I'll admit when I first joined this site I felt a little resentment owning a CL-P. I even started a thread about whether it was worth modding it or not. All I know is that its a great car and I truly believe that they both (cl-p and cl-s) are worth modding.
Yea this thread is really old but I was glad to see it.

I own a CL-P and i love it to death but the problems are coming up with the car. For some reason my car keeps misfiring. This morning alone my car misfired three times and it wouldn't let met try again until like ten minutes later which is scaring me. It seems to me like the sparkplugs are done or a sign of trading the car in.

Look around the boards, there are a few modded CL-P's that have edged out stock CL-S's.

Now imagine a fully modded CL-P vs. a Stock CL-S...
The CL-P's just need to breathe better in order to release more power. Even our stock exhausts are more restricted than the CL-S to keep the HP numbers down.

So now i have a question. Is modding a CL-P ok or should I not even bother doing anything period? I love modding because it's fun when I have extra money to spend a little here and there.

Why wouldnt you mod your CL-P? As you can see you can gain about another ~30hp from the right mods
Free flowing exhaust ~3-5hp (remember we gain more on an exhaust since our factory one is 30% more restriced than type S)
Cold Air Intake ~6-7hp
Headers ~18-22 hp

VERY COOL!
PS: I'll still race you ;-) It would be interesting to see the outcome.
