i have enough money to really do whatever i want but i have a kid on the way you know so im trying to pick the least costly right now but that would still be effective i was thinkin cold air headers exhaust stuff like that just wanted peoples oppions on what product to purchase or what to get and all that stuff.... and i have experince with my 96 honda civic d16y8 but the 07 si is just kinda new to me you know... just want to only put what is best on it

You mean you want to put 19's instead of the OEM 17's which are on there now?
I dont think I would want to go any bigger than 17's, maybe 18's on the 8th gens. IMO, just get some wheels which are a little wider if you are not happy with stock.

You will get WAY more enjoyment out of a good suspension setup (read: not freakin' stechs on stock shocks!) and wider wheels with nice tires than the Intake/HEader/Exhaust route.
Exhaust note on the stock Civic SI of that gen sounds pretty good IMO and there isn't much advantage to opening up the airflow (maybe a couple ponies at best)

1) Id lower them with coilovers, instead of springs. Springs are better, but def more expensive, unless you got the hookups.
2) Intake is going to cost you more than the older cars, because your car is new. Look it up and you'll see.
3) If you wanna get more exterior, get some fog lights. Fog lights look sick on Si's. Also, get a different emblem. I'd get it Red, but they also got a charcoal one.
4) Exhaust, headers, etc is ALL gonna cost you more because your car is new. My advice, just drop the car, and leave it that way. Stock Si's already come fine. What color is your car anyway? Pics?
BTW, congrats on the car. I got an 07 Sedan too, but an automatic EX.
