I used the 27won "street" for a couple weeks... totally unbearable 😫
Makes me wonder how people can even start their engine with "race" ...
TypeR is just perfect for me.
I think they only come out in 18" +
The Potenzas are great in terms of traction and grip but cabin noise will be significant.
I think the GY Assy 6 will be great. Initial feedback from a friend with a FK7 on 17's is superb.
You can get away with a starter21 which is OKish for no bolt ons.
Then you can get an etune once you have some parts like intake, intercooler and or downpipe.
Hi, 98RON is not bad fuel, it will allow the KControl to move a bit around with a high power tune, but not too dramatic. Your problem with canned tunes is that EUDM models do not use closed loop under WOT, so your AFR will vary and will not be optimal. Phearable was not even selling their stage...
Hi Nick,
here's the reference from Civinfo with the service bulletin details :
10G Aircon Whistle Recall | 2006+ Honda Civic Forum (civinfo.com)
hope it helps!
24ish psi max boost on the TD03
Mine was made on a local workshop. You can find parts by mamba on eBay, and I know @CAPTS in Malaysia may be able to source / fabricate one for you.
It is possible that it just overshoots to 28 briefly during spool and settles to 26 as the rpms rise...
Maybe you have a log from your normal drives you could share...
W2 without ability to rev well past 7000rpm is totally not worth it.
Here's my dyno plots with TD03 sized hybrid (not MHI) vs W1
Top end power output is comparable but the W1 is considerably lazier between 2800-3200rpm which is quite noticeable (but still driveable), although it produces the...
If a rod is bent its usually better to repair stuff before it punches its way through your block lol. I would presume that your mech can invoke warranty process to investigate the strange sound anyway.
W1 actually has a V2, with a 9blade hot side that reduces back pressure (and therefore heat)...
You can play a bit with Starter21 with adjusted top end MAF scale (preset in KTuner) and Disable Artificial Knock rise to start with.
TSP1 was jerky at low rpm on 1st and 2nd, and has been for other users as well. For others it has been ok (or they don't mind lol :) )
Mileage Update Post - also with a custom DP/FP combo now ...

Those look amazing Nick! Can't wait to see them on the CRV man :)
I went the Megane 3 RS way for the Civic after I absolutely fried my brakes in Megara lol
Here's the plot in full size. Dashed is a "conservative" tune that runs consistently at 0.49KC on my RON100 pump gas even after many back to back dyno pulls and 100-200km/h street pulls.
Solid is a crunchy tune that pushes KC and may not be a good idea to run daily. The engine is knock limited...
