  1. FK8 MAP Sensor Limitations

    It's not for us.
  2. FK8 MAP Sensor Limitations

    They are 4 bar and will read over 43psi. Mapped and working properly in MoTeC, as are all things Type R ;)
  3. KTuner For Type-R - Now Available

    The factory ECU is not/does not do flex fuel.
  4. Ktuner joins in on Tuning

    Umm... you sure? KTuner's parent company has been around for 18+ years.
  5. VitTuned Drop In Turbo Upgrade -- Initial Results Sneak Peak!

    No. We were aware PRL was doing this ages ago and have supported them in the move. I can't speak for their pricing, but our turbo upgrade was meant to be entry level (as far as cost). A Type R turbo at retail is $1500. Add in the work needed to make it fit the car and you're probably looking at...
  6. Ktuner joins in on Tuning

    I suspect there will be no live tuning on the R. It requires custom code to implement. The moment that is done, everyone in the world will have live tuning for the R as it's trivial to throw the ECU on the bench and pull the ROM. I don't understand your question? Is the V2 a nice device? It is...
  7. Ktuner joins in on Tuning

    V2 has a touch screen display.
  8. KTuner For Type-R - Now Available

    There's no way around it -- you have to open the ECU and "bench flash" it to remove the RSA protection.
  9. KTuner For Type-R - Now Available

    Our unlocked by KTuner stock ECU that we've been able to tune for some time. We have just done rapid development on the Type R and grown beyond the capabilities of the OEM ECU strategies (this is not a "Bosch Motorsport" ECU as ignorant bench flashers pushing Dimsport reflashes seem to claim --...
  10. Major Props to Ktuner

    You're posting screenshots of speed density VE maps in an ECU unrelated to this one. This ECU is MAF based and has nothing like that. Everything is all there to tune fuel as desired in the End User software.
  11. Traveled Across the Country to Pick Up my Type R

    Welcome to "I drove what feels like a million miles to get my R" club!
  12. Save the money, stick with factory intake.

    Uh huh. "Team up for remote tuning" after I announced our tuning system. How exactly do you intend to facilitate this remote tuning? Haven't heard a peep about purchasing it. How do you want it to be interpreted? Don't waste your time justifying yourself, it won't change anything.
  13. Save the money, stick with factory intake.

    I want to add to the inconsistency of testing on the stock ecu. Here's a dyno from an international customer. The dotted lines (3 top ones) are one car. The dashed lines (2 bottom ones) are another. The first car seems to be happier than the second car (still ha some fluctuations). The second...
  14. Save the money, stick with factory intake.

    Can you explain where in the language of my post you found the words "praise" or anything even remotely synonymous with it? We'll be using PRL's DP, if it has the same problems, I'll say the same thing. I'll even call them up and tell them. The whole point of not naming any names is I am not...
  15. Save the money, stick with factory intake.

    I saw about 10hp before I started hitting the fuel system limits and misfiring. The dyno is not a good way to demonstrate an intercooler upgrade. I've done high speed runs and the PRL intercooler prevents the post I/C temps from taking off rapidly like the stock I/C. Run 26psi+ and the stock i/c...
  16. Save the money, stick with factory intake.

    I'd rather not say. I'm waiting for PRL to release theirs and we will be using their downpipe. Aside from the power gain, which is cool and all (not unexpected), I got bored and wanted to try something while I wait for my meth kit parts to come in before I can program the control logic into the...
  17. Save the money, stick with factory intake.

    Intercooler is a consistency/reliability mod more so than anything else in my mind. The stock i/c skyrockets post I/C air temps during long pulls very quickly. The PRL unit helped alleviate this behavior quite a bit. The upper DP section we've tested so far has made 20whp. So far nothing's made...
  18. Save the money, stick with factory intake.

    That intake was actually worse than stock. Even with the "heatshield" it was drawing hot air from the engine bay instead of being force fed through the scoop like the stock intake. In dyno and real world conditions. Airbox temperatures rise rapidly as you build boost, which is the opposite of...
  19. Request for a KTuner Civic SI vs Type R driving experience comparision

    There is really no comparison to a Type R. We have both the Si and the R now. Driving both cars you can tell where the extra money is spent on the R. The handling and response of the car is unmatched compared to the Si -- which feels sloppy and tons of body roll in the corners (even in "Sport"...
