Vehicle: 2020 Civic Type R
Total tuned time: 1 day
Tuned miles driven: 10 kms (just flashed)
Tuning device(s) used: Hondata flashpro (also have a ktuner v1.2 but planning on selling)
Tunes used: Hondata 91 octane tune
Fuel used: Chevron 94 octane (no ethanol)
Additional related mods: K&N drop in air filter
Problems/issues: None
Driving style: it’s my daily driver so nice and easy around town and aggressive when on backroads and canyon carving.
Tune experience notes: This is my 4th venture into tuning and 3rd on the civicx platform. My first go at tuning was with my lsvtec swapped ek hatch and went with a Phearable chip in a p28 ecu all the way back in 2013. Awesome tune and tons of fun. My 2017 fk7 sport hatch was my next go at it and with it I had a Hondata flashpro running the +9 basemap. Loads of torque but felt liked it lacked the up top power I was used to in previous Hondas. After that I got a 2020 fc1 Si and went with a ktuner v1.2 this time and right away bought the Phearable 1.5 tune. That tune blew me away, gobs of today and that missing top end from my fk7 was gone. Loved the car but still wanted more power and was concerned about building the l15b7 as I’d rather reliable horsepower and like to keep it to basic mods. Here we get to my 2020 fk8, just received my flashpro and went right away into jailbreaking the ecu and flashing my first tune on it. Wowza the spool is insane and low end torque I missed from the fc1 is back. I’ll make sure to update when I get some more miles on it. Thanks everyone.
