  1. NY Inspection hondata

    Wth? I never heard of this before. Why can't you just set the O2 sensors like you want in the software? I've never had to do this.
  2. How to buy a Civic Type R/is an Si good enough?

    I completely disagree with this. Most of these cars are marked up along with 100s of other cars. Dealer markup is because of supply and demand. I paid $7k over MSRP (all dealer options) and the car is worth even more now in 2021. If you want the car, then there is nothing wrong with paying...
  3. Engine Masters TV - Does Octane Make Power?

    I'll keep an eye out for it.
  4. TYPE R wing install gone wrong

    I'm not trying to be snide here. Actually curious.
  5. TYPE R wing install gone wrong

    I don't understand. Why are you trying to make your car look like a TypeR?
  6. Excessive white smoke from exhaust

    White smoke is coming from the engine. There is nothing else it can be. I'd do a compression check to make sure things are healthy engine-wise.
  7. Well damn. Another blow to the car shortage.

    Wow. I'm glad I have my cars and don't need to buy a new one. Might as well hunker down and wait this shitstorm out.
  8. TypeR Dyno Results

    All: I decided to build my TypeR after 2yrs of driving it. I started with no mods at all and just an off the shelf tune and made 315whp/334wtq. I've added the following: AWE Touring Exhaust (downpipe, midpipe, full catback) Injen Intake Injen FMIC w/pipes Second dyno tune yielded...
  9. 2022 BRZ

    Agreed. The TypeR sounds a lot less deep. Not sure why the engine is so quiet.
  10. PRL Big Turbo Upgrade, CVT

    That's completely untrue. Numbers do mean a LOT. How do you think we are able to put theory to practice when going to the moon. I'm an engineer and can tell you that numbers should never be ignored. It's simple physics. A mass 400lbs heavier than another mass (all things equal) will take...
  11. PRL Big Turbo Upgrade, CVT

    That KIA guy was ignorant. The Civic had the clear advantage on paper. It was 400lbs lighter with the same bhp. Not even a contest. He got walked even harder from a roll - clearly showing power/weight ratio is much higher.
  12. PRL Big Turbo Upgrade, CVT

    Oh for sure. I just think if an CVT has a big turbo, it should make way more than 300whp. I'm working on a big turbo TypeR and it should make 550whp by the time you throw E85 into the mix (and on stock internals).
  13. Blow Off Valve - Type R

    Agreed 100%. I've raced turbo cars for years and years. Nothing wrong with a BOV and Mass Air Intake. Heat soak from open airbox happens. What matters is the intercooler. I would never buy an open AI with no upgraded FMIC. Better yet, if still have intake temp problems, get meth to cool...
  14. PRL Big Turbo Upgrade, CVT

    Can't see how you can beat stock TypeRs that make 290-300whp stock on the dyno. I have a reflash only and put down 315whp/334wtq
  15. Presenting the AWE Exhaust Suite for the FK8 Civic Type R. Available now!

    I just put in an order for the full 3" exhaust. What's up with you guys taking 3 months to get the exhaust? That's a crazy long time. And you get to keep the money the entire 3 months while we have nothing in return. :hmm:
  16. Honda Civic Type-R Over sticker dealer naughty list.

    David McDavid, Honda Irving, TX Blue TypeR - $68k Black TypeR - 71k NOTE: I bought my own white TypeR from here in 2019. It cost me $42k ($6k options package). While these are sticker prices, no one pays that walking out the door.
  17. 10th Generation FK8 Civic Type R production officially over

    I like that they stopped. That means that the car will be wanted in the used car space.
  18. 2021 Civic Type R Limited Edition: Ultimate Track-Focused Type R Coming to America

    Good yellow. I like mine better. Can't wait for all of the Type-Rs to be done production so we can have some classic cars in our garages.
  19. My dyno numbers (Dynojet)

    Yea, my tuner is a honda shop. They tune these cars and other hondas all the time. He got it out of that traction control mode before tuning as usual.
  20. My dyno numbers (Dynojet)

    Yea, my tuner tried to cool off the car in-between 2 runs. It heat-soaks bad. The order of the dynos were from lowest to greatest. All pulls done in 4th as expected.
