reconnected the sensors properly, everything went well.
installed the tune, and unfortunately found out that i'm stuck with map 3 as my ECU doesn't support map switching... so.. that sucks. sorta. the 20-24psi lbs of boost is pretty freakin sweet. but i'm worried about clutch slippage and most...
im getting brake system, low speed braking, and parking sensor codes.
now that I think about it.. I dont think I put the temp sensor back into the little bracket 💀... I was exhausted and was rushing to put everything back on 😭
im fine with taking off the bumper, I was gonna put the tap in...
got done with installing the PRL intercooler, and also got the DE4 GF bodykit lip V2 for Christmas, which i test fitted. i think it makes it look way more aggressive, although im not sure how i feel about the two middle pieces. i'm most likely gonna keep it, though. i do really like the look of...
hey, sorry for the late reply. I hope you managed to get it installed already.
I dont have any pictures, but theres plenty of video installations out there for it. PRL motorsports has their own installation video which is pretty good, too.
the intake itself has a hole on the bottom that you...
yeah, I still get a noticeable change in vibration when using the AC. however its noticeably less harsh as to when it was still breaking in, and only present when idling AND having the AC on. on the move, i dont feel it at all.
I personally don't mind, it doesnt bother me much. however you...
I dunno, I feel like the A-Spec is a very solid platform for modding. sure, there isn't a lot of headroom to make power as the Type S, but if you're looking for a solid driver's car where handling and driver mechanics are in your top priorities, while being a solid daily, the A-Spec is a very...
there is definitely enough torque in the low end and up until around 5.5-6k.
the 1.5t does like to be revved, but it doesnt like to live at redline as the torque drops off noticeably past 5-5.5k
one of the easiest cars to learn manual on, for sure.
I have both of them. the second link you sent is an optional duct that goes towards the wheel well for more air. but you dont need it, the intake is fine by itself.
oops, yeah thanks for correcting me. single scroll. apparently the 11th gen civic has twin scroll? according to 27won?

if thats the case, I wonder if we can swap turbos from the 11th gen Si...
it's the PRL intake + Side duct. not as loud as a short ram, but still very noticeable, as you could tell in the video.
blow off valves are not recommended for these cars. I forgot the reason why, but its generally not recommended. something with it being a twin scroll turbo?
but yeah, all I...
hey guys, just wanted to send a quick update regarding the RMM. it's been roughly 300-400 miles already put on (I commute a lot), and NVH has decreased SIGNIFICANTLY. however, the vibrations and feedback from the wheel is still there, which I love - most notable at the higher end of the rev...
I'm sure you guys have heard of the 1.5t head gasket issues. It seems like a new lawsuit has propped up in Canada regarding this issue.

it seems to be a relevant problem even in...
so the OEM front pipe will still block the way. what I've seen people on YouTube do is push the front pipe UP, allowing more clearance to get the bolt out.
it's definitely doable on stands, I did it on stands.
I'd recommend getting a ratchet wrench rather than having to put a socket on, and...
