Hello, I am answering my own questions here. 98RON and 93PON is similar but not identical, most tuners seems to report that they can go a bit more aggressive with ignition and make more power on 98RON vs 93PON. But this probably makes it safe to run a 93 tune with 98 fuel like i am doing...

I installed my FlashPro today and performed the remote jailbreak on my 2018 european FK8. It went quite smooth, but one of the problems that I see is that all maps available are for US cars, and they most likely do not come with the same calibration because of slightly different fuel. They alos...

I have had a 2018 eurospec fk8 for a bit more than a year now, here are my main concerns: 1. The sound it makes is really boring. It doesn’t matter if you change the exhaust it just makes it louder, but the sound itself is still bad. 2. Front window is super sensitive to damage, need to...

Hondata, I have a question for you guys. I have just purchased Flashpro for my european FK8 and when it arrives I will order the remote jail-brake also. I have started to look into the 93 map that from what I understand should be the best match for me using 98 octane RON. I friendly forum...

I was looking at the above 93 map dyno from hondata, on their dyno sheet they reach 546Nm at 3000rpm, but the target is actually 480Nm as Adam has shown. in my opinion this is quite poor tuning and the high numbers is a cause of the controller overshooting its target heavily. Corrected for the...

Thanks for the screenshots, Very informative! But both the base map and the 93 map have some quite unrealistic torque requests, there is no way they can be reached. (Like 370hp stock!?) I guess there will be other tables that limit the power such as boost etc, but is this a good way of tuning...

If you look on the stock dyno sheet on the hondata webpage it seems like the engine torque level is approx 325lbft. This corresponds to about 440Nm, meaning about 40Nm more than what Honda claims for the stock engine. Someone that has Hondata flashpro, could you check what the stock map has as...

Great, thanks for your replies! :)

I am thinking about buying hondata for my European fk8. Are there specific pre-made maps for 98 octane RON fuel or should I use the ones made for 93 octane PON?

Spraying the intercooler will maybe keep max power a bit longer but will most likely not help that much with the engine overheating issue. The best is probably to have a oil cooler that is then water-sprayed, this would have a good effect because a lot of water is vaporized due to the high inlet...

I Agree, search my post history and I have described a similar system that would use the existing rear washer pump. I have not had time to build it yet, maybe during the winter!

I tried to rebuild a stock cap but Did not succeed. Anyone seen something out there that could work for our cars?

In my experience, all calipers will suffer from damage on the dust boots after some hard track use. You can probably get them to last longer by taking cool down laps every 6-8min, and additional brake cooling will also help. My m3e46 with stock brakes, dust boots was damaged after one track...

Someone before me in this thread was thinking in the same direction as me, why don’t we just implement water spray cooling? From my experience talking to the local tuners here in Sweden, they claim that side mounted oil cooler helps a lot for the cooling issues. Now, outgoing oil temp is...

So, I understand that oem fuel pump is maxed out around 400hp on the crank. This sucks a bit and we should really find a way to get more power without adding secondary injectors. The latest VAG engine ea888 (the “k20” from VAG) found in s3:s, golf R:s etc will make 500hp on stock internals and...

It would be interesting to see what time sport-auto will set with this car, they managed close to 8min flat with both the fk8 and the M2. I hope Honda releases a lightweight version with higher power to take back the record!

Don’t the European cars come with this as standard? My FK8 has lane assist, trafic sign recognition, adaptive cruise control and automatic braking. During some track days the auto brake has kicked in when it thinks I am not braking hard enough :)

I Also have a strange issue related to the fuel gage and the calculated remaining mileage left until empty tank. The tank is 47L and I typically average 8L/100km, so the range with full tank is like 600km. Everything was working fine until I took the car on a trackday and as you all know the...

I have not found anything suitable yet, I tried to order a stock cap to see if I could rebuild it, but my local Honda dealer is kind of slow so I have not received it yet.

I had a 2004 facelifted AP1 a few years ago. Right now I have a FK8. The s2000 was fun but I got tired with a few things as time went by and eventually changed it to a m3 e46 instead. Gearbox feel in the s2k is to me still the best of any car I have tried. 9000 rpm redline was also nice, and...
