There is a YouTuber with a 22 Si. He recommended using microfiber in between the pry tool, and it worked well for me. Slow and steady wins this race to not mar any of the dash material. It’s definitely a little nerve wracking, but the noise was 10x worse. I wish you good luck with yours. Such...

Propose you keep your opinion to yourself. It will be a long term build journal as per forum title, but I’ve only had it a month so far.

Dash rattle fix. 20 minutes of work and a roll of foam tape from Home Depot. ??? Mine was bad. It was a buzzing noise. Noticed it on my test drive with 6 miles on the car, major buzzkill. A month on, I finally did something about it. Attaching pics of where I added the foam. Edit: The pic with...

Paint correction to remove the dealer installed scratches, and then ceramic coating. Two days and 9-10 hours later and I’m freaking tired. ? Process- I have a Rupes LHR21ES and use Jax Wax. 1) Checked if clay was necessary 2) Iron decon to test for rail dust from shipping over. 3) Good wash...

FL5 review in progress- Part 2 I hit break in miles a couple days ago, and decided to really put the car through the paces on some great back roads. I said before that +R in this car didn't seem substantially more stiff than the FK8. Well, that is only true for the highway and straights. In...

This will be my running build journal and photography archive. I bought my FL5 in the middle of April, 2023. I've read a lot of writeups online about the FL5. When being compared to the FK8, the facts that the new car has a ton more rubber, has been scaled down visually, and the track...

Obvious troll in slow Elantra N is obvious.

I’m probably going to be following suit. Mine popped up again yesterday.

That's pretty stout. Any concern of clutch slip with this new smaller turbo? It has a whole lot of torque from until like 4k. Seems like an intercooler and two step custom tune might be the way to fly on this platform.

The FL5 has a crazy rev hang after full throttle lift off during upshifts, sometimes the rpms even jump a bit. The FK8 did not exhibit this behavior. Are there provisions to remedy this issue with the Hondata remapping? If so, does the base map incorporate it? It’s really bad.

It’s 100% not the phone. Happens in the FL5, never ever in our VW.

I had this a few times in a row, but it turned out to be my radar detector placement. I moved it, and no issues since.
