are a 2017. FML
Over 4k to be at 240-250 wheel. Add it how much a used si cost, mise well find a used type r.
You can barely find base model civics for 20 whats he talking about
Now yes. Pre covid it was not a problem to find an SI with low miles in that range.
@@paulzaleskiii3646 ive never seen those prices for 10th gens
You're not finding a 2020 Si for 20k or less and good mileage in pre Covid.
Got mine at 23k 6 miles on the dash.
My ex got one for 22.4k. This was in Oct 2019 and mine was in August of 2020.
Good luck getting one now for 20k 😆
Paid 20k OTD for a 2018 w/ 18k miles pre covid. It was possible.
Picked up my 17 coupe for 13,500 clean title and all…… might have had to replace a few things though 💀
I bought my 2020 si for 26k. And I love it
No oil catch can?
A catch can is a good upgrade, but you won't see any power gains from doing so!
Do a video on the R though
For 20 thousand you could buy a v6 6 speed 9th gen accord, or even a good condition g37 manual
or a v6 g35 if you want a cool car for cheap
@@walkerhendricks4533 most g35 are all clapped out now, they are too old. Even a lot of the g37s are clapped, I spent over a year looking every day for a g37 stick
@@mrmiagi6052 yea g37 or 370z are both cars that are the same price as an si but have way more hp and performance from factory
When the new golf r comes out I would like to see you gays build it
LSA engine swap?
😳😳😳
Hmm increase power...replace brake pads, clutch, throw in a intercooler....but not the discs!? This isn't the way to go! this is your advise ?? to not be able to stop safely!
Brake discs have less to do with braking performance than pads! Slotted and drilled rotors are a viable upgrade, but not necessary on a street car.
So assuming you can pick up the car for 20k, another 5k in mods almost, and let's leave out labor, that's a high estimate of 250whp for 25k on a "mild build"?
Fuckin yikes.
Lol I guess 250whp comfy car that gets 40mpg don’t see a problem with that
9k coupe with 173kmiles, wish me luck!
11th gen mod video please
I have a si but it the 11 gen 😭 I hope this work
So basically rob a bank and sell a kidney, got it !
Anything for the build!! 😅
@@maperformance anything for the female
No grippy tires? Damn Im surprised 🤣 I’d think you’d definitely wanna upgrade your tires
I don't think they sell tires hahaha this is prices for the products they sell
Definitely going to want some good rubber! Hit up our friends @fitmentindustries!
Soft sticky tires and lighter wheels was the very first thing i did
that 1.5 can barely hold 350whp let alone 500+.. I work at Honda and we have seen SOOO many issues just from full bolts on and tune.. Pretty much everything from head and block issues, to overheating turbo issues, and also some drivetrain and transmission issues. In all reality, to push this chassis to like 500whp and have it be any form of reliable, you are gonna have to spend a small fortune. Let not forget none of the price in the vid include labor which is usually always MORE than parts. Performance shops avg at least $100/hr for labor.
Valid points! We just want to give customers an idea of how much parts alone would cost to make certain power levels! DIY is definitely the way to go if you don't want to spend thousands on installs!
No one wants to talk about this. They suck so bad I stopped building these l15s at my shop. I can't let someone spend this type of money for such a shit result. They are nothing but problems. I plan on making a break down video on the block next time a blown one comes into my shop
@@Alexbuilt would love to see it! At my dealer we are not allowed to film! And I could get fired if we show the car in a bad light! No one can take any constructive criticism anymore and all people do anymore is hide the issues and problems
17k? When it came out it was like 25 msrp
This sounds like 1990 mazda turbo II days of yesteryear
