Selling my KTuner V2 used on my 2018 Honda Civic Si. TSP Stage 1 tune included and I can send e-mailed files. I have both the regular tune and the "inverted" tune where the "hot tune" was in slot 1 or default when starting the car without the KTuner plugged in. This is how I ran the car about...

Yeah, I was pretty pissed when I saw it. Only reason I thought to look at the dash cam was because it too over an hour for an oil change, with almost no one in the waiting area. I only realized when I got it back that they had washed it after the oil change. I was kinda pissed especially since I...

Change your own oil or else you risk the dealership trying to teach the porters how to drive manual in your car with the parking brake on. Ask me how I know...

Vehicle: 2018 Civic Si sedan Total tuned time: 1.5 years Total tuned mileage: 16,000+ miles Tuning device(s) used: KTuner V2 Tunes used: KTuner 21 for about 1,000 miles; TSP Stage 1 running Map 3 as default startup for 15,000+ miles Fuel used: 93 usually either from Sams or Quiktrip...

This was about a year and a half ago shortly after getting the car. I was driving my S2000 for about a week during the summer and let my Si sit about 7 days with the KTuner plugged in. When I went to start the car it was D.E.A.D. Didn't know what it was so I let it be. Some time later it sat for...

I run the inverted tune, basically slots 1/3 are swapped so it defaults to the "hot" tune when I start up since I don't leave the Ktuner V2 plugged in (btw, if you leave your car sit for a week with it plugged in, expect a dead battery). I like having the power at the press of a pedal, but...

I didn't intent do spark debate over whether or not you can get a faster car for the cost of the Type R by dumping $10K into the Si, I'm aware of that. In my particular scenario the question was do I sell my S2000 and Si to get into the Type R? At $35K that made somewhat sense. at $40K+ that...

I was anxiously awaiting to hear the about the release of the 2020 Type R in the expectation that I may sell my S2000 and 2018 Civic Si to upgrade to the Type R. I expected the Honda Sensing and other minor improvements, which it seems to be the case. Good to see the other improvements, but if...

This is correct. The two reports on the left are Mobil 1 0W-20 AFE and the single column on the right is what the dealer put in 0W-20 Semi-Syn (I want to say it was Castrol, but not sure). One of those Mobil 1 changes was done by the dealer as well (I had done my own oil change, but took it to...

Attached report shows the first oil change with the dealer synthetic blend, and the subsequent changes with Mobil 1 AFE. It's better, over more miles. Still some dilution, but not as bad. The dealer has record of my claim for oil dilution, with notation of used oil analysis (I've even had them...

My wife's 2017 had a pretty bad issue with the oil dilution. I changed oil to Mobil 1 0W-20 Advanced Fuel Economy and that seemed to help quite a bit. This was a comparison to the 0W-20 Semi-Synthetic the deal put in. Both oils have been tested with Blackstone labs. Running about 7000-9500 miles...

Fully aware of that fact. Kind of why I've kicked around the idea of just keeping the Si for fuel economy and daily use and trade S2000 and Jeep in for a newer truck/suv for family hauling duties. Time will tell depending on what the 2020 Type R is like.

Appreciate the feedback! My line of thinking is that I've had the S2000 and done almost everything I'd want to do with it. Long roadtrip, fun back roads, group drives. Only thing I haven't done is autoX or tracking. I'd like to do that some day, but don't really want to get deep into another...

One thing about those interested in selling to Carvana is to hold out if you're not in a rush. Set up the offer, then let it expire. Renew the offer again and its generally a few hundred higher than the first one. I did this a few times for my Si (just to see what it'd be worth if I wanted to...

I've been wondering about why the 2020 Type R hasn't been released. My speculation is that since it's the only Civic (maybe one of the only Hondas) without Sensing, is that they're working on adding that to the Type R. I'm sure it was a challenge for the Si being a Manual transmission (not sure...

Let me thank everyone that has given valuable input. Still a tough decision as you all bring up good points. It seems like there's a quite a few of you that have had or know people that had an S2000 and ended up regretting selling it. I love the S2000 platform, I'm just not sure I love MY...

So I just got back from an S2000 group drive, S2KI's Boston Mountain Tour for those that care. I took my wife along for the ride and while the rain kept our speeds down, the event was about 5 hrs away. The ride there and back just was not very comfortable for her (first time on a roadtrip in the...

All good feedback and I appreciate it! I may hold off a few months after the baby arrives to really pull the trigger on anything. I'd like to see how my needs change before making a determination. That and spring time would be best to sell the S2000 anyway. I'm about 70% certain I want to sell...

I've held off on posting this for a while but I've gotten to the point I need your help. Over the last 4 months I've been in a pretty significant self-struggle in the debate on whether or not to get a Type R (first-world problems, I know). I'll explain my scenario then considerations so bare...

Dealers will sell at MSRP, but charge you $400 for wheel locks, $600 for floor mats, $1000 for scotchguard, $2000 for PPF on the door sills and hood. They're going to get the money they want out of it. Local dealer had a Type R when they had just come out. No ADM, but they wanted something like...
