  1. Is ktuner good enough?

    KTuner isnā€™t going to make more power over Hondata. Quite the opposite actually, many high power setups wonā€™t work at all on KTuner due to needing a fuel pump or flex fuel or an aircharge limit bypass. They both do the same thing, which is replacing data on the ECU. Itā€™s not like a part that can...
  2. What did you do to your Type R today?

    this man knows no bounds and dreams of nothing but red if you donā€™t have red tires some day Iā€™ll die a disappointed man
  3. PRL Motorsports 2017+ Honda Civic Type-R FK8 High Volume Intake System Install Guide

    Technically you could do it without removing the intake if your silicone is still pliable enough. But itā€™s easier to just take it out.. if you drop one of those bolts into the engine bay itā€™ll be no fun.
  4. Daily driven Civic Type r Fk8 overheating after HONDATA tune and downpipe

    All you really need to know is how to datalog which is on my site www.datalo.gs - the site itself lets you upload datalogs but thereā€™s a short tutorial on it too near the bottom
  5. Daily driven Civic Type r Fk8 overheating after HONDATA tune and downpipe

    Thereā€™s really only two ways for this to happen on a custom tune. 1. You have a flex fuel kit and it wasnā€™t set up to use the primary coolant temp sensor, so it always saw it reading well below 170F on secondary (flex kit replaces secondary sensor) and never ran the fans 2. Fan temps were set...
  6. Invalid N/A

    You shouldnā€™t ever be overheating just driving around, even tuned.
  7. Just received my package from Hondata for my 2020 R. FlashPro and Jailbreaker are present but Instant Jailbreak is missing. Is it a physical item?

    There will usually be some codes after the jailbreak process. If it doesnā€™t go away after a little bit more driving, go into FlashProManager, click the online menu, and press Clear DTCs. Or flash a basemap, itā€™ll accomplish the same thing.
  8. Just received my package from Hondata for my 2020 R. FlashPro and Jailbreaker are present but Instant Jailbreak is missing. Is it a physical item?

    Technically no, but you might as well plug it in because itā€™s only one click away from actually doing the jailbreak process. Once youā€™re jailbroken the physical device can be unplugged and is basically useless to you, however it can be used by anyone else.
  9. Just received my package from Hondata for my 2020 R. FlashPro and Jailbreaker are present but Instant Jailbreak is missing. Is it a physical item?

    The ā€˜instant jailbreakā€™ is a one-time jailbreaking from their software. Youā€™ll enter in the order number when you do it. Nothing physical.
  10. PRL Motorsports P600 Honda Civic Type-R FK8 Drop-In Turbocharger Upgrade Development

    A PRL customer support rep made a mistake, theyā€™re still producing them but not taking orders directly until they catch up. You can still order it through a couple vendors though like myself (www.fk8.clinic) and weā€™ve got it on a Black Friday sale for 10% off until Monday.
  11. Hondata Fuel Upgrade vs Custom

    Yes. You can mix and match the parts and upgrade the pump alone later too.
  12. FlashPro for CTR tuning results

    it just starts guessing, some form of extrapolation. It is better to get a larger MAF housing, yes.
  13. Hondata Fuel Upgrade vs Custom

    Thereā€™s no trickery about it, the same invisible tables that Hondata changes for their fuel pump is changed for XDI too, just with different values. The main difference is fuel pressure tuning. XDI likes a bit of a different curve and the base mod for the pressure is kind of crap. Thereā€™s also...
  14. FK8 Clinic Black Friday Sale

    Hey CivicX, Just a heads up that I'm running our yearly Black Friday sale starting today and ending on Monday at www.fk8.clinic. Discounts: 20% off tunes and retunes 10% off PRL Motorsports products (including the P600 turbo!) 10-15% off Xtreme-DI products 20% off Rampage hardware (nuts...
  15. The FK8 Wiki: Tuning and technical info

    1500F is about as far as Iā€™m willing to see and only for a moment. Iā€™m not sure what temperature the air charge reduction activates, but I disable it on pretty much every car except heavy duty track cars where EGT management is critical. That being said, the EGT sensor is unfortunately...
  16. Auto Rev Match Doesn't Always Work

    It also has a higher minimum RPM in comfort mode and possibly sport.
  17. How to tell if ECU was previously unlocked?

    Only way to know is to try flashing it with your KTuner or having someone plug in their FlashPro to check the jailbreak status.
  18. Low boost?

    On the stock calibration, yeah. The top end is pretty heavily neutered. How hot was it? Temps play a huge role in this too. If you have a scanner you can try reading the fuel trims to see if itā€™s heavily negative at WOT. That would indicate a boost leak.
  19. Low boost?

    15psi sounds about right for such high elevation. Even my tuning customers with a custom tune see 18-22 at best at 4500 and such a high elevation, compared to the 27-29psi and 22psi by redline at sea level. The ECU has an extremely conservative turbo compression ratio limit that is affected by...
