Tuning your 11th gen is definitely the single best power mod there is. A tune totally transforms the car. But what about long term, every day reliability? After all, tuning does add some additional stress. This thread will document just that as well as owners overall tuning experiences.

If you own a tuned 11th gen Civic help the CivicXI community and add your car to this thread (Si, Type R, Non-Si 1.5T, 2.0 NA).

Use the format below when adding your car:

Vehicle: 2022 Civic Touring sedan

Total tuned time: 7 months

Tuned miles driven: 5,200

Tuning device(s) used: KTuner V1.2

Tunes used: Starter 21 (Stage 2)

Fuel used: 91 octane

Additional related mods: PRL Stage 1 intake

Problems/issues: None

Driving style: Aggressive bursts here and there

Tuning experience notes: Best bang for the buck ever.

At the end of your post you can include pics, vids, timeslips, dragy results and dyno sheets.

Outstanding. That's a seriously big improvement over your first Dragy post.

Any changes in the CVT mode used for that run? Or just D and floor it? Big difference not only in 0-60 but 0-30.

Hopefully we'll be getting some more tuned 11th gen peeps adding their cars here.

This was in Sport mode and launched lightly. Weather was cooler and tires warmed up. Traction control on.

Almost forgot, AC was off this time.

Traction off was just massive wheel spin.

I have my ktuner ready to go. but I’m looking for additional mileage reports prior to using it. With my 2016, I installed after I started to see folks with 15-20k without issues.
