Sorry to hear than man, this is why I installed my Eibach Sportline springs by myself along with camber/toe arms. Dedicated a Saturday evening with a pack of beer and wasn’t difficult at all, given you have the right tools! My springs is over a year old and no problems since.
During the...
Appreciate the data! Though it’s barely shorter in height, I think the type of filtration material and design is more important over how much surface area is available. I mean Eventuri’s filter is visually a smaller design compared to PRL’s, yet it still does the job from the testing I’ve seen...
Interesting! My PRL filter is due for a cleaning and was just looking to get a secondary filter. I might just switch to the dry filter, really don’t like dealing with oil for the PRL filter as it’s just an extra annoying maintenance task.
I was looking to buy coilovers over a year ago which costs 3k and it works with the factory adaptive suspension.. But I feel that I wouldn’t be getting the most out of coilovers. Reason being is that I wouldn’t be adjusting or fine tuning it as much as I should since my car is just a daily...
I did notice that the insides of my rear wheels had more wear due to lowering the car, which naturally increases your camber. Wear wasn’t excessive, but still drivable and safe for daily driving. Fronts were doing just fine. When I got my first alignment, it was barely close to factory specs...
Every car is different, but given that you have the right upgrades, gas, and tuner, you’ll possibly hit around the 400-430ish whp range before you’ll start maxing out your fuel system.
If staying with stock turbo, all you really need is an upgraded high pressure line. The opening limits flow...
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think Tomei’s Titanium Exhaust system for the FL5 still has the biggest diameter at 3.2” or 80.5mm.
Anyways, this system sounds good! Clean, deep tone and not too raspy! Excited to see more of this exhaust once it’s released. I wonder if there will be different...
Just trying to build something reminiscent of old school high reving Hondas, since these K20C1’s don’t really have that experience from factory lol. But power wise, would like push my FL5 to around a nice 500-550HP while trying to keep torque at a conservative 450 or lower. I know the clutch can...
Interesting.. From what I hear, XDI has great customer service no matter what the problem is. Also heard they’re very good about the warranty on their pumps if one fails.
So I just got my upgraded R660 AS today, which means I’ll need some supporting mods so I don’t stress out the fuel system for my FL5. In regard to fuel pumps, I’ve heard great things about Full Race’s new HPFP which pushes 68% more fuel compared to OEM. Probably because it also comes with a HUGE...
Currently running Eibach’s Sportline kit with no problems. TE37 SL’s running the “Golden” spec 18x9.5 +45 for a clean, flush fitment with Falken Azenis 275/35 tires. Also running aftermarket rear Camber and Toe arms to dial in the suspension and get the alignment back into factory specs.
Mine is from Ultra Racing. I really like that it’s one solid piece. It’s also designed in a way that it’s not blocking the battery or the brake fluid reservoir cap when compared to other struts out there, as it sits high and towards the firewall. It only comes in white, so it was a no brainer...
Sorry to hear you’re having issues. Currently have TSP’s high efficiency Downpipe paired with AWE’s catback exhaust system, perfect fitment in my situation with no issues. Did the install of both the DP and Exhaust myself (Downpipe first, then Exhaust). TSP’s customer service is very helpful in...
Currently running Eibach’s FL5 specific Sportline-kit springs (1.2 inch drop on the front and .9 inch in the rear) along with TE37 SL’s 18x9.5 +45, perfect flush fitment, with 275/35 on Falken FK460’s. No rubbing at all, so you’ll definitely be fine at stock height.
Experience may vary...
Just recently saw on a Reddit post that a Black FL5 was stolen in NY (Bronx area) this weekend. Owner said it crossed states to NJ and eventually lost track after entering Philadelphia.
I also remember hearing news of a Championship White FL5 that was stolen a few months back, also in NY, but...
Thank you! I actually do have another question in regard to supporting mods.
I have a drop in turbo (R660) just collecting dust in my garage.. haven’t installed it yet because I will be sending it back to RV6 so I can upgrade to their Anti-surge housing / inlet pipe elbow that's in development...
