As mentioned above, drone is subjective. My Apexi exhaust matched with TSP down pipe and PRL front pipe is fairly conservative when comparing to something like AWE.
Maintaining the valve is a good way to reduce most of the drone, but I still get some drone near 3k on the highway in Comfort...
As @optronix and @Victorofhavoc have mentioned, most owners will not consistently reach the limits of the OEM hardware. It’s best to upgrade when you identify a “crutch” in the system. Otherwise you’re just wasting your money for parts you’ll never see the full potential of.

You will not void your warranty for a catback exhaust. A DP and tune would guarantee the opposite unless your dealer is flexible and typically deals with modified cars.

That being said, the pops and bangs remain unchanged so if that's the driving factor for selling then it could be easily mitigated with a new...
Unlikely given that aftermarket head unit does not provide much benefit over the OEM version. The base 11th gen Civic is lacking in comparison to the Type S version.
The from jack point is not accessible without a long reach jack which is hassle to lug around for track days. Most bring lightweight aluminum jacks due to the space savings and weight.
That being said, the solution is to bring something like race ramps or pieces of wood to get the elevation you...
I have the same exhaust with TSP downpipes and PRL frontpipe. It does drone a little between 2.5-3k in comfort but turning on some music can drown it out.
To me, it's the best sounding combination for this engine. There is a completely different tone that I don't feel other exhaust share; less...
Completed my recall today. Total time was about 2 hours total but the service manager explained the techs had more issues getting my car on the lift than performing the service...
