  1. Cooling mods for the average Joe

    What cooling modifications, if any, do others recommend that would prevent heat soak and prolong the life of parts? I'm that guy who has a tune and a downpipe (on the way) to wake the car up conservatively. I want the car to last and perform well on spirited drives on a hot summer day. The...
  2. Checking for codes with Hondata after mis-shift.

    Long story short. Went from 4-3 when I wanted to go 4-5. Auto rev-match was on, so the engine revved high. I didn’t hear the shift sound you normally would when you rev to redline so I think I’m good. Lesson learned. Either way, I just want to be really sure that I’m good. I hooked up the...
  3. Few odd noises

    I know I know, "embrace the racecar". However wanted to confirm if a few things I've experienced are normal. 1. Metal vibrating noise when going over speed strips or rumble strips at speeds >25ish mph. Sounds like a tambourine. Anyone else? 2. In third gear there is a prominent ringing noise...
  4. TSP Stage 1 while Stock(ish)

    Anyone else running TSP Stage 1 tune with stock engine piping? Pulled the trigger on a Hondata and Stage 1 tune from TSP. I'm probably going to run Map 3 99 percent of the time so I'm not in full boost all the time. Wondering how long I can do that before I need supporting mods or risk damage...
  5. How safe is the Hondata base tune?

    Getting unlocked soon and am looking at the 91 base tune. I’m not trying to beat on this car or push it to its limits such that I shorten component life. More so looking to improve the overall experience of driving the car. That being said, how safe is Hondata’s 91 base tune?
  6. FL5 PRL High Volume Intake (HVI) Temps. Is this expected?

    I'm trying to figure out if the intake temps I am getting with the PRL HVI is as expected. About 55 degrees (F) outside. While in motion intake temps are about +20 to +35 degrees. While at a stand still however, I am seeing temps rise to 105+.
  7. Looking for a reputable shop in DC/Maryland/Virginia

    Any trusted go-to shops for performance modifications, or just modifications in general? Would prefer within Maryland but can do DC or VA as well.
  8. Milltek Exhaust Offerings

    What's the difference between Milltek's exhaust offerings? I'm a little confused so I'm posting here hoping someone can shed some light. From my understanding, Milltek offers three types of exhaust all of which can either be valved or unvalved. 1. Non-Resonated 2. Resonated 3...
  9. Anyone else running a dual resonator delete on the FL5?

    I'm so sick of looking at exhaust videos. Nothing is doing it for me, and I really don't feel like sinking 2k+ on a mid-sounding exhaust. So...to scratch the itch I am thinking of a dual resonator delete. As of today, I can only find one person on this forum and on youtube with this set up, it...
  10. FL5: Odd noise with front Resonator deleted and valve open.

    This is a repost from a reddit thread in r/Civic_Type_R where I didn't get much traction. Hoping maybe I'll get some answers here. I pulled the trigger on the front resonator delete. I figured I didn't have much to lose if I was gonna put a new exhaust on it if I didn't like it. I also pulled...
