Ground can go to any of the chassis bolts closest to your "gadget"

Thanks for the review and link to the carbon console! These are on sale (27% off) right now...so naturally, I can't resist and had to ordered one :D Looks like they (TakeTwo) are just drop-shipping this directly out from the factory in China even though they're based in Australia. We shall...

In your case, that is NOT drone that you're describing. It is the nature of the louder exhaust. You're just hearing the exhaust more because it is louder. Drone is a resonance frequency or frequencies at certain engine RPM range...sort of like wind buffeting when you only open a front window...

Forget about all these naysayers! White wheels on Champion White Type Rs are classic! Good luck keeping them clean and looking white, though.

"Comfort" mode only help if the valve is active - there's no difference in sound if you pull the fuse (valve is fully open). Also, people often get confused on what actually controls the exhaust valve. "Engine Sound" controls the fake interior sound. "Engine" mode is what actually affects the...

OP - Modding is such a personal thing. Just pick what YOU like. It doesn't matter what anyone else think. At the end of the day, you are the one who's going to live with it. You don't have to justify it to anyone. With that said, I vote gloss since it brings out that 3D effect of the weave...

Agree - I'm wondering if there's an exhaust leak if it is indeed droning?

Volume wise, it's very minimal between the two cars. I would probably place it between 5% and 10% at most. You should try pinging @BJHNG as it was his car that I'd listened to that helped me decide. He did his in stages...so is more knowledgeable on the subject. He started with only the...

I left my front resonator in place and only removed the middle larger one - absolutely no drone to my ears. I've played with letting the valve do it's thing (running in +R engine mode) or pulling the fuse altogether - neither produced any drone. I've also listened to another car with both...

Looks like it's just right under the weather strip. OP may be able to "stretch" the weather strip a bit to see if it can be tucked back in place? Either way, look like there isn't enough fabric material on the headliner itself.

That's a legit reason! I didn't do any for the whole year for the same reason and I couldn't find anyone around with the exhaust that I wanted so I can hear it in person. I've learned over the years of modding that exhausts never sounded anywhere near what Youtube videos portray - tone or...

Why not just delete a resonator or two? I just deleted the secondary resonator (the larger one) recently and there's absolutely no drone to my ears at highway cruising speed with the valve still enabled running in +R engine mode. With the valve closed, it's almost stock sounding - you wouldn't...

OP, I would take it in for warranty claim. Worst they can say is no - you'll never know unless you ask.

I believed OP meant the headliner is starting to separate as circled. Honda is taking cost cutting to the edge - literally! They could have just use an extra mm of fabric to prevent this!

If going away from OE tires, I would personally go 275/30/19 to get a bit more contact bite as it's difficult enough to put the power down as is on the 265s. The 275s will net you a bit of sidewall. If going aftermarket wheels on 10" wide, I would even attempt to stuff 285/30/19! 18s don't...

Look for a car produced before May!

Be mindful of the 2026 MSRP. Honda initially did a $1k price hike for 2026 vs 2025. However, I was made aware that Honda just did another $500 price bump on top of the $1k hike starting May 1st. So, my $2k ADM on my 2025 doesn't seem all that outrageous after all.

The S54 was very reliable, but of course you'll have to do the rod bearings and exhaust hub and all the stuffs that Beisan offered fixes, which I did on mine at about 50k miles. If I showed you all the receipts for maintenance on that car, it's not for the faint of heart! The M54 I have and...

It's the opposite here for me. Every single FL5 I see around where I live is CW.

I've owned 2 BMWs from new or nearly new (one for 16 years and one for 22 years and counting) - LOVED driving them, but HATED maintaining them and this was when BMW offered 4 years of free maintenance! There is nothing in BMW's line up today that I would trade my FL5 for. As a matter of fact...
