Thread necromancy! Chiming in to say that my OEM battery in my 2018 Si died this week, completely flat. It was showing weird symptoms when stopping and re-starting, would go into limp mode, all of the MILs would light up, it was not a good time especially when trying to do some datalogs. I...

Thanks for the update! Looking forward to its release!

@PRL Motorsports what up? What's the word on the EWG adaptation? I run the catted version, which is the street downpipe. No issues that I can tell but I don't have anything to compare it against.

I am very much looking forward to the EWG upgrade for the kit and hope it's made available soon!

It was a hard choice for me, I really wanted the Ampliforms but ended up with the Dekagrams. They look really nice, your car looks great! Here's mine taken today, I found out this afternoon that the stupid undertray appears to be in the process of coming off now so that will be fun to deal with.

Hi @PRL Motorsports, just following up to see if there has been any progress towards retrofitting the kit for making use of the stock electronic wastegate actuator. Thanks!

Yeah I'm also still curious, it might be a while before the masses can start bolting the stock electronic WGA to the kit.

Hi KTuner, As there will be more aftermarket turbo kits in the wild as time goes on I was wondering if there will be a possibility of getting the sport mode button on the Si enabled again while the electronic wastegate actuator is disabled in the tune. Currently with the stock ECU and KTuner...

Gotcha, just a repost then. My bad!

Someone put this up 3 days ago.

Nope! The rest of the install went smoothly and I have been working with DRob on e-tuning, dialing in my manual boost controller now for 18psi and continuing to datalog. First had to work out an issue with low boost; make sure to adjust the wastegate actuator pre-load if you have already...

I've been modding cars for years but have never gotten one on a dyno, which is a shame, so I'll be looking for one in the area.

The issue with the bolts being incorrect for the oil drain flange has been resolved on PRL's side. I just counted all of the parts on the packing list for a total of 105, only two bolts out of all of that were incorrect and in my case the tapped holes on the oil outlet of the turbo itself were...

It turns out, after several hardware store trips, that the oil drain flange bolts shipped with the kit were the wrong size after all at 5/16-18 and 16mm in length. We picked up 3 different types of the correct size bolts and they threaded onto the turbo without any issue at all, all the way in...

As an update to the above, Eric @ PRL got back to me this morning and mentioned that Garrett appears to have not chased the threads after casting the turbine housing so I will be on the hunt for an M8x1.25-20mm tap today and will provide an update later on!

I went ahead and began installing my kit today, which I picked up with the GTX2860R GEN2 turbo option. This may be the most mechanically challenging task I've done so far and I have been taking my time + documenting the process as best as I could. Before the carnage began. Front pipe...

Finally washed it after 10 months of ownership (I am a bad owner) and installed the badges I got for christmas. Let the hate for putting R badges on a non-R flow, I think they look appropriate on Rallye Red Si's.

Morimoto Elite HID kit - H11B 5500k bulbs, 35w ballast, HD relay. Morimoto XB LED fog-lights. Black Vue DR750S front/rear 2ch dash camera. OEM Type-R emblems (rice!). Unpopular opinion time: I think they are only appropriate on non-R Civics when they are Rally Red. And I received the initial...

Konig Dekagrams in 18x8.5 +35 with Michelin P4S in 245/40/18 and Eibach pro-kit springs. Rubbed like hell until I bent the front fender tabs.

Manufacturing oil/grease burning off. Also could be the cat just doing it's thing, the smells will go away after a you start giving it the beans more often.
