Hello,
I have been gathering parts to install and want to see if I am missing anything that would make a difference. From my understanding an upgraded front pipe does not do much. I also need to figure out where to get my car tuned from. I am after a smooth and safe tune , I don't track the car at all.

Parts ready to be installed:
PRL intercooler
PRL intake
PRL turbo inlet pipe
Rv6 downpipe ceramic coated
Hondata
Turbo blanket
Small downpipe blanket
Turbo inlet pipe blanket

Get Canflex because it's cheap easy to install and good gains if you can get E85. Front pipe might as well since your doing downpipe and probably getting a a exhaust down the road. Rv6 is inexpensive and great quality.
Then hit up Jester04 and get your shit tuned.

Looks like a great basic bolt on setup, you will have a lot of fun with this! The next step would be a turbo upgrade, but that may be a bigger step than you are looking to take at this point.

I will agree the front pipe would offer minimal performance improvements.

The build as you have it written would be a perfect fit for our TSP Stage 1 Tune for the FL5:

If you were to decide to upgrade the turbocharger at some point, custom tuning would be warranted at that time:

We partner with Derek Robinson (@drobimw) for all of our tuning services and have over 20,000 TSP tune customers exclusively on the Honda 2.0T and 1.5T platforms.
