Update on my Boosted K20C2

[ThatSlowFc2]

Hey man! I’m sure you guys know me, some of you guys love me some don’t. Almost a whole year since I’ve boosted it, and I haven’t had zero issues other than more frequent oil changes, injector swaps, or very minor problems. Fully enjoy it, been tuned since August of 2019, dyno sheets to show it. Been tuned at 10 pounds on a stock ecu and stock internals, which everyone said wasn’t possible. Annndd I’m here a nearly a year later with my daily driven boosted LX, fully enjoying it. Do I baby this car ? Hell no I don’t. It’s not luck that it lasted this long, obviously these engines could hold more than most think. To my 2.0 people who wants to boost their engine, GO FOR IT. Don’t let nobody tell you otherwise. Would love to send videos here but unfortunately I cannot, if you want videos dm me on IG! @markiepacheco much love

What are you using for tuning? Also did you film any of the dyno pulls? Congrats!

Your not even making much at 10lbs lol

Can we see the dyno sheets? Curious to see what my EX sedan could do.

Yeah bro I do I’m using Ktuner , dm me and I’ll send you them bro

Cool stuff. How does the tuning work? Does Ktuner actually support a turbo on the 2.0? That would surprise me, though admittedly I haven't been following the tuning scene all that closely.

I’m sure @KTuner would say what DRob said already

Somebody please answer this for me. There are people that say the 2.0NA ecu can not see positive pressure. Ok well how have all the NA motors in the past been turbocharged and supercharged with no issues? Are the ecu’s being replaced on all these cars? For instance if I were to supercharge a camaro will the factory ecu not be compatible? Or will a simple program make it possible?

Ktuner doesn't support positive manifold pressure for 10th gen civix lx 2.0 NA. The ECU is not the same as a camaro lol or any other car. You do know most people who swap their NA for turbo or supercharge has an ecu that allows them to do so properly. Or in most cases as I have seen used a standalone ecu or use an actual tuner device that has software capabilities to bypass the limits of the stock ecu. All I know is the NA, SI, and Type R's or even Non Si's turbo'd ecu's all work differently. Type R ecu requires to be jailbroken or unlocked first before tuning. Non Si ecu is more sensitive vs Si in terms of tuning and reacts differently. Si ecu is limited in what it can actually do as I know since I am custom tuned. There is a reason why no company even bothers to make a turbo kit for the 10th Gen NA Civic's.

Standalone solves that problem.
