So I've only recently joined this site and made an account a few months ago as I found many of the threads useful. Now I just wanted some specific advice for my build or as specific as someone can get. I've had my 2018 FK8 Honda Civic Type R,(2nd hand got it with 6tkms) for about 6 months now (now at 9tkms)and this is the build so far:
- HKS Intercooler
- HKS Oil cooler (using HKS Super Turbo Racing 5W40)
- HKS Blow off valve ( SUPER SQV IV)
- HKS Racing suction kit
- HKS Hi-Power Spec LII exhaust
- PRL Downpipe
- Hondata Flash Pro (Custom Tune)
- Cusco strut bar
Power as of now (dynojet)
382 whp at the front wheels
387 lb-ft at the front wheels
I wanted to ask if anyone with a similar setup and power has upgraded the stock turbo inlet pipe and how much of a difference it would make in power with and without a tune since it is pretty much a bolt-on. Also if anyone has a recommendation for one that is well priced and still gives good gains pls suggest a brand. I've heard mostly that it will improve low-end response but I also want to know how much of a difference it would make across the powerband. I ask mainly because I am interested in one that is currently for sale by the shop I go to, a PRL branded one and it seems quite pricey.
