Im getting aspec suspension this summer probablly on the 06 (600, im sold!)

Probably throw in a RSB, hondata when that comes out...hopefully can afford to get aspec body kit, but i doubt i'll get tints =T...NYC = illeagal...=50 dollars per window = 250 bucks everytime i see a cop...no thank you.

Here's whats not there that you gotta do: Progress RSB! It changes the whole feeling of how the ass end of the car takes a turn. Nearly eliminates body roll, and makes the car a tighter package. To this day, this is the best bang-for-the-buck mod. You can do this by just yourself in about an hour too, but you're going to need jackstands to get the ass of the car off the ground.

Neuspeed front tie bar: same effect (but less, sadly) as the RSB. Less bang for the buck, more of an engine compartment dress up piece too, costs just the same...

Oil catch can mod... I don't know the full effect of this, but by the sheer amount of extra oil it collects, I recommend it. I did it after thinking there was too much oil smell in the cabin all the time and the engine was burning the extra oil that got in there. I don't know if this is true or if its paranoia / self-fulfilling prophecy, but I smell less oil and am glad its in a jar instead of burning in my engine.

TB coolant bypass. It'll help your car most in the warmer months, which are coming up. Now, there's some concern that running this mod in the winter, in cold climates, isn't good for the throttle body, but Xixor has run it for the past 2+ DC winters with no problem. PGH isn't that much worse that here (at least cold wise). I know, I went to college in the 'burgh.

Injen CAI. Its fun. Its different. Its a bit of a performance booster. But be warned... it growls. Some like it hot. Some people think cucumbers taste better pickled.

Comptech Icebox (sitting on my floor, not on the car yet). Should have nearly the performance of the CAI, while being a box-style intake. Safer for inclement weather (reduced odds of hydrolock) and hopfully a little quieter than the Injen.

Tints... do it. 35% looks nice and modest on a Carbon Grey.

New wheels. If you want to. I have a set of Acura Silverstars on order (killer deal on the black market here)

Hondata heat shield... I'm about to get one, next DC install meet it will be on.

That's what I've done.


To-Do:

Hondata.... do it as soon as they release it for us Start saving your pennies now, go get a job at Primanti's or something.

Angel Eyes. I like these a lot in general, but I'm not thrilled with the Umnitza kit. I wish there was a full circle cold cathode application for us, or something a little more hardcore than those little onion rings. I know they are 'technologically superior' to the old CC style ones, but it just doesn't have the same BLING factor to it. I might do these eventually.

There's more that I've done and I'm thinking of, but I'm tired and I feel like this post is dragggging on. Oh wait.. didn't even talk about audio yet.....

I just got it installed last night....will get pics up asap.

06 installation is a pain in the....Is it just me or did i not remove enough parts? It seemed as if they wanted me to take out a screw, and push (flex really hard) on the bottom plastic, reach my hand inside blindly (mind you my angle was wierd cause i didn't ahve a jack) and pull out the bulb....
