Installed the TSP downpipe. Wasn't bad, no issues with studs, etc. I had help from my good buddy @pointbypatrol. And by help I mean I just passed him tools occasionally. Great to have friends!!

Just sent some logs to @JesterTuned for review and possible tune revision. No extra cost, Love Jester!! Car feels great, little extra power without adjusting tune, and pops and bangs got very aggressive, but now too drawn out. very snappy.

No check engine light either.

Im on the fence because of those studs lol
Did mine like a month ago and the one nut got seized on the top stud toward the head and snapped the stud in half, the other nut came off but took half of the threads with it. Had to take it to a machine shop and they had a difficult time taking out the one that was seized. Asked them if they thought I should have done anything differently and they said "no, the stud material choice by Honda was terrible."

I used heat and penetrating oil which didn't really do shit because it still wouldn't come out. I know it works just fine for some people though so it's really just luck imo.

The turbo came right off though so at least the studs and bolts that go into the head are seemingly way better. Love the TSP downpipe now that it's on but it was an awful experience due to those studs. Also the stock heat shield mounting points on the TSP DP are trash so I had to drill out two of them on the heat shield.

Ha, same on the heat shield! not quite lined up right. Just drilled out all 4 so we had wiggle room.
We started to try to remove the studs once the DP was out and chickened out when it didn't budget easily. So on my car, it was two studs and two bolts. Different from the FL5.

Installed the sirimoto clutch line. Took my time because of the brake fluid.

Easy bleed process with a stahlbus bleeder on the clutch mc. Clutch feels more direct and give some feel in clutch pedal.

Bleeding that line also helped my brakes feel even better. I guess there was some air left in the system.

Did you do the CMC bypass and CDV delete while you were in there?

Yeah, while bleeding the clutch isn't technically required while bleeding the brakes, it's certain wise to do so. Better fluid there makes a decent difference.

Agree 100%!

I did not. I am on the fence with those two mods. I know there is a better feel with the whole clutch package done.
I am just undecided at the moment.

But to be honest.... I was on the fence with the cluth line and I just installed it ?

Swapped my PRL HVI and Turbo Inlet Pipe for Infinity Design matte carbon bits. I didn't like how there were 8 hose clamps and so many joints with the PRL setup vs just one joint and 2 clamps. Looks much nicer now too as a plus.

How was the install process? I've read a few accounts of slight modifications needed to fit.

I did see others talk about the issues and I had the same/similar issues. Doesn't seem to like the Acuity reverse flow hoses and/or CSF Radiator and I couldn't use the forward bracket on the underside or that mounting point. Re-using the OEM EPDM coupler presented some challenge as the openings are different sizes and it was tough to fit the smaller side onto the pipe.

Besides that, the rest was smooth and didn't run into any issues with the hood/opening duct seal like others noted. Didn't expect any improvements vs the PRL HVI but the datalogs show is more efficient and likely making more power.

I already foresee It will be a pain to do the transmission fluid fill in the future compared to doing it with the PRL HVI setup.
