  1. New Type R owner

    Well if you revisit my post. I was sharing info and trying to gather as much info as I can. $20k is not bad for the capability. I am going to continue to step through various parts and once I get done with a bigger turbo then I’ll reassess to see if I want to keep going. Time will tell, I do...
  2. New Type R owner

    Started with some basic mods. All bulbs changed to LED, fuse pulled for exhaust valve. Front resonator deleted and PRL intake installed. Oh and Type R steering wheel trim. Not sure about this one, I may remove it. I am going to slow step through each mod just so I can see the difference between...
  3. Fully built engine

    I really want to keep it NA. That's the main reason why I bought it. Or else I would've just bought a 750s tbh. Type R is my daily.
  4. Fully built engine

    All the cars I listed make power all the way to redline. I've owned a few of those and still own one. Mclaren used to taper off a bit, bigger turbo fixed that. Considering that I am already talking about a built motor. It's a given that necessary changes will need to be made. Bigger turbo, fuel...
  5. Fully built engine

    Because high revving engine is just more fun. GT3 with 9k rpm, my R8 at 8700 rpm or even a McLaren turbo engine over 8k rpm. It’s just fun to wind out the engine.
  6. Fully built engine

    Have you guys seen this? https://4pistonracing.com/collections/engine/products/4p-2-1l-k20c1-race-engine-stage-4 They sell fully built race engines capable of over 1000 hp. Not a bad price either. This isn’t the platform for crazy high HP for me but 500 hp high revving turbo engine. Maybe...

    lol. I guess it’s better than gambling. Some of my friends have lost insane amount of money gambling, like few exotics worth. I’d have a heart attack if that happened to me.

    True True. Nah, I am a working man with an unhealthy fascination with cars. It's a sickness really.

  10. Does anyone have the aFe Takeda air intake installed?

    Interesting. I may just cancel the order then. Which one do you guys recommend? PRL seems a little pain to install.
  11. Does anyone have the aFe Takeda air intake installed?

    Just ordered it on Thursday. Let's see how the install goes. Their marketing numbers look pretty good not sure if it's real.

    Pictures while picking it up. Need to get a wash and take more pictures.
  13. New Type R owner

    Absolutely. Looking to see if anyone can unlock my ECU locally if not then I'll need to ship it out. Thanks! I am already going down the rabbit hole. It's nice to see upgrades at somewhat reasonable prices unlike M tax or Amg Tax. Let's not even talk about supercar tax. Only few hundred miles...
  14. LED Headlights

    I am tempted to try them. Is Morimoto as a company much better?
  15. The FL5 Dealer ADM Markup Thread

    There's a dealer in ATL still asking for $5k over on a 2024. Go figure. I am thinking that most dealers will come down to MSRP but time will tell.
