How come?If you go with Prl big turbo kit your new TIP from 27won will become a paper weight.
Not compatibleHow come?
Oh shit that’s right. See that’s another thing that’s deterring me away from prl is the fact that they make you buy all their stuff. I’d also have to get rid of my dp and go with theirs too. It’s frustrating, but I don’t want to drop $1500 now just to wish I would have went prl in 6 months.Not compatible
I am a huge fan of both Prl and 27won, imo they both make quality parts for the community. I have the W1 turbo and love it. Again just my opinion but if you want 320-350whp and boost to hold till redline without having to build your motor I think the W1 is the best bang for your buck. If you want higher numbers and are willing and able to build your motor and upgrade your fuel system than with the Prl kit the sky is the limit. Do you have an upgraded clutch?Oh shit that’s right.

sigh...
yea I love prl’s stuff and the 27won TIP is the first thing I’ve ordered from them. I’ve heard nothing but great things about them and I REALLY appreciate their blog posts of the R&D they do.I am a huge fan of both Prl and 27won, imo they both make quality parts for the community.

Can you run W1 with ethanol blend o. Stock internals? Do fuel injectors need to be upgraded?Guys,
The benefits of the W1 are not just limited to a number on a graph. The upgraded turbocharger really wakes up the little 1.5L, and in my opinion, really rounds out the 10th Gen chassis.
40-50whp gains from a nearly unnoticeable turbo upgrade are pretty remarkable really, but what really shines is the power band. With the stock turbo you can easily light off the turbo down low to get the rush of torque, but then the turbo just falls on its face by 5200rpm...the fun ends there. This is the definition of a turbo car that feels quick but isn't fast...it has nothing up top.
With the W1 you can still get your rush from the torque, granted its a few hundred rpm later, but the longevity of the engine will thank you. After the rush of torque you are still making power through 5K and on up to 7k if desired. Its this extra 1000-1500rpm of usable power that will really change the way the car wants to be driven. This is how a car can feel quick and still be fast.
The power under the curve is the real difference from OE to W1. If you're on the fence about the W1 then I highly suggest you find a local with a W1 installed and go for a ride shotgun (if possible). I'm confident you would change your mind.
Yes, yes, noCan you run W1 with ethanol blend o. Stock internals? Do fuel injectors need to be upgraded?
27won turbo can be run with the cvt. @Barett@27WON confirmed this himself: https://www.civicx.com/forum/threads/27won-turbo-upgrade-on-cvt.31460/Is 27won turbo a big no no for cvt? Running prl cai, fp & dp(decatted) and will be acquiring an intercooler too soon. Would tsp stage 1 run or do I really need to have a custom tune? Planning to keep the car for 60-70k miles as my my daily.
Will this be a big turbo kit like the one PRL has where you have to have their intake, dp, etc. or will this be able to standalone and work with other popular aftermarket parts (like the W1)?You guys should def check this out.

Will be like the W1 in that regards.Will this be a big turbo kit like the one PRL has where you have to have their intake, dp, etc. or will this be able to standalone and work with other popular aftermarket parts (like the W1)?
