That honda is slow
-Kid with no car
EK9GraphicDesign This honda is not fast, but it's definitely not slow.
Bruce Lee i think its fast
I wonder what it does in the quarter.
+Bruce Lee the car ran a 13.0 on the 1/4 mile... On the tires that you see which are nexen cheap Korean tires... Fully inflated in sure I can see low 12's with some 15's and some radials
Nice!, your on par with the Terminator Cobras man. Keep up the Mods. I stand corrected it's fast!
What's your best Honda impression? Put it in the comments below!
Stay awesome.
"Boom" I got hit by a civic and yeah 😔

ThatDudeinBlue bbbbbdddennnnnnnnnnnnnn RED LINE. DROPS THE CLUTCH. brrrrraaaaahhhhhhaaaappppppppppppppppp "HITS TREE"
NAYYYYYYYYYUYAYYYYAAAAAA
Jeez! I was expecting like 250hp from it. 430? Thats crazy! Awesome car!
Gingium i make 225whp just from bolt ons and it holds it's own lol. Typical SC setups are around the 300-320whp range. This one is definitely a beast
Gingium back when gingium wasn't famous xD
& now he's on the channel himself
Madvillayo
That’s true
Gingium q
I like the sedan much more than the coupe when it comes to this particular generation of the civic. 99-00 is my favorite year however.
Definitely I like the 4dr better but the 99-00 coupe is my favorite
yup definitely the best si
Garrett Martin Sweet! I thought I was the only one. The 8th gen coupes look really odd 4dr to go (for this gen). Em1 are pretty sweet looking coupes too.
Garrett Martin Same here. I find the coupe ugly (no offense)
Garrett Martin me too the trunk look so much better and more agressive than the round trunk of the coupe
This generation of Si was the very best. Great motor, and driving feel. Just recently test drove a 17 si and it just doesn't have the same fun factor that this car has.
BM frankly 9th gen was last good gen with the N/a motor
The 10th gen is faster and handles better but without the high revving engine it is odd and totally different.
@@shangtsung1362 I went from an fa5 to a 10h gen si coupe with FBO and I absolutely love it
@@allenmoore7553 Nice. I had FBO and the TSP stage 1 tune. Also coilovers, wheels, stage 4 clutch. It was nice. But I started seeing people blowing up their engines on just a basic tune like mine and I was like nah, I'm good.
@@Washthebrain Not at all. good comforts but motor is ass as fuck.
This car is what I based my fa5 off, kraftwerks kit will be here in a week or so, mines silver too, dreams coming true, 3-4 years after seeing this
When you beat a evo with a civic so you take his bumper
I just bought a FA5. Downshifting when I'm already at 5k rpm is nutty.
400 hp in an FWD car would normally turn me off, but this Honda seems to put it to the ground easely. It also sounds very good :)
Wait... 5:24 - is that a Recaro Baby seat?! Haha! Start 'em young.
yea it is
i always liked the FA5 the most out of all the civics.
I am not really a fan of civics, but I gotta say this one is tastefully done.
hello see this videos
th-cam.com/video/FU8_oumQM0U/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/YrUKjdhPU80/w-d-xo.html
Men civics are another thing when you modify them 🔥
Great review as usual! Supercharged Honda's are something else to get back at when people say "lol no torque." Well, look at all this torque now!
wait, supercharged but i builds up boost? i'm confused..
leanderelfrink10 Power on demand. Supercharged cars don't have to build to boost like Turbo charged cars.
+Produced By Teflon of course, it's late here haha, i was like how can it be turboed and supercharged dafuq? haha
Kraftwerks kits don't make too much power. I was considering it for my FG2, but I have since decided to sell the FG2 for an '08 AP2. I plan on throwing a Ptuning kit on it, and see what happens. :p
+leanderelfrink10 people do combo charge vehicles...it is possible! There's a Lotus a guy built in California just to do canyon runs, and it's AWD as well I believe.
The only thing Honda fans can hate about the 8th gen Civic Si is the styling. It's one of the best Honda's all around in every way. Personally I love the styling.
Great handling, great engine, great reliability.
We need Zac Attack's turbo FA5 on here to go head-to-head with this supercharged FA5. That would be an awesome video
***** Didn't Zac end up dying ?
He's back with a new vid! Check his channel
LS1OfAKind HES BACK. THE RETURN 2015
LS1OfAKind LOL holy shit, I'm still here :)
***** I would loooove to run a well done kraftwerks FA5 :) We have a 500+ hp kraftwerks RSX at the shop, maybe I'll make a vid hahaha
The VTEC is realllll
8th & 9th gens are my favorite civics
Civics, Accords, and Civic Si have been Hondas babies for years now. When I worked at Flow Honda and the first Si came out it was nice. Every year they keep pushing all three of the cars and they are becoming the best and fastest every day drivers around. Honda is one of my favorite car companies. Dodge, and Honda are my top pics in cars but I love a wide range of cars from other people.The owner of that car did it right
that opening beat tho...
It was dope
MrManuel1329 Dope dough like coke though...
jo23bulls MISOGI - Clairvoyant
you're welcome.
dAbaPEsTA123 typo sorry
Skull you soundcloud fuccboi
The floor hinged gas pedal in these allows heel-toe-ing to be a breeze.
Own a FG2. K20 sounds so amazing. I recommend this car for anyone looking for a solid daily driver. Mods a plenty as well.
Disappointed you didn't keep it
@@JayAR_YT Lol six years later. Nah im glad I did. I still have a 2012 Si Sedan as my daily for 5 years now.
@@gigatron2008 last FA5 I had went to 320,000
My current FG2 bought it from long Island and the previous owner had no idea what the shift light was.
FA5 was my first car back in 2011.. i was 18 years old. Color was Galaxy Grey 😍
This is my dream car. An FA5. Attainable dream car. #BrokeBoiProblems
+J Rosenberg Buy one. They're amazing.
Just save up bro. You can find used ones for 15k. You can finance that working at McDonald's.
+J Rosenberg I may be selling mine in a few months. 12k obo
My 3rd one now haha love love this gem
They aren’t too expensive. I bought my FG2 a month ago for $7000 dealer fees included. 86k miles. All original. Clean title.
Had a 2006 si coupe 6spd car! Loved it! It would rev past 8500 rpm! Until I had trans problems! Then had to trade it in.
Good lord it sounds amazing. Maybe it's me, but boosted Honda's always sound good. Never came across one that didn't sound good.
the way people always say hondas are slow is because they try and compare them to cars that were ment for power and not cars that are where ment for fuel economy. for a non sports car its pretty quick for what it is.
Do the brakes hate life?
Rusty Shackleford Do the brakes hate life?
400+ whp, stock brakes? I'm asking after about 5 minutes of hard driving do they still work, or do they hate the extra power, fade and stink.
***** We meet again... impostor
Lol they're tiny 😂
Hello Rustys... again.
I have a turboed 8th gen si as a second car and my wife has a turboed 9th gen si as her second car. Drive a boosted 9th gen si. That extra .4 liters and extra low end torque in the 9th gen makes the car ridiculously torquey compared to the 8th. My 9th gen si has pretty much taught me to become the master of torque steer lol. I love my 8th though. I don't think I'll ever get tired of making it scream to 8500rpm. I used to have it set at 9000 till I blew the motor at the track. Trying to make this motor its last.
Going to look at a 07 si sedan tomorrow :D
Did you get it? Trying to get an fa5 sedan myself
Yes i did, i ended up going home with it the next day. I love everything about it, other than the fact that i have put 8000 miles on it already.
Ttyme1616 is it stock? i have 07 fg2 but my 3rd grinds and sometimes doesnt wanna go in
beanvan99 my second gear does the exact same thing, it's all stock motor
Ttyme1616 yeah i got stock motor as well, i looked up a video about tightening a pushrod for the clutch or something but idk if i did it correctly
I don't like Civics, i dont, but this is a beauty. He drops it the way i do. Love it. Great work.
I love how so many people hate on Honda's. Sure a lot of them are slow, but a lot of them are fast as well. This one in particular is decent. Not too shabby, aesthetically looks decent. Performance-wise not bad, 400hp to the wheels is fairly good, especially if it's probably being daily'ed. Just to have enough to fuck around and smoke some haters lol.
Loved the video! Check out some of my videos as well, I got boosted Honda's and Acura's and more on there!
I have 07 Fa5 with 197k on it and it's still humming along pretty good...good solid fwd car I think it's the best si year
0:31 "I am Gogeta!"
DBZ!!!
I actually really like these years of Si, If I ever get a daily beater, it would def be this or an integra. Make my 5.0 the weekend car
Now review a full bolt-on FG2 like mine ;]
I know this was 5 years ago. But fyi for anyone just watching lol, but the clutch pedal is adjustable. Just gotta adjust the neutral safety switch in or out to adjust where the clutch pedal grabs.
Honda civic: doing pulls on the highway
Axles :I'm about to end this man's whole career lol 😂
Muhammed Q man that shit happened to me 3 times in my Honda 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
I love these civics. Supercharged is the best daily drive combo. Give you that missing bit of torque Hondas are lacking.
if you can get 500 hp outta a supercharged civic that would be a quick as shit little car.
I like it, but idk what Honda was thinking when designing the look of the car, but it definitely looks better than the coupe.
I laughed when you said the torque figures, but to each there own not hating at all, its just nice having even number's like I do in my STI, 470Whp and 510Wtq!
David Mudrik Split between 4 wheels its not as impressive. My GC8 had circa 400HP and around 360lb/tq and my 310HP Type R with around 270lbs/tq would kill it off from around 20mph.
It made the power at all 4 wheels, I wasn't talking about crank HP/TQ
+David Mudrik If the civic it had anymore it would just blow the tires off all the time. And they weigh less then 3000 pounds too. not much TQ needed to get them going.
Obbyb1 Pretty sure thats more impressive. Way more parasitic loss with AWD.
Alexander Lavoie Good point
Amazing baby.
I recently bought a civic exs 2008 blue dark with automatic transmition. I know, it is not the same as the Si, but when you set it on sport mode an use the paddle shifter is amazing how that 1.8l engine i-vtec has that power. it is not a sport car, but it has a very good response, and of course..... that sound!
You need to review a 2001-2003 Acura 3.2 CL TYPE S
I've probably watched this video 10 times, love it.
Any changes in fuel economy? Excluding all the pulls and shenanigans, of course!
never was a honda guy until I drove one of these cars. I want a fa5 so badly!
Kwezzy I know this is a old post but fg2 is the coupe you probably already know but just letting you know have a great day!
hahaha oh man that fa5 has the same squeaky window problem as my fa5
Coming back to what inspired me to get an 8th gen
WEEEEEETEEEEEEK! I was surprised by the lack of supercharger whine tho! I thought there would have been way more!
Kraftwerks superchargers are meant to be quiet
Is it a twin screw supercharger?
UmmmmRamos centrifugal
Guess that's why no whine! Thanks for the info Trevor Davis
+The Dutch Texan I see you everywhere...from here to motovlogs...
the 8th generation of si is my favorite
FG2 is where its at
FA1/FA5 is definitely my dream 1st car. I cannot wait until I save up enough.
that moment when you realize a civic could beat your stock v6 charger
Hate to break it to you but any si from 2006 onward would beat your stock v6 charger.
yea the v6 charger kinda sucks
Doctor Ferdinand trust me I am well aware of how shitty my car is
Lj 88 The v6 Charger isn't a shitty car, atleast not the 2011- present generations. It's just not a performance platform.
But they won't beat a stock V6 mustang from 2011 on lol
I love my 07 SI in stock form, cant wait to pick up a second car for my wife to do this same build kind of build
I have a LX trim and I want my car to look like that and you guys think it's okay ?
Ivan Blanco its your car man, do whatever you want
+DaReal Kingjess25 you have a good point, thank you
+DaReal Kingjess25 well said man.
I have an 08 that looks exactly like an si. People who aren't anti rice like it
Ivan Blanco What you end up doing?
just to let you know you are the only Car review guy i watch i can not stand the other ones plus i like these kinda cars n you give lots of information
crap that's by my house!
Owned a 08 coupe and a 2010 coupe. Love love this gen. Only thing is they are kinda slugish when you want to pass someone you gotta down shift a couple gears then you can do it. But very reliable watch out for 08 and older ones 3rd gear pop out issues
It needs more supercharger whine!
nah bruh
nah bruh
Nah bruh
nah bruh
nah bruh
automatic thumbs up for using misogi's track
I, hereby, dub this civic not rice.
Romgify lmao
So much want! Seriously want a supercharged Civic SI so bad! Great video as always!
kraftwerks is the worse kit you can get for an 8th Gen civic. Fitment issues, lack of low and mid range power and torque. from what I can see from the video is that the owner has a Sunk2 (aka Junk2) exhaust that is notorious for drones. You need to find another civic (same generation) but with a roots type blower! it is a night a day difference between both blowers!
He needs to reviews a 98-2000 civic
+Kenny Chhoeun he has done it, it was a sleeper 4 doors civic '00
Fidel J Or a nice turbo kit like the PRL kit
Look how idiot can be a human "kraftwerks is the worse kit you can get" HAHAHAHA.... Turbo is better? HAHAHAHA
The 8th gen Civic Si is my most favorite generation Civic!
So fucking sad people swap the 3sgte for the k20.
He means mr2 spyder, I prefer 2zz-ge engine though..
Brazsty - GTA V PC MODS yea the 3sgte has potential of its own
he was referring to the later model mr2 with the n/a 1.8 making 140bhp
Brazsty - GTA V PC MODS What's so sad about swapping a newer engine that can hold up more than 500whp on a stock block??
The fact the 3s can hold just as much and has more torque at the same hp
“Do I keep going, do I keep going?” That’s me everyday😂I’m stock but also 16 so fun love my Civvy
Fuck the Honda haters ;)
fuck em
Oh yeah this is the good Si. Love the look so much more than the newer Civic. And that four door body just looks right.
This is why Hondas r the best it's so easy to get power out of them and there still reliable and good on gas so why buy a piece of shit mustang that is unreliable sucks on gas and is heavy as fuck
I had a Fa5 allmotor running 13.6 sec with full boltons an tune with flashpro at the track an not hating either but if I had a mustang 5.0 or a Camaro SS an put the same amount of money into it then it's a different story I would be running 12's with simple boltons an if you wanna add force induction then imagine the outcome ;)
MrHess9298 Because hondas aren't "so easy to get power out of," aren't as reliable as everyone brags, and mustangs aren't nearly as bad as you let off? Did you watch the video he did on his own car (mustang) a week ago?
"Easy to get power." As if all of those mods on that car were simple to install and dirt cheap! Please my man. Nothing is wrong with a mustang. I plan to build myself a 5.0 Foxbody real soon. You only prefer Honda's because you must not be able to afford a weekend/sunny day toy and a daily driver so you had to combine them. And do you have a similar set up or close to same HP and still get over 30mpg? Doubt it.
***** Honestly I had a daydream today that I swapped a 2JZ in a foxbody! Odd.
***** As in Aston Martin DB8????? There is A DB7, DB9 and DBS. Cannot found no DB8 unless you are talking about another car.
fa5 owner here, they are so much for fun!
Recaro child seat at 5:24? #Becauseracecar
Finally I've been looking for a review on this
I see Hondas as the average commuter's car. Not something to be modded. Waste of money in my opinion. Others may think otherwise and that's ok. It's just my opinion :)
ThatGamingMustang Honda's are the car that smoke ur mustang and u can daily drive it too. Thats why honda is the best ;) .
i own a 2008 sedan civic, and i love it! i recently improved brakes and suspension, next this is supercharger plans! Ricers ruined the civic image, but the car itself its a pretty cool car to be your first car, especially in latin countries, where you dont get access to cars like usa or uk...
fa5 supremacy
i really enjoy how he treats the test vehicles.
the Civic days are long gone.
Nice video. I have similar setup in my EM2. It has Superchatged K20 with a 6 speed manual. It started out as a 1.7 liter HX with a CVT.
The reason it has low torque is so it doesn’t spin as much since it’s on the front 2 wheels
Finally an 8th gen SI review
Friend has the same car, black paint. Same mods done by King Motorsports in WI. Makes 390whp and is just a blast!
LMAO I saw the thumbnail and I broke my own rule, never turn a car down Bc of looks. This car sounds amazing I'm not particular about honda but this is nice
Hey David, just wanted to say that I've recently started watching your videos and they're awesome!
Finally an 8th gen! Awesome
FA5 gang
Nothing like a Honda .... Wish they would bring back the s2000 ... Rwd + VTEC is a blast
David, Review a 7th gen Toyota Celica GTS. David please 😩 you'll love the noise of lift kicking in ! DAVID PLEASE !!
Awesome car. My fa5 has a cracked block. And I'm still beating it until it blows lol
If he starts to drive hard,you know there will be a smile
Nice review man.
Bit late, and i doubt you'll read this, but would love to see you compare this to one of the Civics people are building with twin screw/TVS superchargers. A K20 with a TVS 1320 seems to have a comparable output but a different sort of power curve.
I have changed my views on civics after this, supercharged is the way to go awesome vid
I love these civics with the euro/jdm front clips.
Man another top notch review keep on going david u rock
First time seeing a supercharged Honda
so nice. I have been waiting for a fa5 review
great review and clean build! i really like the 8th gen Si's. I think im gonna supercharge my 9th gen next year!!
1:09 is that the evo that lost the lip?
One of my Favorite reviews! Thumbs up as always!
Kraftswerk baby!
This is the nicest sounding car you've reviewed . Imo
