Well it serves a specific purpose. They did a lot of testing and development with this platform. This is an excellent platform out the box. Very tunable with being able to keep the internals stock. With bolt on and supporting mods you can big hp numbers easily. About the only you might want do...

It's completely normal. I have the exact same sound. It vibrates under certain frequencies. The wastegate arm is a little loose on purpose so it can move freely without damaging the electronic wastegate if it was too stiff it would damage it. It can be annoying. It seems to happen more often...

The Type R's never had a sunroof. I don't understand why people expect this. This is a true sports car. Build for handling. This is one of the best handling cars on the road for a FWD vehicle. Why compromise performance?

The reason piggybacks get a bad reputation is because people with no experience with tuning are doing it themselves. So the results aren't as reliable. They're not setting them up properly and run too much boost and don't program the safeguards in. With high quality tuners they have to be...

I definitely understand this point. I have a 2000 honda civic ek making 800whp on hondata and it revs out to 9600rpm. I like being able to rev to the moon. But it's fully built. I don't know if I would open up the k20C. Honda did a great job designing this platform. I might do it after it's paid...

You could always go the piggyback route. Keep it conservative and your less likely to void your warranty. People have differing opinions on them. But they can be removed without making permanent changes to the car. And if you buy a high quality one that has a literal proven track record with...

You cannot hide ECU Reflashes. Everything has a digital footprint these days. Even some piggyback's you can't hide. Depends on how well made it is and how it communicates with the ecu and interprets the signals sent. But they cannot void a warranty even on a Reflash/Tune unless they can prove...

IIRC I remember reading on a forum thread I believe on CivicX. Things have changed in the last 2 years. Tuning has improved immensely. I believe it was there shop car they were referring to and I believe it was the FL5. The FL5/DE5 platforms are better than the FK8. They have more fueling...

Prl is actually making around 500whp without fuel upgrades. People are finally learning how these ecu's operate logically. And the tuning has gotten better by a factor of 10. Now that the platform has been out for like 7-8 years support is finally catching up to a degree that tuning has become...

I get your point. However why would dream automotive leave it installed on their shop car if it lost power? They're a very notable performance shop in the UK. With all the exceptional air flow this new platform has I really don't think it will lose power. Maybe not make power. I think it will be...

Just buy an intake and you'll get all the sound you could ask for. Dream Automotive has an intake out that will get your desired effect. If you change the diverter valve it'll give you a little bit more sound too.

This right here is accurate information. I'm a mechanic and can CONFIRM this is TRUE AND ACCURATE! Please listen to this information. If you want to run a BOV(vent to atmosphere) you have to tune for Speed Density which means using stand alone engine management like the MOTEC. Unless you're...

Man I love this thing. It's so responsive and you can really feel the power it has. So usable! Absolutely in love with this beautiful machine!

Yeah did some research and figured that out based on responses here. But I was told there is a way to disable it by doing some twinkle toes dance. Going to look into it more later. But at least it's supposed to be a feature and not a malfunction. Just completely took me by surprise. My FK8 never...

Posting in this forum for one thing lol. Planning out my day for another. And being a little bored. Just enjoying my car mainly.

Has anyone experienced this? It literally shut itself off. Is this a normal feature?

It tool my a couple of days to adjust to its size. Still gauging how much I need to make turns and such. The ITR felt smaller and easier to maneuver. Not a complaint just an observation and adjustment. Car has tons of room in it which I love. This is definitely a sports car and not a family...

Any cons to using this product in order to get more sound from the turbo? I know technically you're not supposed to use a Vent to Atmosphere BOV because of the MAF. But this valve is identical to stock but is tight and made with better parts and has a piston inside it instead of a bunch of...

Yeah I'm curious about this too. It makes no sense not to leave it in the last mode selected. I only drive in sport+.
