I know...but I thought MOTEC allowed you the ability to use those options..where as ktuner and hondata don't currently have that option...lol
no injectors offered as far as we have found anywhere and have talked to multiple manufacturers. high pressure pump upgrade starts is very expensive and only gets you a little without injectors as well

ah, lucky for me, I won't worry about that lol. I feel like stage 1 is more than enough power for me.

What he said above ^^^ I haven’t heard of anything to get around the fueling issues yet doesn’t matter what kind of tuner is used. All I can think of is that weird radium setup but I feel they’d mention it. Who knows but I want to
we are working on a completion kit for the Radium Port Injection setup. But really even with proper tuning you are pushing your luck with the bottom end when going over 400whp as it is. We only really recommend going that far if building the block.

no doubt. I learned the hard way on my EP3. I had 301whp and 250lbs of torque...for some reason got greedy and bumped up boost for more power...boom, rod came out the bottom :eek:

I just googled "fk8" "511ps" and found this video:

- 7MOD 550R Turbo upgrade
- Dream Automotive Catted Downpipe with 200CPSI Cat (https://www.dream-automotive.com/co...wnpipe-honda-civic-type-r-fk8-2-0t-k20c1-2017)
- AEM Water Methanol Inject (https://www.aemelectronics.com/prod...ion-kit-for-forced-induction-gasoline-engines)
- Wagner Tuning Intercooler (Prototype)
- Milltek 3" Exhaust

I don't know the specifics of their tune, but I remember this back before I believe ktuner and hondata released their tuning solution (or maybe after, can't remember):
https://www.civicx.com/threads/7mod-fk8-ecu-remap.13538/
The only thing that bothers me is that at no point do they show the entire screen or the entire dyno plot. We have nothing to go off of when it comes to baseline numbers, no correction factor, no quarter mile numbers, etc. I don't doubt that the CTR can make those numbers with the proper setup. In fact, I'd be really disappointed if it couldn't, since those numbers are common in I4s nowadays. But, I've seen enough shady practices in the tuning world to understand that people inflate numbers to sell products all the time. I mean, a stock frame turbo adding almost 200 horsepower with no fuel mods is ballsy. Their only explanation on facebook is that they have a software based workaround for dealing with the high pressure fuel pump. I hope I'm not coming off as a jerk, I've just seen too many Extreme Tunas situations to trust these types of claims without data.

If I'm writing in English but the problem is that I do it from the mobile phone, I can translate it into Spanish but I post it in English. Let's see if you can understand that I use the translator often because I do not understand very very good English greetings
