Our impressions:
Civic lovers, read the following carefully. If you own a
civic you know how great they are for tuning. Straight from
the factory you can make some minor changes to create some
major power increases. In this test, we tried out an STchiptuning
chip. This little box hooked up
next to the factory computer, took about fifteen minutes to
install, and we were on our way to the dyno.
It didn't take long to notice the improvements of this
simple upgrade. Acceleration had experienced an obvious
jump, and throttle response felt like we'd just added a full
cat back exhaust. The Civic can
still feel a bit sluggish sometimes and this modification
brought this vehicle to life. Wheel spin was a bit more
difficult to avoid so a bit more attention was needed to
keep the tires stuck to the road. Acceleration, top speed,
and above all driving pleasure are all greatly increased.
Our dyno testing confirmed what we had felt.
In terms of pure power, our dyno testing provided some
noticeable gains. The power had increased by 19 horsepower,
and the torque increased by 16 foot pounds. The increase in
performance was certainly worth it, an for the price we paid
(about forty dollars shipped at the time of this writing), it
was probably the best automotive value we've experienced in
quite awhile.
