The transmission gets smoother with use. I've got about 1600 on mine now, and the transmission feels a lot better than it did new -- still plenty of gate feedback, but it isn't nearly as "crunchy", if that makes sense, and it's really easy to flick it into gear now.

Still keeping an eye open for the Acuity rocker arm (hopefully they release it soon). I'd prefer a shorter throw.

My car had 5 miles on the paper and 21 when I got it. I was told the tech may have taken a "slightly longer drive" while checking to make sure everything worked as expected. ...yeah -- wasn't happy.
Hm I thought it was just me. Just hit 903 miles and it’s felt like shifting gears felt smoother or easier. The shifting on this car has been amazing, is Acuity really a big upgrade?

How big of a tune are you going for? Future down pipe and a new RV6 turbo as well? I don’t have much experience with mods and am hesitant to break anything in the ITS. Really aiming for longevity and safe upgrades only

I don't think one can say objectively whether or not the rocker arms are an upgrade. In some ways, they are, as they have a more rigid overall construction (aluminum over plastic) and a tighter securing mechanism that reduces play / tolerances. Most significantly, their rocker arms reduce throw distance. Having said that, whether or not you consider that an upgrade is highly subjective and depends on what you're looking for.

They haven't released their rocker arm for the 11th gen yet, so I can't comment on it. But, in general, I'm used to a shorter throw than this car comes with stock, and I'd like to reduce it.

Shorter throws are a personal preference I’m assuming? ITS already does feel like it has short and crisp throws. Does acuity have a different “feel” to it? I like the notch feeling in each gear, as long as it doesn’t eliminate that I may consider an upgrade

Theoretically, the rocker arm will reduce both lateral play and vertical throw. Gate feel should not be impacted.

Already installed DP,FP, intercooler.
Looking at a 93 tune to start. Then maybe 4piston cams, RV6 Turbo, and fuel system upgrade

Fresh ceramic tint 70%vlt done today! I wanted to do the front windshield too but they didn't have the light film I wanted in stock. Oh wells, might go with the oem acura sunshade for the time being.

How does the DP and FP work with the active exhausts system and how does it sound compared to the CTR?

I'm sure of that but overall they did a better job of sound with the intergra then the CTR so I'm curious does it still engage the active part when you go through the different modes? And since the pops and bangs seem to be tuned in I wonder how the ECU changes will impact that as well? 🤔

Since the active valve is located near the back of the exhaust, it should not change. The amount of sound increase a DP has over stock depends on the cat used or if includes one at all. On the FL5 a catted DP like the two step along with a PRL FP nets a minimal change.

all those look intriguing, would they Retain ITS as a useable daily driver? Seems like you’ll be pushing past 400hp at least.

I can’t get 93 octane in my state, only option is to mix E85 with 91 octane to get 93-96. Not sure if that’s safe to do with a stock ITS
