the noise is very possibly wastegate rattle.
running VP91 (apparently its more strictly regulated for octane level) supplemented with 1 gallon of VP101.
0 degree knock retard on all cylinders. which at this point is just yet another dataset that suggest zero physical damage to the car.
part of the problem may have been dogwater chevron 91.

everything is looking good. still going to replace valve springs, but according to all the data and directly tangible verifications ive done and other people have helped me do up to this point, there is zero damage to the motor and very very little wear.

thanks everyone for your input. looks like there is no issues.

Once you get fixed then you should hit Jester04 up for a tune. Because I'm over 400hp and no torque steer. Also I make sure to be smooth on my shifts. Remember smooth is fast.
So you can tune torque steer out? Or do you have supporting mods for that? I definitely feel it on quick lane changes when I give the car the beans, didn't really have it on my na civic before though

The way Jester04 tunes my car is so the power is progressive. I don't get hit with everything at once. It feels like it's a all motor honda about 3k I'm full boost and it climbs till 7200rpm
There's certain cases where I can intentionally get it to tq steer. This is with long press of traction control off.
