Thank you so much for making this video man . I was thinking about doing a muffler/resonator delete, but now I’m convinced that this is more the sound I’m looking at for my Civic. Sounds sick dude!
Hey bro, I been watching your videos lately! They’ve been really informative and next week here’s hoping to get a cold air intake! Thanks for making them videos man, much appreciated!
Really informative, my uncle wanted to hear that whooshing noise for so long after he purchased his 1.5 turbo sedan in 2020 (Malaysian spec TCP) This really helped him
Hey Chris, found you through Lasfit! Love your content as a CVT owner. I just got an intake and I was wondering why I couldnt get the woosh parked, glad I came by this video!
Uhhhh, doesn’t this just burn up your cvt since the car is in drive? The car clearly wants to go forward, so there is torque on the cvt. I’d recommend only revving in neutral. 🤷♂️
Yo man, is it normal for these engines to sound like a ticking bucket of bolts 24/7? 😂 I genuinely don't think I'd ever be able to tell if my engine was knocking this way
CVT is one gear that simulates an automatic transmission. I'm not sure if there was a "proper" way to use the paddle shifters since there's technically only one gear on the car.
Hey bro I just bought my first civic hatchback and I was wondering the difference between the Street vs Race MAF. Which one will require me to not tune my car?
Don’t know if you’ll even see this but I actually installed the k&n version of this in my car and to answer your question no you do not need a tune. But you DO need a tune to get any horsepower increase. On stock turn with an aftermarket intake you will receive no horsepower gain but hey it sounds dope
Seeing this footage confirms to me how much that engine moves with the stock motormounts. I cannot get this thing to shift as smooth as my Accord (manual). Motormounts, especially the rear, is way too flimsy. Guess ill be ordering that PRL mount... Probably not an issue for CVT, but it is for manual.
Imagine being the guy watching this and then using this technique to flex on people at stop lights for the next several years. Seriously need better content on you tube these days🤦♂️
You’ll only get heat soak in stop and go traffic and hot weather. If you’re really worried about heat soak with a short ram, just get a performance intercooler after, it’ll reduce it significantly.
Do you have any issues with this I installed a JF auto intake from eBay and my car is now making a a weird noise when idling in sports mode and it causes the car to vibrate a bit
You probably installed one that is a non-standard size for the MAF. So because the diameter isn't as stock, the MAF will underreport and cause it to idle poorly. I'd either have it tuned on the new diameter by a reputable tuner, or delete it ASAP...
@@chris_timefk8 Its not whether its cold air intake or not, but you need to check if the tubing diameter is stock or not. That way the MAF will not underreport. It should clearly state if its race MAF or not... If it doesn't, dont buy it.
@@chris_timefk8 Nope, only the later 10th-gens have them. My 2017 EX hatch lacks it, but my mom’s 2020 EX hatch has it. Probably happened at the same time they did the facelift and added the volume knobs etc. inside. The steering wheel and the trim decoration running from left to right on the dash also look and feel different between the two, and hers has power seats while mine doesn’t. (Both are EX!)
Brake boosting is tremendously bad for a CVT transmission. You’re putting all that torque into the drive belt… as soon as it starts slipping, it will only get worse and worse. And the only remedy is a transmission replacement. You don’t rebuild CVTs you replace them.
You're asking for trouble if you keep doing that, This probably the worst advice you can tell people. Just buy ktuner and put a 2 step. Even your car is warning you when u do that smh
Don’t do this. It’s putting unnecessary wear on the transmission and related drive components. Why ? Best on your car for sound that sounds like crap. Sorry.
@@abbas674 the way he has it in park and braking and revving can ruin cvt in the long run not once in a while but I don’t think he’s the one to be worried about that more his audience tbh
Always wondered why when in park the turbo isn't as loud when you rev the car but once your in drive and driving it's much louder, is there a reason for that?
