The Tuned 5th Gen Integra Experience & Reliability Thread

OK, I checked out your log and it's outstanding. Fantastic IATs, knock contol is solid, fuel trims are great. You're hitting all your boost targets. Definitely a A+ from me.

Now let's talk about those misfired cylinder numbers.

I don't stop by this forum often so hopefully this is a learning lesson for all. For starters, your engine isn't really misfiring. If you were having any sort of significant engine misfire, you'd get a P0300 variant DTC.

What those misfired cylinder numbers represent are generally just noise events. Unless you see hundreds it's not even something you need to think about. Here's an interesting little tip ...

You had 8 "knock counts" at the end of the drive. Those are those noise events. Now notice you have 8 "misfired cyl" counts? 2+2+4=8. Knock count and the total Misfire cyl numbers are one and the same!!

Concentrate on knock control. If you get a flashing CEL, that's the concern not a handful of knock counts on a KTuner log. Hope this helps.

Thank you for taking a look at it, I was stressin when I saw those misfires recorded lol. But after reading similar questions on other forums and you confirming it, as long as its not hundreds at a time, it is normal. I appreciate your time.

I mean if you see 50+ clumped together in a matter of a few seconds, something might be going on.

You only having 8 on a 30+ minute drive is excellent.

Hey there- long time follower, first time poster here. Curious to hear from folks who went with a phearable 1.5 in their Aspec Tech, then either upgraded or have also driven a Type S.

How did the phearable compare? I’ve been on the fence on a Type S (and drove one briefly), but starting to favor having a more comfortable (paid off) daily with some extra “oomph” over a full track car in disguise with a renewed payment.

I know the majority of folks recommend just sending it for the Type S given clutch, head gaskets, etc. but I’m not looking to put up 300+ hp out of this 1.5. Maybe 250, which seems manageable.

The Phearable 1.5 is a no brainer for a daily as long as you have access to 93 octane. More power than stock throughout, better throttle response, quicker spool. For a relatively small investment, tuning will transform your car's power. Will it be a Type S? No.

Think of it as an A-Spec++. Your smiles per gallon will increase dramatically.
