Congratulations! With how hard it is to get these things, definitely a big sense of relief when you get to drive your own CTR home

+1 highly recommend 18x9.5 size, I'm using the enkei triumphs and they work really well and are around 300 each

Dealerships always win

Yes, Normal

Just a PSA, pickup 3 qts of trans fluid as 2 is not enough. Type R takes 2.3 technically. I don't know if being low by 0.3 would cause an issue, but better be safe than sorry

Many on here do, including me

What a pita, glad you got it back to normal though. I probably need to flush my fluid out before this season but posts like this really discourage me from trying

Try to take your type R to a track day, you'll find that it rotates really well for a fwd car. It's never going to be rwd but for what it is, it's very special imo.

FL5 owners are pretty brand loyal imo. We know the gems from Honda only come out every once in a while too .

Aka improving your intercooler

You're fine, once you start driving and open the throttle up, IAT will drop back to normal. I think the intercooler also impacts IATs, as I've noticed prolonged (>1min) wide open bursts results in IATs creeping up.

I wonder if a rear mounted turbo would help things, seems like it's in the perfect place stock to just heat the radiator up.

Check with your dealership

Tesla and s2k is a way better 2 car lineup then CTR and Tesla. Keep the s2k, the CTR will be available for years to come. Unless you're willing to go CTR+ s2k, but doesn't sound like it.

I just found out that my free oil change from my local Honda dealership was with semi synthetic 0w20. Have others experienced this as well? No wonder it's free.... Changing that shit out soon
