Wotp x hpt cooling plate installed & some concept pics for trans cooler airflow.

Yep thinking the solution will be something like that. A friend (w/ a s2000 & '94 H22A1 prelude) suggested cheap dryer tubing to redirect air from behind the radiator and/or incorporating a shroud for the transmission cooler. I think wheel well liner venting makes sense, but then also thinking...

CVT / Heat Soak update: Went on our local/mini tail of the dragon (Little Italy route) this past weekend to let a friend test out the car and see what the trans temp & ECT temps are up to under real stress. The car was in Sport + S Drive with manual mode for this. We really could only push...

Is it the tune itself, or do spark plugs with shorter gaps play into it as well? Might be imagined, but would nearly swear it's an instantaneous difference tuned with .026 vs tuned with .032.

I tried using a pen style and a brush style... reached the conclusion that I should just wait to take it to a place to do a full paint correction or something.

When you get the tune file you use the ktuner software to load the tune on your ktuner device. In the software you can change 2 settings - early spool toggle and auto-start/stop disable. For fuel injector you could add stft and ltft to your ktuner display. If ltft is -10 to -20%, it might be...

Curious.. Do you have early spool turned on or off in the software?

Well that's awfully pragmatic

Lol.. Using some AI credits to see if we can armchair engineer the vented rear rotors... VW atlas has rear calipers with EPB that can handle 22mm rotors. I happen to have an Atlas... Apparently would need to test the electrical resistance and draw of the oem vs the atlas caliper, and if...

Yeah figured it'd be hard to say much, they only have 3 decent road sessions. Closest route for it here is the Pinnacle to Little Italy route. ~24 miles round trip with 400ft elevation change, 40 mins or so spirited. Just feel like these sidewalls roll or the tires want to let go too soon when...

12k miles on these, rotated most recently at 10k.

That makes a lot of sense - tires are still the stock ones, brakes are upgraded, but haven't done springs or geometry. Think best play for now would then be to drop to the mid RSB setting and upgrade the tires then assess from there.

Interesting - in theory would a heavy duty rear sway bar counteract some of the handling loss from disabling vsa/tcs? Have been testing my rv6 RSB at different settings, have it on the stiffest at the moment and there is some lift-off oversteer. Thinking I should go to the mid setting but love...

What's the deal with vented real rotors? Seems curious that there's not an option. We could just try emailing summit or someone similar about them. Most of these companies are pretty responsive to parts suggestions, especially if the community is asking for it. Artwork custom designed an...

You're probably good - i just put them on the gap gauge tool and lightly whacked them a few times with my wrench.

Have you seen ZL1's for the Type R? Curious if those would work. Saw they had some when getting my mud flaps

Title is it mostly - just curious what mods y'all are looking for that aren't quite available yet. I'm waiting for some more subframe chassis bracing options to come out, and would love some more cooling options. Be it cosmetic or performance - what are you wanting to see?

Yep the email that the pherable tune comes with has the instructions for which spark plugs to use at what gap. Also, when you order the tune, you're supposed to indicate what octane fuel you use. Stock boost is around 15 or 16 psi, map 3 is 25 psi. I had factory plugs for a few days before I...

Ah sorry, was thinking of the adapter for the 1.5t 3in exhaust/fp. Looks like 2.0t fp comes with both/you can use either shape. You should hear it hissing if not sealed.

On the Aspec CVT I get 29 around town, 36+ hwy. I mostly only drive 14 miles/day for work, though. Maybe 250 miles/month. I'm on 93, phearable 1.5r, auto start/stop disabled
