I was on the track in my local Town against a gen Coupe, which I think was a 3.8... and I definitely got gapped.

Anyone here with experience against a gen Coupe running a ktuner?

I also did another pull earlier tonight with Eclipse with a 2.0 Turbo and he got me off to lunch but I was definitely catching up.

Tuning isn't simply about tuning device, it's about the tune you run.

Even a base KTuner tune is a huge jump from stock but a Phearable or TSP OTS tune is an even bigger jump. If you're FBO, a custom tune will take you even further.

Put it this way, with a Phearable 1.5R my Civic can give a WRX or GTI a pretty good run. Stock, I'd lose by a city block.

I've been reading a lot about the Phearable tune on here. Is that only available on k tuner?

Dude, your knowledge about these vehicles and the performance and tuning process is incredibly valuable, bar none.

I am simply want to personally thank you for everything you have contributed to these thread. I have learned a lot from your posts.

And it is selfish of me to say this, but I hope you stick around this forum for a long time.
