Default New to Hondas and Front Wheel Drive Cars

Hey Gang!

Well I am a happy owner of a new 05 Honda Civic EX SE. It is my first front wheel drive so it seems to handle a bit differently than what I'm accustomed to. I take it this is normal? For instance the car seems to wanna slightly pull when I give her some gas. I can't be tough rough with her yet..only 105 miles. Also, since I'm a noob what are the things most people do with their new cars?

Take Care,
JP

Welcome! In answer to you "what do most people do..." question, it depends on what you're aiming for. If its going to be a daily driver, than the most common upgrades for starters at Intake (preferably CAI), header, and exhaust. Hope that helps. Good Luck!

In the exhaust section of the forum of course. Try to read up and answer your own questions. Rather than being redundant on posting the same questions that are made everyday. If you need help, let one of us know!
BTW, Welcome!
