@PRL Motorsports how is the development coming along? Are things still on track for a release this summer?

Things are coming along great, glad everyone's been so excited about this! I'm sure with everything happening right now and most of the country (and world) on temporary pause we will more than likely experience some sort of brief delay. The goal is to have this available to market sometime in summer, we will keep social media and this thread updated with any further information when there is more!

Thank you for the update and yes I agree health/safety is much more important than cars at this time. Cheers!

I have a PRL DP, FP, and Intercooler.... this has me reasonably excited. However, the price tag will probably keep me away for a little bit but.... yeah.... I know a bigger turbo will help my car for sure...

I don't see it being too too much as a stock location drop in. It's not a big kit where you need a bunch of intake and exhaust specific pieces. Hopefully around $2-2.5k

This here is why I haven’t purchased the rampage rs-450 yet despite how bad I want to. Patience is key

A little birdie told me it was going to be roughly $2500

Ouch, I'm hoping a little less as our Canadian dollar is crap. That's 3525 plus tax for us. That would be the same cost as their whole kit for the 1.5T (Albeit the smallest turbo but still.) We shall see once everything gets released, maybe that price will be an absolute steal for the performance gains.

Question is will there be an off the shelf basemap for the drop in turbo from Ktuner or Hondata to at least hold someone over until they can get a custom tune.

I doubt it, I don't recall off hand if there is a full race turbo basemap, I know there's one for their dp/ic.

The important thing would be to scale back the torque targets down low in the Rev range so you don't get the huge stock tune style surge of torque at 3k lol.
The way I have my throttle mapped out now I get my surge right at 4.5-5k with the feeling of it gradually ramping up more and more from 3.5-4ish. I kinda like it lol

I'll probably finally get a custom tune when I get mine just to be safe.

ouch indeed! yeah I initially thought it was going to be around 2k, and if it's a total steal then oh well why not haha :D

Even though it may seem like the world is ending, production on our P600 Turbocharger Upgrade for the 2017+ Honda Civic Type-R 2.0T (2018+ Accord and 2019+ RDX) has not stopped. Here are a few more pictures of one of our production-quality, prototype units that we will be testing within the next few weeks once the stainless steel turbine housings arrive.

Thank you for the update

Do you think you will have any bundle deals when it is released? Like paired with turbo inlet pipe and/or charge pipe upgrade
