Do you plan on custom tuning that full 27won setup also?
Yes I do. I'm still familiarizing myself with Hondata and pulling data, just super busy with work this summer and time is my major limiting factor. Anyone interested in learning to tune themselves I highly recommend HP academy. The cost may seem high but paying for custom tunes over the years ends up being more expensive.

You're gonna need slicks to hit low 12's, let alone 11's. If you go 27WON downpipe route, I suggest pairing it with a bigger (3") front pipe, as opposed to the combo which comes with a 2.5", as this seems to be leaving power on the table based on the handful of dynos we've seen.
In hindsight, 11s might be possible with a Nitto 555R tire, which is technically a street legal drag radial, but it's still a street tire. I had great success with it in the past

Alright so I just got back from my first time at the track.
Let me just say, wow this car has the worst wheel hop I have ever experienced. It shows in my first time slip of the night:
60’ 2.620
ET- [email protected]
Run 2 (missed 4th)
60’ 2.248
[email protected]
Run 3
60’ 2.319
[email protected]
Run4
60’ 2.282
ET [email protected]

Tire pressure was 34 and it was 86 degrees out.
Was hoping to break 13’s and 100 trap speed but it didn’t work out tonight.

Never have. Wish I knew how. I’m a newb
Very very simple, I've never played with KTuner but I hear it's really user friendly more so than Hondata and it's very simple there. You running v1.2 or v2? I'm willing to look at data and make recommendations, however I'm not tuning for you lol, it's not that I can't I just simply don't have the time. However I'm looking to make a career change where I would have the time

I will look into it. Sometimes ktuner’s instructions still confuse me so it’s easier to talk to forum members
If you wanna get together some time this week let me know, I can help you.

3,200 miles. Only time I’ve launched was this past Friday at the track.
Damn.... I've got over 15k miles, and clutch feels fine. You considering the FX250, 350, or 400 for a replacement?
