RE: just bought a 05 gt !
exhuast in my opinion should be the last upgrade you do the stock one flows good already. You will see 10hp max from exhaust and xpipe. Like you said you go to the track every week so ur mods should be track oriented. 1. C&L + sct package from ba ma ch ips.com (the reason why not to go with brenspeed is that doug will actually update your tunes for free, go with brenspeed if your ok paying 75$ for a retune everytime you buy a part), then get 4.10's they will hurt ur top end but since you go to the track thats where the most improvement is. 3. Get adjustable lcas if you plan on lowering your car if not just get fixed ones. 4. Short shifter and then you go into headers/pullies etc. The ccmv are a good mod but you cant get them anymore for 89$.

RE: just bought a 05 gt !
LOL; SI civic...Tell him to get out of here w/ that thing! fwd 136tq/197hp vs rwd 320tq/300hp....hmm; let me think about this one.
I have a buddy w/ a 06 si; i drove it. Its a fun little car; since i never driven a "vtec" car before; its kinda fun. But let me tell you something; the time that thing hits vtec; your tq all ready kick in and you got plenty of hp to back up ur tq. I all ready SMOKED his little si down low. However he does think he can "keep up w/ me past 70..." lol; i dont think so.
when i say your going to SMOKE HIM, its not going to be funny...well, atleast not for him.
