Thanks. What's the smoke on throttle blip coming up from idle? Is your car set to run rich at idle by the "tune"? Disclaimer: I know nothing about "tunes". So just an innocent question.

Funny thing, I thought to myself "watch the first thing ill be asked is whats the smoke LOL" No idea. My buddies does it too, all 4 of our Rs did, I figured its normal. All I know os the OEM exhaust has 3 resonators and this one has 1 maybe that has something to do with it? Went from a restriction on the OEM to none on the new exhaust. It made a bit of smoke like that right after I changed exhaust and before I did any other mods so I figured was related to there being less in the way on the aftermarket exhaust. Plus it was cooler here and I was just starting the car after sitting so who knows :) It is very little though and for the tune I dont switch it between 10 percent and pure when I switch gas so I think right now its on pure gas tune and im running 10% but not sure :dunno:

The new honda hack pro lets you set a start up video. I got a copy of the Type R commercial and cut it down to the cool part to fit the cars start up. Then set it as start up video. Much better then that blank ok safety blah blah blah splash screen.

to be honest I have no idea. on paper by the numbers is should be in the area of 435 HP and 455 torque but if you do the standard losses on reality of what your doing which is about 15% we figure im I the 350-70ish hp range and 385-405 ish torque (coming from guys who have been tuning all their lives but still guesses). Ive spent my money on the mods and need to save to get a proper dyno and tune done. but she runs fast and hard and has zero hickups so I haven't been in a hurry. plus there is not really anyone near me that can do it anyway.
