Is the 10th gen coupe quicker than the sedan version ? I test drove 2 10th gen Si sedans 2017&2019 and they both felt slow in 1st gear but the 2018 si coupe I drove felt a lot quicker in 1st gear in pulled me back into the seat
@@Dimelowcrew I recently posted a vid on my channel also doing some bullying myself but on a frs lol. I had to record him from the radio console view of the side view mirror camera cause I knew it was gonna be a gap 😂
bro i love your videos so much, please do not stop doing them. Im planning on getting a 10th gen in about 2 months, hella excited, unsure abt getting a coupe or sedan
Nice man! I’m sure you’ll like it a lot. I like the coupe body style more, the back space isn’t that bad neither. At the end of day it’s personal preference.
Ok...thanks .....205 hp for 10th gen right? 11th Gen is a slight downgrade. It needs some serious upgrades. It's long overdue. They uptick the Civic to 200 HP for 2025 refresh. 2025 Si should go at least 225 hp.
@@timothylee2772Yea the the 10th gen comes stock with 205hp. Mines has 350whp. I agree I feel like they messed up with the 11th gen Si, it should’ve came with at least 220hp.
@@Dimelowcrew My Accord dyno a little higher than the Si. I wonder if it's because of the VTEC in my L15 version. 199-200 whp stock dyno what does your car dyno at stock?
@@STG6_Phearable Yea these L15’s are actually underrated from factory. The Si’s dyno at around 195ish whp so realistically it’s making around 220hp to the crank.
fun to watch, currently own a 10th gen civic as well, mine is a Touring Sedan. I'm going to be buying a Type R in a few weeks though, my first manual car.
They’re both good, it’s really personal preference. I personally got the short ram because I was scared of it one day sucking in water and then hydro locking with the cobra lol
@@kidstarr100I would do intake and intercooler first. For the intercooler you don’t need charge pipes since you’re on stock turbo. Then I’ll do the downpipe/frontpipe.
Got an SI 2020 as well, are u nervous about blowing up the L15 with the bigger turbo and E? I am thinking of building the engine then upgrading the turbo down the line
Not really nervous of it blowing up. If you have the proper bolts ons and a good custom tune you should be fine for a while. They’ll hold a lot beating. I’ve seen a lot of people mod these cars and always complain about it being a terrible engine, those are the guys that run ots tunes forever and never get a custom tune. Ots tunes are only good as a basemap to then get a custom tune after.
I wouldn’t recommend going full E85. With this set up on E30 you’re already at 350whp. With full E85 you would be around 400whp and thats not realible, being that these engines are so small and aren’t great at making a lot of power. Unless you have built engine then you’ll be good, if not I would stick with E30 if you don’t wanna run into issues.
I been thinkin bout pickin up another TL since that’s what I currently own, but it’s an auto. You think it’d be worth it to get a manual one? I can’t afford a 10th Gen atm so I said maybe that’d be the next best thing 🤷🏻♂️
If you want to modify, manual is the way to go. The auto transmission can't take much as its faulty from factory, there's also more aftermarket support for manual
Thanks man I appreciate that! The w2 is a really fun turbo. Btw literally today the car started acting weird, it sounds like a misfire but it can be injectors. It’s throwing a p0354, p006a and p050a, I checked if all the sensors are connected, cleaned the maf sensor and it’s still “misfiring” The air fuel ratio is 20+ and in a cold start it won’t stay on until I give it gas so it could warm up and stay on. It looks like injectors are clogged. All the lights on the dash are on and the turbo won’t spool.
@@kylegentles2270 I checked what’s exactly the problem and yes it’s the injectors. I don’t really see the need of upgrading to the hondata fuel system since the L15 can’t hold no more than 350whp “reliably”
I never get tired of hearing the PRL intake 🤤 lol. Have you ever thought about getting the cobra? Sucks about your limp mode, hopefully she get’s well soon 👍🏼
Best intake for this car bro, and nahh I haven’t thought about getting the cobra I think the short ram with the race maf works fine. Yea limp mode is an issue rn, I can’t do any racing at the moment.
@@alexl.102Damn bro this sucks. Do you have a similar set up as mine? This happened as soon as I tuned it with drob with the 27won w2 turbo. Not saying he’s a bad tuner because he’s a great tuner, he told me it could be spark plugs or a hondata issue. I installed brand new spark plugs (gapped to 0.020) and it seemed to help a little. Today ima install new msd coil packs hopefully that fixes the issue completely.
@@Dimelowcrew no, stock turbo but had the OTS phearable 1.5R tune with CVT trans. I just replaced my spark plugs too and its having some startup issues at least with the remote key. But it did start going limp a while back before that and then I thought it got worse after a few rainstorms we had, which I thought it got hydrolocked cuz I have a PRL CAI. I reflashed back to stock and it's still like this. I had been tuned for about 50k miles, no problems. Going to try to retune it later. Was this only happening with your new turbo?
@STG6_Phearable Werd bro, no stock wrx gapping my Si. For a wrx to keep up with me it needs least 380whp+ and yea K20's with upgraded turbo are insane.
How much power on the Focus RS right now? My brother just got one last month and so far it’s got an intake, 4 inch intercooler, charge pipes, catback exhaust, all made by ETS and a custom tune on cobb accessport, but he hasn’t dyno’d it yet. I’m curious cause I really like the Focus RS too. I actually just posted a video of me and him racing in my evo x on my channel lol
Nice man! The RS is probably making around 340whp on this stage 2 ots tune. If your bro is on a custom tune with pretty much Fbo he should be around 370ish whp and 380-390wtq on 93oct. Last year when my bro dyno his RS it made 370whp (Fbo). This year with the new engine he’s going for 400whp on flex fuel.
I installed the turbo and just drove the car with the tune I had previously on stock turbo to drob’s shop. It’s not recommended to drive the car with a tune not meant for the turbo but for 1 drive I took it wasn’t gonna damage the car.
In this video I was on stock turbo, I spent about $9k for parts and labor altogether including dyno tune but I did install some parts myself. It made 282whp/331wtq.
Yep. Happened to mine last year. 150k on it. It had a slight misfire going home one night and I hit the gas a bit too hard down the road from home and it blew. Flames and all like yours. Windowed both sides of my block. I ended up doing a brand new complete motor (yes, believe it or not on this old ass thing) and added a new intercooler because the old one had too much metal inside. I’ve done a clutch as well. Plenty of work has gone into this thing and it’s in great shape so I figured I’d keep it going 🙄
Same here but the car only had 70k miles 🤦♂️ We also replaced the intercooler, clutch and installed a brand new engine. Currently running a Stage 2 ots tune for now until it goes Fbo (again) then dyno tune it on Flex fuel.
@@Dimelowcrew I think I’ll be going with a tune myself at some point. The goal was to have fun and mod this cause I got a killer deal on it and it was in beautiful shape overall. It didn’t end up that way after blowing a clutch and the a year later blowing a motor. It also has a new fuel pump lol. At this point I’ll just keep it. Great car but these things are a pain!
@@AnthonyTalerico I agree with you, it’s a great car, fun to drive and rare to see. But they are a pain there’s always little issues here and there lol and a tune really wakes up the car.
@@AnthonyTalerico Yea man turbo cars easily gain hp with a tuner. So with Cobb stage 2 you should be around 330hp-340hp to the wheels, but you will need an intake and intercooler. Last year I dyno the car on Cobb stage 2 and it was making 350whp but it was Fbo (Full bolt ons). Then I got an actual dyno tune and it made 370whp/380wtq on 93oct.
