Default Oh God, I feel dirty all over. New here, in many ways.

Well Hi guys,
I just recently converted to the dark side as of yesterday.

I have been a mustang guy my whole life (29) and I just traded in my cherry 2006 Mustang GT for a 2009 Honda Civic Si Alabaster Silver.

I have had 6 mustangs and have no clue about these cars.

All I know is I took the entrance to my neighborhood (no houses or people for awhile) at
40 mph and it had no issues! I love this car! I love the way it rides nice and quite, the interior, my ipod hook up, and its "peppy"

N E ways, I don't plan on doing much to this car but was curious about a cold air intake. I understand there are 2 that are tunable? Does that mean like a hand held tuner like my mustang or like I have to dyno after....I am Lost here guys.

I need a intro to Honda performance.

Yeah, Something's definitely wrong with you... If I had that car there would be NO way I would sell it for a Honda, unless it was an NSX. Don't get me wrong I love my Civic, but a mint, built Firebird > 98% of Hondas any day.

To the OP: Welcome to the forum! Very nice trade! It must be nice to get good gas mileage, be quick, and actually have handling now right?
