PRL Motorsports 2017+ Honda Civic Type-R FK8 High Volume Intake System Install Guide

Any updates if the cause of the codes were from a small tear to the hoses?

I'm thinking one or more of the hose or the EVAP itself weren't seated properly so as mentioned, I removed the factory clamps and installed better aftermarket ones to ensure I was getting a good seal. So far so good. I couldn't find any trace of a tear. I bought some extra 5/16" hose line from the auto parts store just in case.

How do we go about getting the updated purge valve? I just installed my PRL HVI last week that I ordered a couple months ago and I'm having some trouble avoiding it rubbing on the hood. It looks like the updated part would help with this, but I tried contacting PRL and have recieved no response.

So I just installed my HVI. Disconnected the negative side of the battery before starting. Did the install, car started right up. I noticed though I'm getting warning signs on my dashboard...is this normal? Will they go away after driving it for a few miles or is there some kind of reset I need to do???

 

[Mr. X]

Never mind! All warning lights have turned off, good to go!

Thank you, well managed to fit the intake.I didn’t have the updated instructions but even for a mechanically inept person like me managed to do it in a couple of hours.

now got some nice whoosh noises ?

Easiest way to replace the street MAF with the race MAF? I'm guessing you need to remove the entire airbox. Turbo inlet pipe going in as well.

intake/maf that all?

That doesn't answer the question at all. I have the intake. I'm guessing I'm going to just break the intake box back down.

Yeah I'm thinking just removing the intake box is your best bet.
