New '15 SI Build- Long Way to the Top

[FuriousN]

Hey everyone, just got my new '15 Si Coupe in Black last week, loving the car so far! I have to say I haven't had a car this fun since my '99 Integra. Anyways to my build plans, the time frame I'm looking at is over the next 2 or so years.

I have several different routes that I may go but they pretty much all end up somewhere in the region of 340-440 hp. (Either via Supercharger/Turbo).

This is the basics of where I am going to start, let me know what you guys think and if I'm missing anything or should hold off doing something.

First Year:

Cosmetic:

15-25% Tint all the way around (May change % on rear window/sunroof)
Debadge Civic and Replace OEM Emblems with JDM
Eibach Pro Kit 1.2" Drop

Performance:

P2R Civic Si Throttle Body Spacer & Gasket kit
PRL 3.5" CAI System
Full-Race 3" Downpipe (
Full-Race 3" Cat-Back Exhaust (Possible Cat delete)
Hasport Rear Motor Mount (U62A)
Hondata Flash Pro/Tune

I have heard some people talking about swapping for a ZDX throttle body and want to know if that is worth looking into or not, also if that is something for just a hybrid build or for mine as well.

Next Steps, Probably year, Or Two:

Grams Performance 1000cc Fuel Injectors
Deatschwerks Fuel Pump
Exedy Clutch/Lightweight Flywheel.


Going with Kratfwerks Supercharger Kit- Hearing lots of good things about these both from shops and other owners.

Do I need to swap my clutch with this? From what I heard stock tranny/engine on these were fine until 440+hp

OR:

PRL 9th Gen Honda Civic SI Turbo Kit -

The problem is with this I will be getting rid of the intake and the downpipe most likely as they come with the kit. (waste of roughly $800 depending on resale and if I can work something out with PRL).

And last but not least Rims/Wheels-

Work Cr-kai 17x9

or

ENKEI RPF1 17x9

Still debating on Tires an spacing....

Any feedback regarding my build/plans would be greatly appreciated and will post pictures and update as the build progresses. Thanks all!

Welcome! Sounds like a pretty awesome plan!

Don't rule out the ct supercharger kit. Vitviper seems to really like it. Build plan looks good.

Thank you!, still hashing some stuff out thinking about grabbing a k&n typhoon instead of the PRL for the mean time while I decide on the boost.

Hmmm haven't looked into them all that much, I will have to do some more research!

Stick with the PRL intake if you're gong to get one between turbo/SC decision. The rest of the intakes have not shown gains. Either get the PRL or stay with the stock air box.

I was looking at INJEN"S intake system and they are showing gains of 16 hp. Of course this is the fancy new design that comes with a smart tune map sensor or something. Anyone have experience with this intake or know anything about it.
