How much is a tune for a Honda Civic Sport?
My sister sold me her Honda Civic for a great price. But now I’d like to modify it, beginning with getting more horsepower out of the engine. How much is a tune for a Honda Civic Sport?
Rachel Rigolino · Updated on
Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
You’ll pay between $100–$175/hr for a professional, Stage 1 tune for your
Honda Civic Sport
, and the process will take between 2-4 hours. The mechanic will use a dynamometer (or dyno) to modify your Civic’s stock computer settings to enhance the engine’s performance.
If you elect to follow up on Stage 1 tuning, your mechanic will modify your Civic’s air intake system and/or your exhaust in Stage 2 and perhaps make other tweaks as well.
Important caution: Tuning your car will likely void its warranty, so be sure to check the fine print if your vehicle is still covered under a warranty!
Tuning your Honda Civic can wind up taking more time (and money) than you planned. The first thing you should do is decide what your goals are. Then, you’ll want to consult with your mechanic to look at the costs of achieving these goals.
If you’re looking to save up some money for car modifications, begin by doing some comparison shopping for affordable
