I can't see the button to order the Stage 1 on the PRL website ... it just says "Coming soon!" https://prlmotorsports.com/CivicTypeRFK8Stage1Intake.aspx

We cannot sell the full stage one at this time as we have not confirmed filters yet, many people are buying the tube only kit and running either knn or stock.

UPDATE!! We just finished testing on a stock customer Type-R today over 20 pulls with all different temperature ranges throughout the day! Gains! We will put together the data and dyno charts soon for you all to see!

shipping out the tubes yet?
We will start

ETA 10/15/18 Listed on our website when you ordered it. This is the estimated shipping date and we are looking to keep on track with this. We had a small batch previously and which we were able to provide some companies the opportunity to test them prior to our large batch for consumers.

Thanks! I do have just the tube in my cart, but the introductory full stage one price is very good so I'd like to get that instead.

Just placed my order for the Stage one tube, already have a K&N drop in filter and will be installing my PRL intercooler today when UPS drops it off!

It’s not hard at all I would just recommend having someone to help and also have plastic pry tools to push on the tabs and to remove clips a good reference for this would be the Mishimoto bumper removal video on YouTube

Awesome! Did this one run the K&N or stick with the stock filter?

dang, you're patient...I would have unboxed and installed the same day, lol
It's tough! But I promised to get before-and-after dyno results.


BTW for all following, I have an appointment with DRob at IMW on Monday at 1 if anyone is interested in stopping in to check it out. We plan to do a quick baseline pull with stage 1 (to see how temperature/conditions Monday compare to what we did in March), flash to stock and pull, install pipe and pull, and re-load Stage 1 tune and pull. I'm on the stock filter with about 12000 miles on it so we'll see how much the tube alone can help! Unfortunately I don't have a drop-in filter handy to add further test configurations.
