I understand an RSX type-s RBC cam phaser gives you 50 degrees total which works out as 25 degrees advance and 25 degrees retard. Likewise, a TSX RBB cam phaser gives you 25 degrees total which works out as 12.5 degrees advance and 12.5 degrees retard ( it says 12.5 on the phaser and measures...

Thanks for all the great info which confirms the good things I have heard about guys running these Aquity reverse hoses. I am hoping these hoses along with the C & R race radiator, the ebay grill and the Mishimoto oil cooler kit( which may get a C & R core ) will get my overheating on hot track...

have you tested your reverse hoses with a C & R track radiator. I am installing a C & R track radiator in my 2018 FK8 along with a set of your reverse hoses. I am also installing a C & R intercooler.

sorry about asking question several times. I am running OEM tune. Have also bought an Invidia Q300 Cat back exhaust system and PRL intercooler hose kit since last post. Any possibility of the stock ecu generating a mil light when I install the C & R intercooler, PRL hose kit and the Invidia...

I am installing a C & R Track radiator and a C & R intercooler in my 2018 CTR . I already have a Mishimoto oil cooler and intake, an Evasive L/H parking light grill and a WTautopart honeycomb sport grill. I also plan on installing Acuity reverse coolant hoses. Does anyone have any experience...

I am running into overheating in my 2018 CTR FK8 while running OTD`s in Michigan, mostly during July and August. So far I have installed a Koyo race rad, a Mishimoto oil cooler, a mishimoto intercooler, a wtautopart Honeycomb grill and a Evasive Motorsport drivers side fog light grill but still...

I run my Fk8 in OTD`s on 2.3 mile Gingerman raceway here in Michigan. I have installed a Koyorad, a Mishimoto IC, Mishimoto intake and Mishimoto oil cooler. On 75 degree and below days I can run hard for a full 20 minute session but 75 to 80 degree and above days I only can get 2 to 3 laps in...

I agree that it cools down quickly if you back off for 1/2 to 1 full lap or so but as soon as you get on it again it goes full hot almost immediately and you have to pit. My car has a stock tune. It does have a Mishimoto intake besides the Mishimoto intercooler and oil cooler, Koyo rad and ebay...

I finally ran my 2018 Type R on a warm day on June 15th. It was 65 degrees in the morning and I got 3 - 20 minute runs in with no temp gauge movement. In the afternoon it went up to 80 degrees and my temp gauge went up past 3/4 hot pushing full hot after 3 laps in my 1st session. It appears my...

Tried water wetter last summer - no help. Also tried heater full blast, removing the engine belly pan and switching to Motul 8100 5w30 full synthetic but no help when temperatures were over 80 degrees F. If temperatures are in low 70`s or less you can run all day with no problems. Like I said...

I ran the car at Gingerman this May 9th when it only got up to 51 degrees F. I removed the aluminum belly pan before the event. The car now has the ebay grill, Evasive drivers side parking light grill, Mishimoto oil cooler, Mishimoto intercooler, Mishimoto intake and Koyo race radiator...

I talked to an engineer friend of mine who worked for a large turbo manufacturer in the U.S. and asked him about his opinion on turbo blankets. He said they are a bad idea. When they endurance tested their turbos they used large fans blowing on the housings to control heat. He said oil coking...

Has anyone installed a turbo blanket on a Civic Type R FK8 . Any help would be appreciated
