For me it's not about the time it takes to hit the Individual button, it's about me occasionally forgetting to hit it. I hate stopping at a light or stop sign and having the engine suddenly shut off due to idle stop not being deactivated. The short install has been totally worth it for me to...

There is a module you can buy from Idlestopper and install that will do it, but in the car's stock form, no. I've got the module and it's great. Install was easy and they have instructions on YouTube.

The Proclip mount and Proclip base is a very good combo. That's what's in my pictures on the first page of this topic. I use a Pixel 6 in mine, it's flawless. A 12-18 inch cable for checking will let you use wireless Android Auto all day long, though I've started just using wired Android Auto...

Bought 7/3/22, filled my gas tank at 29,498 last night.

I wrapped my piano black center console cover in matte black vinyl. If anyone is considering doing a wrap, here's what a nice matte black looks like: This was my first attempt at wrapping and was easier than I thought it would be. I highly recommend going for it if you're thinking about it.

I've had a rear facing car seat in the Integra for 10 months now and there's plenty of space for it, more than in the TLX. The TLX felt cramped with the same seat. The only problem the Integra has with a rear facing car seat is the low fast back roof profile, which makes getting a baby in...

I've had 2 TLXs as loaner cars and both my wife and I agree that they feel noticeable more cramped inside compared to the Integra. The TLX interior uses space very inefficiently in my opinion.

I use my phone and the Torque Pro app to view boost.

I just did my 6th oil change at just under 25,000 miles. I did the first at 1,000 miles, with subsequent changes every multiple of 5k miles after that. I'm using Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy or Pennzoil Platinum and either a Mobil 1, Wix, or Honda/Acura oil filter. The filters were all about...

That looks perfect!

Does anyone worry about the big gaps between the sides of the hood and the tops of the front fenders? I feel like there should be some kind of barrier there and worry about what could go straight into the engine bay.

I see similar amounts of water in the door sills of my A-Spec. I'm blown away even more so by how much dust gets into the for sill area and in around the gas cap. I've never seen anything like it! Just driving an ordinary day through farm country does it. It makes it hard to keep the car...

Proclip is surprisingly expensive. I finally decided that it's worth it to never have to worry about phone mounts again! I've got 20,000 miles with the Proclip in this Integra, including hard back road driving and big unexpected road bumps and have had no problems at all. I hope you end up...

I've owned a turbocharged Focus ST, 2 turbocharged WRXs, my wife's turbocharged Lexus NX, and my current A-Spec turbocharged Integra, and I've never heard the sound described above. The issue in general may be endemic to turbo cars, but it sounds to me like Honda did a bad job addressing it...

I ordered a Proclip mount for a '22 Civic Si last August and it's been perfect. I highly recommend it. I had one in my prior WRX, and my wife uses one in her Lexus and they've always been flawless, have never come loose or fallen or even needed readjustment after installation. The mount is...

I'm reasonably sure that the car will not start in Individual mode under OEM settings because of the EPA's CAFE rules. It's the same reason that Honda is forced to recommend 0W-20 oil only, and state that other weights are not allowed outside of emergency conditions. If they want to get the...

You can get to the blend door actuator mechanisms with a little work. Removing the lower driver side trim and knee airbag gets you in on that side, while removing the glove box and lower dash trim gets you there on the passenger side. My car had a lot of play in those mechanisms when I...

I had really, really bad rattles in both adjusters. They are actually what got me started on this whole journey. That Civic video is an excellent starting point for fixing the adjusters, but it wasn't enough in my case. Beware, in the video he reinstalls the one time use connectors...

I'm glad it worked!

Those were all loose for me, especially that yellow one. I didn't bother looking up what each connected to though. To fix all of these, I unplugged all of the connectors, added electrical tape to the flat sides of the male end of each connector as a shim, and plugged them back in. Usually one...
