  3. TSP FL5 - 502whp and counting [2023 Honda Civic Type R Tuned & Modified]

    Can we get an update on your little beast? And can I ask, what is the car like in 2nd gear WOT, can it hook up?
  4. Are these cars actually reliable?

    Well fwiw, Mine had recurring issue with a high pressure fuel pump. and honda stepped up and bought it back from me for nearly what i paid. I bought another type R to replace it, and love the brand more than ever. They are the most stand up company I have ever dealt with.
  5. Upgrading Turbos….more fun?

    it's not really lag boost wise, just they are altering the ignition timing to be less aggressive compared to how hard it could come on, to smooth out the torque curve so it doesnt ramp up real fast down low
  6. Daily fun

    lol, no there are no preventative issues to fix, the only issue to fix is you need to drive your neglected baby.

  11. Looking to buy Type R - considering potential options

    that really is the truth there. it might not make sense on paper always, but how the car makes you feel and how you feel driving it are what matters most.
  12. Looking to buy Type R - considering potential options

    No there isn't a better option. Only because you said you want to keep it over 15 years though. If you just want a fun car to do the things you mentioned, those other cars would also be fun too, no doubt, but if you're in this for the long haul I can't think of a better option at all besides...

    can you make a version that's just flat?
  14. 2026 FL5 Speculation Thread

    wouldnt Honda annonce if this was the end of production though? seems like it could boost their sales really easy, vs just ending it without saying a thing. When the Fk8 ended production didnt they have final editions etc?
  15. Upgrading Turbos….more fun?
