Glad to see that you're excited! We are definitely hoping to get in on the game as early as possible to provide the 10th gen community with quality parts!

Hopefully one of the items developed will be an oil catch can between the crankcase and intake. Yes, direct injection makes ~10% more power than port, but no without a caveat. :|

That's great feedback, thank you! I'll be sure to pass this along to my project managers, we have some neat projects planned for this car!

Well we have some ideas floating around, but we don't really want to finalize what we are going to do first before we get the car into our R&D department. No spoilers!

Oh that's too bad, but thanks for the consideration!

Not yet, we're still on the hunt. Hopefully we find one soon!

My fellow Civic drivers! We are still on the prowl for a new 2016 Civic 1.5L T!! Finding one is proving to be harder said than done, but with a little help, either you or someone you know that has this awesome new Civic can help us get some new products on the market.

We already know the things we plan to begin with development, so we'll only need the car for a week. Please contact us if you think you can help us get a new FC1 in our garage!

That is quite surprising since by now I was expecting at least one person to step up to the offer. But that might have to do with the fact enthusiasts aren't going to jump at owning one of these right away, not with the speed they would in owning a Civic Si. Posting in the Facebook page for this forum might help

I sure would help you guys out, but i live too far i wouldn't mind having a few nice upgrades myself!

I just bought mine about two an a half weeks ago, I personally think its a great car! I would love to add some nice looking aftermarkets.
