Hi all. I'm currently a regular over on the SI section of the forums. I have a 2017 SI Coupe with a 21.5 PSI KTuner basemap flashed. Rev hang has been electronically disabled, and throttle sensitivity, spool, etc. have all been maxed. Current estimates at power would be about 215 whp and 230ish wtq.
While I love how sporty my little coupe feels with these settings, I still find myself wondering what I'm missing on the other side of the fence. I had originally been gravitating between getting an SI or a Type R, and honestly, the only thing that made me choose an SI was the fact that at the time, it was almost impossible to find a Type R for less than $45,000 - $50,000. Now that there have been a few more reports of Type R's at MSRP, I've again begun to wonder what I've been missing.
Has anyone driven both an SI with a KTuner basemap and a Type R? If so, could you possibly share your impressions on the comparative experience?
