Mine is just super light (for a 5th gen) with how the previous owner ordered it.
Yours probably has more miles than mine too. 12,000 miles when I bought it. Still has the new car smell in it.

Yup right around 47k on it. I got it with 41K a year ago. Can you tell I don't really drive it?

I did have it out over the weekend, the supercharger loves this spring air.

I love the little pop the exhaust makes when you start it up. I also use the remote start more than I use the ignition because I love hearing the exhaust. lol

Just as long as you don't sell this one.

Are you going to any events this year?

Other than local events probably not.

And I'll keep this one. It's already paid off.

I just simply chopped off the mufflers and added a little straight pipe and had the tips cut off and welded back on. Made more pops. I loved it. was like $80 total.

The local muffler shop said they could chop my mufflers off on Tuesday.

How does is sound and how is the drone?

louder, deeper sound, but not obnoxious. It was really one of my favorite mods. especially for the price. while driving and taking your foot off the gas, you get some little pops. Jewel wasn't a fan, but I loved it. I never noticed any more drone than normal.

Vitesse throttle controller is also another great mod for the price. I think it's like $180. You will feel a huge difference in throttle. Very fun mod!

We still have one on Jewel

Oh, and maybe invest in a catch can. I had Elite engineering catch can on mine. I think that's what's on Jewel as well.

After using plastidip on 2 sets of wheels, I would definitely NOT recommend.

I would only use it on the bowties, and maybe the taillight bezels.

I know the axle-back on my Civic droned like no other. That's why I'm a little hesitant. Especially since I'm driving to Florida and back. Hoping to put a real exhaust on it with my tax return.

I've heard that a catch can is a must have.

And I'm definitely not putting plastidip on my wheels. Probably gonna invest in some 1LE wheels.
