Interesting. This is essentially an earth grounding kit. I thought these things died in the 2000s.

I had a HKS grounding kit on my DC5 and it did help. Thought I would try the same on the FL5 and to my surprise the car’s transmission is a bit lighter and more buttery and the throttle response is quicker.

Super easy, I did it at the same time while installing an AWE exhaust, front pipe had to came out giving you a lot more access.

Vibrations isn’t bad at all, it’s there, but I kinda like it

Remove the exhaust flap fuse so that it's stuck open. Best first free mod.

Are there any downsides to the flap always being open?

The best first mod is the Hondata base Octane 93 tune, but the best “bang for your buck mod” is the PRL rear motor mount. Why?.. because it has improved the driving experience overall.

- the car feels more stiff
- significantly less jerk while shifting gears
- significantly less wheel hop
- no more rattles from the infotainment system
- significantly less rattles from seatbelt retainers

Not in my experience, no. Some have stated that they feel a little more roughness at initial takeoff, but there's no concrete evidence to support it.

I'm confused as to why a stiffer RMM would result in less rattles. I would've thought it'd be the other way around?
