I not-so-recently purchased a 2013 Civic Si Coupe, but am a recent addition to your forum! It is my first Honda and have big plans for it, especially after seeing some of the build threads here and on other forums. I also subscribe to 9thgencivic, but have found your forum to be much friendlier and more open 
My intentions - after doing far too little research - are as follows (and in somewhat this order, as my budget is not endless):
- CDV delete
- Hondata reflash and tune
- Full Race Catted DP w/ Skunk2 76mm Cat-Back
- JDM Carbon Fiber body modifications; front, back, and engine bay (no sides)
- Seibon Carbon Fiber hood (or other custom hood w/ intercooler intake, depending)
- Supercharger: CTe or KW, still to be decided, and looking for recommendations, including possible new additions to the market!
- Proper CAI w/ SC (I'd imagine new ones will come out in the next few years as I prepare for adding the SC)
- Hasport full engine remount
- Stage 2-4 Clutch, depending on SC choice, etc.
- 500-1000cc injectors, also looking for recommendations on brands and levels depending
- Lightened flywheel. Again, looking for more info.
Piping (as in silicone tubing) is not a priority, as I am not looking to make this a show car, necessarily. Nor are other cosmetic additions aside from keeping the salt off my car in these harsh winters.
I know there are many things that still need to be added to this build, and some of them I have an idea of but am not sure of yet:
- Throttle body extension, etc
- Strut Tower Bar
- Widened Rear Sway Bar
- Additional Suspension Modifications, as in new suspension all together
- Looking for additional suggestions, especially from the big builders here!
After completing the Supercharger add-on, I will be looking at other specific upgrades including:
- BBK, preferably by Brembo, and in a size so large that few have done them on any Civic
- Rolling fenders to make room for tires of a size wide enough to accommodate the expansion in power with the SC, i.e. 18x9.5 - 18x10.5+
-
Already completed:
- HFP suspension (~1" drop, not looking to slam with Cleveland streets that have already bent 2 factory rims and 1 OEM HPD rim)
- HPD Wheels 18 x 7.5 wrapped with Michelin Pilot Super Sport in 225/40
- Winter Wheels wrapped with new W80 Blizzaks, 17x7 in 215/45
- 3M tint, to the extent of the law (Ohio sucks
)
Pics coming shortly.
