2017 Touring Coupe blew an engine at 26,000 miles, Honda dealership in Charleston West Virginia said in their opinion Honda might not honor the warranty because I had so many aftermarket accessories on the car, so I towed it home to Wisconsin and ordered a used engine from a 2016 car they had 46,000 miles on it. I then launched into the adventure of the engine swap just got it online the other day with the factory tune and a W1 turbo. After monkeying around with a little bit of the nuances of adding a different engine to a car I got that sorted out. Put in a six psi boost from Hondata and now that Old are used engine is now purring like a kitty cat, and with the six PSI tune and no idiot lights it’s now screaming like a banshee burning rubber on 40 mile an hour pulls
Car is running great! I did order Honda’s subchassis alignment tool for putting the sub chassis back on. I think it did help, though a person could probably get by with any sort of straight tool that fits. I was amazed at how well the subchassis balanced on my floor jack. I did break off the exhaust hanger on the front pipe, so I went ahead and laid out some cash for a cheap MIG welder And will remove the front pipe to weld the piece back on. I think if I had to do this all over again it would be a little bit more fun than the first time! ?
