egxflash replied to the thread FL5 HKS SSQV BOV release date.Gotcha. The question just seemed like it was asking about potential downsides of the FL5 BOV which is the point of the original post. -
Yes.. I already know that it’s coming with a recirculating kit. HKS already knows it’s needed for this platform since they made one...
-
egxflash replied to the thread FL5 HKS SSQV BOV release date.I'm pretty sure this kit that's being released at the end of the month has a recirc and isn't vent to atmosphere, thus not subject to...

egxflash replied to the thread FL5 Type R: PPF Poll???.I have full PPF on my DE5. I don't think it's worth the cost, honestly. Would go for just partial moving forward.
-
It's already got a big wing, my might as well make it sound like it has a big wing.

egxflash replied to the thread FL5 HKS SSQV BOV release date.Y'all are lying to yourselves if you're around 40 and think you don't need this!

Good one! LOL Not that there's anything wrong with that, LOL. (in my best Jerry Seinfeld voice)
-
Don't talk about tariffs then it'll remain civil. 😂
-
It always starts with one prospective buyer asking for opinions. Then it usually deteriorates into a Type R vs Type S Civil war, but...
-
Kinda reiterating, but in the end to Joe shmoe, a type R is just a civic and any old Integra looks like a nicer car. I can say with...
-
It's more that in addition to being a better car, it's a symbol of Honda's motorsport heritage. The other is just another Acura trim.
-
I'm just gonna stop engaging, I never said a heavier spring was better. I said I like it how it is, not gonna argue a moot point I don't...
-
For you, the removal of the spring makes the clutch feel better, for many here, they really like how the clutch feels and don't want to...

Kind of funny when I constantly here inexpensive wheels get picked on for quality. I work at a dealership, and we sell a lot of no name...
-
Perfection for me would be a Blue ITS with Type-R interior, ITS exhaust, FL5 forged wheels, ITS stereo, R+ Gauge cluster, and a wing...
-
Might be minority here, but actually prefer the full on side profile of the DE5 over the FL5. The lines just look better and less bubbly...
-
egxflash replied to the thread CTR vs Type S.Yep. Not a dig at the type R at all. I think it's still a great looking car, but a lot of people on here have got it on too high of a...
-
egxflash replied to the thread CTR vs Type S.I would've said that for the FK8, but to me head on, most average people wouldn't think much other than another civic.

If talking about a badge in a bar is important to you, you made the right choice.

egxflash replied to the thread CTR vs Type S.This topic has been beat to death a bit so some searching on here will give you a bit more info. Given this is the FL5 forums, you'll...

egxflash replied to the thread Borla ATAK Exhaust for FL5.So I've had it for about a year now (though to be fair I still barely have 5k miles on the car). I think it sounds great. The stock DE5...
-
Because it is completely unnecessary. The FL5 out of the box has a better manual shifting + clutch experience by a country mile than...

I drive an FL5, and even if I didn't, my point still stands.

egxflash replied to the thread 2026 FL5 Speculation Thread.I got no problems with a hybrid if it was still performance-oriented (ie good power, manual transmission, great handling).

egxflash replied to the thread Eventuri or Infinity Design?.Man, any tips??? It was such a PITA for me to get everything lined up that I was fully counting on just taking the ECU off to service...

egxflash replied to the thread What did you do to your FL5 today?.this looks inspired by the DE5 steering wheel.

egxflash replied to the thread Eventuri or Infinity Design?.you'd have to do that with anything that has a snorkel no? I wish there was one that had a door at the top that you can open up to...

That's what I did. They break before popping out.

egxflash replied to the thread How to remove fender tabs?.Just pop out the middle (in red below) and the entire tab should pop out easily. You can use a thin flathead or use trim removal tools...

The 5" catalyst we use is rated for up to 1000whp. It's the same one we use in our 577whp FL5 with the Kuro+. 🏎

egxflash replied to the thread 400 WHP Build with Headroom – Smart or Pointless?.what about if it's a catted downpipe? Looking specifically at the @Two Step Performance high efficiency dp.

How about you guys actually give us some reason to want to shop with you, or make your website actually function better to find parts...

egxflash replied to the thread SoCal Spotted Thread.wow that yellow looks great. This almost feels like a Target parking garage - where was this?
-
well, it took 2 1/2 years, but finally wrapped the roof black like I always wanted it.

egxflash replied to the thread FL5 HKS SSQV BOV release date.Ah gotcha. Yeah, I grew in the late 90s/early 00s so I got a soft spot for that sound.
