Thanks for adding your car. Agreed. So many people think a tune is nothing but added power. And while it of course does that, it also improves the driveability of the factory tune in other ways.

Basically the same if you stay out of boost.

I didn't realize the 11th gen 1.5R tune allows for enabling/disabling early spool.

Guys, don't forget to add your tuned Type R's to our tuning reliability thread. https://www.civicxi.com/forum/threads/the-tuned-11th-gen-experience-reliability-thread-for-all-models.50251/

Most 10th gen Type R owners wind up tuning with Hondata. It just seems like Type R's are a big priority for Hondata more so than KTuner. Matter of fact (I could be wrong) I don't know if KTuner even currently supports the 11th gen Type R.

Great to see updates like this.

Every tank is generally fine. To be extra cautious just do one gallon E85 per tank of 91. I don't know of any cases where this created problems. If you're not comfortable doing this, stick with straight 91. The higher knock control won't hurt anything, just reduce power a bit.

I really appreciate the kind words. Thanks for adding your car. Great choice on the 1.5R. One thing to mention. If you have access to E85 adding a little over a gallon (maybe 1.5 gallons) per tankful will get you close to a 93 equivalent and improve/stabilize your knock control.

John is the man. Not only a fantastic tuner I car "Mr. Smooth Tune", but a really good guy too.

It would be nice if more tuned owners would add their cars.

Thanks for the update. :thumbsup: It's really important for our long term reliability stats.

Thanks for adding your car. Phearable tunes are excellent. Consider one of their "revision" tunes. John will dial in your 1.5 tune to work even better with your installed bolt-ons. Not quite custom but a step up from the off the shelf tune. Well worth it for $99.

You can, but honestly I wouldn't do it. To be truthful, I don't recommend non-pros self tune at all. It may "feel good" with timing advanced like that but did you adjust fueling as well? There's more to it then just "cranking the dial up". Do it wrong and things break.

First CTR in the thread. :thumbsup: Thanks for including the dyno.

If you're seeing .49 knock control with your 91 octane gas on your 91 octane tune, you're golden. If you're seeing some elevated k.c. numbers --- 93 (or a gallon of E85 per tankful) will stabilize knock control and give you more consistent power. Remember, not all 91 is created equal. Some...

It can't hurt and will certainly give you more consistently lower knock control numbers.

If it's just a new issue, it could simply be a bad batch of gas.

What everyone else is saying. Dynos are a tool but there are a ton of environmental variables including the machine, the operator, ambient temps, humidity... on and on. The bottom line here is that you're basically getting another 70 WHP compared to your previous setup with just a tune and...

Thanks for the update. Just a reminder to all tuned 11th gen Type R, Si, Non-Si 1.5T and 2.0 NA owners. It's really important to add your car here so we can study 11th gen tuning.

I'm trying. JR asked me to consider doing this so I did.
