Finally installed my cat back today with a buddy of mine. Put on the DC 4-2-1 ceramic header, high flow cat, and the Tsudo cat back. After 3 hours of pain in the ass, it was done. Sounds pretty nice. Kinda loud, pretty deep, not ricey. When I get some clips I'll post.

I'll upload some pictures of the set up tommorow. The new power is great, its nothing to hoot over, but its pretty noticible, especially in the midrange. Just got back home, I couldn't resist, on a nice paved straight road from a dead stop I hammered it, shifted it manually and man does it scream. Sounds like a performance car, A+ for Tsudo, I highly reccomend the cat back.

A buddy of mine who also owns a Civic helped me install the cat back, we got it done in about 3 hours, but it was some what of a pain in the ass. Didn't fit too bad though. The car was purple at one point, the engine bay was painted before I bought the car, the springs in the front were cut to give it an aggressive look. And yes, the Elantra, yea its rice all the way. He has the 1.8l DOHC in that, we raced from a dead stop, by the end of the race I had him beat by about 250-300 feet.

I think your car will look nicer with the back lowered too.
What paint did you use to paint the engine compartment and how did you paint it??

Elantras are slow as all hell. That's nothing to brag about, even for a Civic.

New Tiburon SEV6 are fast though they pack a lot of torque compare to other car in its class.

When I bought the car last September I believe, the engine compartment was painted black to get rid of the stock purple. The springs in the front were also cut to lower the front end when I bought the car, I don't agree with that but that's the way it was. I plan on bringing the ass end down to earth some time this summer. As far as the Elantra goes, I know they're not that fast but at the same time cuincidently a neon jumped in on a race and I ended taking him out as well. But like stated above nothing to brag about.

fast03civic,
looked at the Tsudo system (from your recommendation) and the only thing listed for 05 civ's state "for EX only" what's the difference in the LX and EX exhaust system?

I don't think there's any difference between lx and ex at least as far as exhaust goes, its just a different package, long as the years are the same. Im gonna try to get some sound clips of the exhaust so I'll post. Suspension wise, I was just gonna get some DropZone struts, coilovers, and a camber kit.
