Alright, I’m pretty sure at least 95% people have done either the ktuner or hondata as first mod. Well, after that what was your next mods, specially aesthetic, if any. If y’all could post pics of your machines, it’ll be interesting.

How are your IATs with the mishimoto intake? Hondata had a video comparing intakes and mishimoto produced less power vs stock due to higher temps. Curious what your experience is.

@fatherpain how is the hevi bebi shift knob? ive always wanted one

 

[fatherpain]

Really liking it, though it was a bit pricey. Perfect size and shape. Went Titan Baby for color customization, but it is the same dimension as the Heavy. There were wilder colors to choose from but stayed with the regular Heavy Baby finish on the top which matches the Type R color scheme.

The Titan is lighter than the Heavy as it is titanium. However I had a threaded brass bushing inserted so the weight should be close.

Have it paired with an Acuity full shifter (lowest height setting), bushing kit, shift boot and Amsoil MTF. Shifts are really smooth.

A more detailed write up is about 1/2 way down the page of my Type R Journal if interested in reading more:

@fatherpain, I know this is off the topic but do you happen to have a aftermarket exhaust? If so, which one? I’m planing on getting the invidia r400, because I love the deep tone, and apparently does not make any raspy noise. The only thing is that read someone’s review saying that the frontpipe connects to the exhaust with only 2 screws. This is the downside, cause I wanted to get the PRL FP/DP combo.

 

[fatherpain]

Hello gva2984,
Yes sir. Went with Sequence Titanium Exhaust. It’s valved so is quiet like stock until 6-7psi Boost is applied then it bypasses the mufflers. Quieter than most..Zero drone except maybe @2800-3100 RPM in 6th gear. Detailed write up also on my journal page (1) about 1/4 way down...

I do not yet have a FP/DP.

Thanks a lot! I’ll dig into this exhaust...

Need reference on a website that I never heard of. Has anyone ordered from Emnotek.com? They had a pretty good deal on exhaust system and I just want to make sure this is a legit website...

Not sure about the site, but you could always email the exhausts’ manufacturer and ask if Emnotek is an authorized distributor.

Sure will. Will post if it’s legit as soon as I know.

Yes they are legit. They're more known for subis but I ordered the rallyarmor mudflaps for the CTR from them. They were the cheapest and they shipped quickly.

we honestly didnt see that in our testing originally, but our enviroment wasnt as controlled as theirs may have been. Currently we are using the Mishimoto maint box unit but with a custom top panel to clear our larger 4" MAF Housing
