Civic X 1.5L Turbo: Ownership Experience

[hamza_xeg]

I'm sure once I'm done with things I have in mind ....... the car will continue to look decent ....... as I am going for only those parts that are offered as optional accessories by Honda itself ........ in USA, Australia, or Thailand

You are headed in the right direction. Good luck!

Dear please shed some light on the mileage as well. I have heard turbo is giving a mileage of roughly 8 kmpl per liter and no one is buying turbo. The cars I have seen on road have 1:10 ratio of turbo vs non-turbo.

Why is everyone shy of buying a turbo.

Congrats on purchase, looking great

I cannot comment on mileage as yet........not done enough on this car yet.......I hope it will be good as my older 9th gen normally averages 11 KPL in Islamabad........

The reason why you see lesser number of Turbo-version on road is perhaps availability........its only in October that Atlas has started delivery for bulk of pending orders for Turbo.............I'm sure you'll see lot many in coming days..........

Kindly share paint and installation charges.
Nice job by honda centre. Did they use 3M adhesive tape? Or did the kit come with it?

Honda Center charged me Rs. 30K for paint job and installation...........they used the tape on their own as the kit didn't had it.........

I got the kit from Shahid Autos in F-10 Islamabad........and went to Honda Center after assessing that the concerned shop was lacking expertise in installation and fitting.........and they cared the least........

As against that Honda Center was quite impressive.........

Ouch thats pretty steep. Got a quote from dewan (bmw) for 9th gen kit repaint. They are asking 16k including fitting.

I've only done some 700KMs on this car ......... therefore cannot give a firm figure as yet ......... but the first tank gave me around 11.8 KPL in Islamabad with AC ............. this is close to what I get with my 9th gen as well ..........

Well........it's really a satisfying experience (that is if you accept some limitations first)........I am particularly happy with the acceleration from around 70kmh and onwards..........overtaking so easy and at free will........I drove it on Motorway and GT Road.........on city roads and in suburbs where roads were not that good........everywhere it is much better than 9th gen Civic and yes from aged 8th gen as well.......

Since I have been driving a Grande 1.8L for five months..........it was obvious that I would compare the two as well........now I do think that Grande still has somewhat better suspension on bumpy roads but Civic is more grippy and obviously with better acceleration.......

I'm going ahead with some changes / mods but have not thought about changing the rims..........don't want to impact the suspension until I know the new car well.............may be at some point in time...........

[DRIFTK1NG]

Mashallah! Congrats on the purchase. Lunar suits this car as it was made for it, the best colour in Civic X.

[r.jay.s]

Sharing the modifications I've done with my car...........there are quite a few and I will share as and when I complete these / find time............

Nevertheless I've tried to keep the changes as subtle and simple as possible.......

I thought after mods ......... my car deserved the "Modulo" badge........so I added one.....

[SherDil]

Ma'Sha'Allah very nice car and mods! Please share the price of bodykit and the list of pieces it has, thanks.
