MHI stage 2 finally installed

[FL5ghost]

Hello, I finally installed my MHi stage 2 turbo, PRL Flex fuel kit, and XDI HPFP/1400cc injectors. Even on 93 octane. It’s an immediate, dramatic difference. Not only is it fast, but it feels alive now. The one downside is Hondata doesn’t support Ethanol tuning for the FL5/DE5. In the meantime I’ll be patient. If any of you are on the fence about doing this setup, I'll follow up with you guys in a few months to let you know if it was worth it.

Forgot to mention my intake manifold has been ported.

Who has tuned the car so far? Also with the XDI HPFP did you drill the HPFL line as well?

Awesome but please get a proper camera mount and keep 2 hands on the wheel.

Anonymous performance K20C1 has tuned the car. Yes, the fuel line has been drilled.

Welcome to the club! I have 2 customers that will be installing their new turbos soon also.

Drilling the fuel line sounds very strange. Can someone enlighten me the reason behind it instead of getting an actual one that works?

Update your Hondata, they just released support for FLexfuel.

I saw but is it supported for The PRL flex fuel kit V3? My tuner said it may not be compatible.

It’s a voltage based system so any brand sensor should work unless the sensor is bad. Also the ethanol tables were enabled about 2 patches ago but they kept it quiet.

I need moral support to install the injectors, its way back there and I don’t want to do it.?

Well, this is great to hear. So I'm assuming Hondata has the calibration setup? and as of right now I can tune my car for Ethanol?

No calibration setup you have to do you self, but you can’t work with the flex fuel sensor yet since the pid for using ect2. But you can absolutely tune for ethanol right now by mixing as accurately as possible and playing with the fuel tables. Workaround for Flex fuel still not being enabled in the software. Hondata just added more tables but no way to interpret the sensor as of yet.

The only fuel line you can buy as an upgrade is one that someone else has drilled. It's a pretty easy thing to do yourself.

Is there anyway to drill or replace the line without pulling the intake manifold on the FL5?

It’s extremely tight and difficult. Intake manifold has to be removed.
