I'm using this as a reference for my 05 civic. I can definitely vouch for the Yonaka exhaust, sounds amazing. I would also suggest you get DC Sports headers (don't know if they make them anymore though) if you have the manual transmission.

we have a very very similar story. my dad surprised me with my 04 civic EX for 200$. my dad is a landscaper and we have happened to live near a college. he was mowing a professors yard. the prof approached my dad and asked him if he wanted 200$ for it bc his daughter had bought a newer car. it has 170k miles on it and it’s never had any problems, and it’s completely stock. first mod i plan on doing is adding a dual exhaust tip
on civics the best value for money mods which you should do first is handling get a suspension upgrade, wider and stickier tires+wheels next up should be a sport exhaust but atleast a sport muffler (get a resonator if you opt for a straight through fart pipe)
....right?! "Just look at all this restrictive factory piping, that might actually allow a small bit of fresh outside air to make it into the engine...."
And 2.5 inch exhaust which will dump any hopes of power on a stock 1.7. 1"3/4 or 2'' max on an engine that small. Its Instagram car people mods. Its hopes and dreams for people that dont know any better.

Idk Dorman makes plenty of products that fix known issues on the oem parts. And their LS truck intake is nearly a direct copy of the fast intake with a 3 bolt throttle body flange instead of the 4 bolt on the fast.
I’m a big fan of these types of builds. Reminds me when Chris Fix’s neighbor gave him a civic with a timing issue and he fixed it. Can’t wait for part 2!
Except that car had a real issue. This neighbor was scrapping a relatively low-mileage Honda for an exhaust leak? I paid $800 for a 2002 Civic LX coupe with 250,000 miles and a blown head gasket! Who scraps running cars?!
Doesn’t the ECU on the 7th gen civic pretty much just kill any bolt on you add tho? Also is the placement of the CAI in a bad location where you guys put it? Does it still draw in cold air I mean.
Being from Mexico, it amazes me how things loses their value a lot more on richer countries because it's easier for people to just buy a new one. Here in Mexico getting a car for that price would never happen.
@@blakeschmid Well for some reason mines lasted to 300k and sold it, leaky transmission and all , but i had a JDM model dunno if that made a difference non-USA guy here. And had a ton of eks as well but moded all of those also great car

Free rev is different than under load and it will get louder once it's used for a bit. Still 499 is a rip. I got a yonaka for 249 for a 5th gen civic coupe. Dude got ripped on the price.

Because its a 2004 base civic and the video is called quick and easy build? If you just want WOOOOMP noises then who cares? It's an auto D-Series it's not like it's going anywhere fast.
I strongly disagree... I've seen cars loose 30HP over 150-160 total due to short air intake in the engine bay. If you just want the noise and the kit you bought doesn't fit just make it a bit longer and put the intake outside the bay. You can make stuff cheap AND right, you just have to put a bit of care into it.
@@DarkMat90 you're missing the premise that its a car that was about to go to the scrapyard a few days ago. When you build your civic then you can do whatever you want with it, but these stupid "no you're doing it wrong waaahh" comments are why the car community is so looked down upon.
@@yofutofu I'm sorry but I don't get it... It's not about doing stuff wrong, it's just that I don't understand why embrace doing stuff that is not worth your time and money on a budget build that can be awesome and so releatable to many people, no matter the theme choosen. You and me, we can do whatever we want on our on, but when you do it on a TH-cam video you're giving a message. I disagree on that message, that's it. And I care to say I disagree because 10 years ago a youtube channel (mighty car mods) made me understand that I wanted to build a career around cars and I graduated in automotive engineering... So, when you give a public message you never know who's listening!
Love the mod my ride series! It's nice to see a lightly modded car and the unexpectedly large impact it has. Its something I can grasp and feel like something I could achieve too. Hearing the $ tally was also really cool for the same reasons.

And that little single cam was quick that's the best thing you can do to these generations minus doing a kswap
Yonaka is a go to budget/subtle Honda system. I had one on my old integra and it was subtle and hardly noticeable in most situations.
I loved this video! Thanks so much for putting it together... I really enjoy watching these budget car builds.
Im from Ontario and I love how your explanations are simple and more engaging rather than 20 minutes on a certain part
Auto? Should’ve found a stick
Im loving every second of this because im in canada and i have that exact car! But in manual.
If only this was done on an em1
Speed academy?
I see what you did there.....
*chuckling*
Why in the world someone would have the air filter in the engine bay with no feed from outside in 2020... It was way better to keep the OEM aribox...
Because its a 2004 base civic and the video is called quick and easy build? If you just want WOOOOMP noises then who cares? It's an auto D-Series it's not like it's going anywhere fast.
@@yofutofu This. You're not going to have noticable gains either way so who cares. Noise is the only benefit here
I strongly disagree... I've seen cars loose 30HP over 150-160 total due to short air intake in the engine bay. If you just want the noise and the kit you bought doesn't fit just make it a bit longer and put the intake outside the bay. You can make stuff cheap AND right, you just have to put a bit of care into it.
@@DarkMat90 you're missing the premise that its a car that was about to go to the scrapyard a few days ago. When you build your civic then you can do whatever you want with it, but these stupid "no you're doing it wrong waaahh" comments are why the car community is so looked down upon.
@@yofutofu I'm sorry but I don't get it... It's not about doing stuff wrong, it's just that I don't understand why embrace doing stuff that is not worth your time and money on a budget build that can be awesome and so releatable to many people, no matter the theme choosen.
You and me, we can do whatever we want on our on, but when you do it on a TH-cam video you're giving a message. I disagree on that message, that's it.
And I care to say I disagree because 10 years ago a youtube channel (mighty car mods) made me understand that I wanted to build a career around cars and I graduated in automotive engineering...
So, when you give a public message you never know who's listening!
I cant even find a decent roller for under $1000
love the budget builds. long live SA
South Africa?
South America!
one of my friends was able to do a k swap 5 lug integra like civic and it was awesome to see from a bland civic
Lovin this kind of series! Please keep up the good work. Might wanna see these kinds of builds on the track, man.
This dudes voice sounds like mandark
Love these types of builds please keep them coming
They really put a hot air intake on the car😐
Love the mod my ride series! It's nice to see a lightly modded car and the unexpectedly large impact it has. Its something I can grasp and feel like something I could achieve too. Hearing the $ tally was also really cool for the same reasons.
Bolt can't be stuck if it's a liquid
Manual transmission swap needed( ebay makes a complete swap kit)?
