Default Civic Hybrids...does anybody really mess with them?

Are their any hobbyist's out there who customize their Hybrids? I know, I know...who would want to? Well, in theory, there is always room for improvement. Aside from looks, handling, and aerodynamics, are there people out there that change the exhaust, intake, computer, etc? Are there ways to further improve the fuel mileage or speed?

the only thing you can probably do with those hybrids is probably appearance mods. why buy a hybrid to mod when a regular civic get close to the same MPG
