Turbo Upgrade Sneak Peek

VitViper said:

Why would it be 220? Torque breaks things, not "hpt". 220hp is roughly 190tq... that's less than what we're already doing on the CVT (CVT is seeing 220-230tq with just tuning reliably -- it's all mid range though). Make the same 230tq @ 6000 rpm instead of 3000 rpm and you have 260hp... and a much faster car. Magic!

You know a good hotel out your way??? Probably goin to take a trip to the west coast and have you install this... Never been to Oregon, BUCKET LIST!!!! Check!!! LOL

So, for a turbo CVT with a turbo and any other upgrades tuned for 260hp and 220lb-ft...
What kind of 0-60 might one expect?

@VitViper - seeing as how you're on the west coast, do you have an east coast office or partners (particularly in the mid-Atlantic) that would be a recommended go-to for a future turbo upgrade and tune?

If you've never been to Oregon you better go to the coast and ride the dunes while you're there. They rent stuff but I have no idea what they cost. You'll be glad you threw that in on the list if you do it.

I am in. I have already added Hondata FlashPro and the Injen to my Hatch. Several things on the way as well.

Hello. Just curious: I'm fairly new to doing any type of upgrades--got a 17 sport..I completed the outside look of it, but truthfully the only thing I'm interested in is the Sound..I don't really drive fast per se, but I do want the center exhaust to sound the way it looks(badass--which was the 1st thing I noticed when shopping the car)-
Thanks again--greetings from Maryland

That's how they make em..Hatchback has a different size fuel door...so I'll wait until the correct fit comes along...until then...I'll enjoy the comments

Good to hear its gonna be simple! Long as some basic directions and torque specs are provided! Glad to hear i wont need to pay someone to install..

@VitViper on the same area of needing to know things.. As im sure you will provide directions and things like torque specs.. I have a few questions if you would entertain them for me

1)how important will it be to have a tune right away on it?
2)Will it run fine without a tune?
3)Should i be ready to have the cash for ktuner or hondata immediately when i canpurchase the turbo upgrade?
4)will you be offering a free new baseline tune for people that purchase your final product?(all these ?? Are based on my current predicament and i def will be buying a flashing device and your upgrade,however i have to put it in my budget and do things right.)

Thank you again for all your commitment and activity on here.

P.S. i do plan on getting a custom tune from you in the future.. But again with budgeting. Paying for your upgrade, paying for a tuning device, and finally paying for a custom tune is gonna add up and need to space them apart time wise to make it happen.. And I will say right now.. That buying things and letting them sit in my garage while i save up for the next item needed and then the last item needed before putting all of it in my vehicle... Ugh.. Its bad! Like come on christmas... The. I go borrow cash from somewere to get it all done! Lol

Oh ya.. And that new clutch im gonna need... Bleh!!!

It's offical!!! Team KTuner!!! V1 here I come!!

v2s around the corner?

ok, well first I wouldn't run one that didn't fit just because I couldn't yet get one that did (If I would run one anyways), and second that thing is hideous IMO... sorry man I usually let other peoples tastes be, but this time... lol
