so, I’ve been tinkering with my r18 civic lately, and man, bolt-on parts can really make a difference. I threw on a cold air intake and a cat-back exhaust, and wow, it felt like I was driving a different car. But honestly, the actual horsepower gain? Maybe around 10-20 hp total, if you’re lucky.
I’ve heard some people claim they get more with tuning, but I’m not that deep into it yet. You know any good mods for a daily, though? Like, I wanna keep things chill. And don’t forget, every little bit helps, right? It’s like adding hot sauce to your tacos.
I ve had my r18 civic for a while now and bolting on some parts really woke it up
I’ve seen gains like 20-30 hp easy in the right config
I’ve tinkered with my R18 in Michigan and slapped on a cold air intake and a cat-back exhaust. Cranked out about 15 hp more after a tune. Feels like night and day. Friends said bolt-ons are a waste but they just don’t get it. More fun for sure.
Gotta love the sound of it too.
I’ve heard folks claim around 15 to 30 hp with bolt ons on r18 civics. My buddy in California did it with a cold air intake and exhaust. Felt more punchy in the hills for sure. Can’t wait to try it.
I ve got an R18 in Calgary and after some bolt ons I saw a nice bump up in horsepower. Definitely noticeable on the highway. I really recommend a good intake and exhaust combo. Makes a world of difference. The thrill is real.
I had a friend with an R18 Civic in Toronto he swapped out the intake and exhaust and felt maybe 15-20 hp gain. Not huge but noticeable when you punch it.
I ve seen some claim crazy numbers with tunes and bolt-ons but it’s hard to trust those. Sometimes it feels more about the sound than the speed tho.
I ve got an R18 and after some basic bolt-ons like intake and exhaust I felt a solid boost probably around 15-20 hp. Not earth shattering but makes driving way more fun in Canada.
I’ve seen some pretty wild gains with bolt-ons on my r18 in Texas like 20-30 hp with the right mods it really wakes up the engine not to mention the sound upgrade is cool too
heyy so I’ve got a R18 Civic and I’ve been thinking about getting some bolt on parts for a while I added a cold air intake and a catback exhaust and can feel a difference like I’m in Toronto and there’s hills everywhere I’ve noticed more pickup going up them its not crazy but it’s nice sometimes it feels like I’m driving a different car but the gains aren’t immense it’s all about the little things right
so I had a 2018 R18 Civic in California and man I threw some bolt-ons on it like intake and exhaust. I ve heard people getting like 15 to 20 hp some even claimed more. But honestly with tuning you can see better gains. I didn’t go crazy just wanted a bit more fun. It made a decent difference on the road.
I ve had my R18 Civic for a while now and slapped on some bolt-ons and honestly its a blast. I gained like 15-20 hp maybe just enough to feel it.
Ddo wish I could squeeze more but hey it’s still fun.
I ve heard some guys get up to 30 hp with a good intake and exhaust but honestly that’s pushing it a bit
In my buddy’s r18 here in Cali we saw about 20 hp after some bolt-ons and a tune not too shabby
I ve got an 18 Civic and honestly bolt ons have given me decent gains. I added a cold air intake and a cat back exhaust last summer while cruising around Southern California.
Felt like I got about 20-25 hp increase which isn’t earth shattering but it makes the car a bit more fun to drive. Just gotta make sure you tune it right.
I’ve heard folks getting around 15 to 30 hp with bolt ons on their R18s. In Texas I did a simple intake and exhaust and it felt quicker but hard to tell exact numbers. Sometimes its more about the sound tho.
Had an r18 civic in Texas and bolted on some parts. I ve seen around 20 to 30 hp gains with a cold air intake and headers. Makes the drive way more fun and the sound is just awesome.
I ve had my r18 civic in Toronto for a year now and decided to slap on a cold air intake and a catback exhaust. Honestly like it feels peppier but not like a night and day difference youd expect.
Maybe I got too hyped on the numbers but it’s more about the fun of modding. I’d say I’m feeling like 10-15 whp tops but still lovin the sound.
I remember when I bolted on a simple cold air intake to my R18 in Toronto and could feel the difference right away. Got like 10 hp max but I was hyped.
Honestly I think bolt ons are a great way to squeeze a bit more power without going overboard. Might not be a ton but every little bit counts right?
