Any update on this? I'd like to get a custom tune on my car but ideally want to have full bolt-ons before doing so and there doesn't seem to be a legit full intake system for this car other than the super-overpriced GruppeM.
I had the CEL happen twice before I got Hondata and disabled it. Prior to getting Hondata, I bought a 20 dollar OBD2 scanner off Amazon and would clear it.
I contacted RV6 and they said to adjust the defouler by rotating it. Problem is, once the DP is installed you can't turn the defouler a...
No I never got around to making another video. Yeah I had the touring exhaust for about a month before I put on the downpipe. It was a drastic difference. The touring exhaust by itself is very mild. It's like the stock exhaust but amplified by two or so. It's not bad at all, like a 3-4/10...
The warranty as a whole does not just get "voided" because of mods. It works like this:
If the dealership can attribute a modification done to your car with the root cause of the problem you are having, they MAY refuse to cover it. The warranty isn't voided as a whole.
For example:
You bring...
I just installed Hondata on mine. Currently just using the 93 octane tune it came with. I got a free Phearable Stage 2 tune that I don't know if I'm going to install on it. Currently just have an RV6 downpipe and AWE Touring exhaust.
Even with the fairly conservative tune from Hondata, it...
As far as I know, the whole "voided warranty" conception is either outdated or just wrong. If you bring in your car for a repair and they attribute the cause to a modification you have done, then they will not cover it. They don't completely just void out your warranty.
If you put an ECU tune...
Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't the settings saved on the ECU? So when it gets jailbroken, it's going to lose them entirely?
Also, I tried disconnecting my battery to clear a CEL and it didn't reset my settings. I think the ECU has it's own built in hard drive/CMOS.
I have the RV6 and it threw a code about a month into ownership. I bought a 20 dollar OBD2 scanner off Amazon and cleared it. It hasn't came back since.
I'm pretty sure all downpipes have a chance to throw a code, it all depends on the defouler and how far away from the gases it is. If it's...
It's possible that is a 2021 model. As far as I am aware, 2022+ Hondas aren't vulnerable to these attacks. Also, every relay attack I've seen on camera has been the thieves walk up to the front door with signal amplifiers and try to capture the RF from the fob somewhere near the door. These...
For someone to spoof your signal, they would first have to capture it, so they would have to be within like ~3 feet of you. That code is going to expire very fast so they would have to run like hell to your car to open it.
There is also another code that is for starting your car. So this...
Honda has always been ingenious when it comes to engine design but the fact that the turbo is sandwiched in between both the intake and the intercooler, doesn't seem like a great idea.

I went with Tuxmats and I think it's safe to say they are hands down the best option available. I've had Weathertech in prior vehicles and they eventually start distorting and won't form to the footwell, whereas the Tuxmat fits like a glove.
The downside is that you no longer are able to see...
I had the clunking noise after putting on Spoon springs, Spoon rigid collars, and Eibach rear camber arms. It ended up being two things.
First, the subframe was lower due to the rigid collars so the exhaust was slightly banging on the heatshield. Probably not the issue you are facing...
I will likely have it tuned one day but not at the moment.
Also, I was told to tighten the defouler a turn. When I look down at the defouler through the top of the engine bay, there is no way I am going to be able to tighten this thing one turn without it hitting the block. Not sure how I'd...
Thanks, I ordered one. I disconnected the positive terminal and the little ground terminal (not the actual negative terminal) for 15 minutes and it didn't clear the code...
