Thanks again for the invitation! It’s always a pleasure to come out to MAPerformance!
Not sure by look on ur name are u hmong...just wondering but awesome civic type R bro👍👍👍
@@JohnnyTY I am Hmong! :) thank you!!
@@ddoouuaa ok kool brother...👍👍👍
Our pleasure! I'm sure we will be seeing you in the near future... 😏
@@maperformance just wondering i been looking into ur website but i don't see anything or much for 9th gen civic si
the si coupe with all these mods would look way sick, amazing type r tho looks like a beast
It sucks all the good mods went to the Type R/ base & sport hatchback & not the sedan or coupe
Number one best looking fk8 type r in Minnesota he actually lives near me
Nice video I got mine for 32k with 13 thousand miles. After this video I checked how much I can get for my car 45k it's crazy 🤪, but I am not selling my bab I love this car.
Right on!
Wallet will be deeper if you k20c4 swap a Si or sport that has a 6spd manual. That’s the route I’m going and I have the tools and tooling to avoid buying over priced parts for the 10th and 11th gen civics and honestly having the skills and investing in tools is the best route to modifying any car!
Bottom line, just do mods you enjoy. There are always going to be haters no matter what you do. I have stock FK8, it's fun. More fun that my heavily modded, 400 whp 2011 STI was by far. Yeah, that's right Subie fanatics. But, but, but no AWD. Yeah, that is included in my assessment. It's a pleasure to drive in almost any circumstance.
But I've yet to see a video mention that you can easily spin the tires in 2nd, stock. You'll be way over the speed limit to put down any extra power on the street. Actually, you'll be over the speed limit regularly just by owning it. This car readily and easily goes reckless-OP fast in stock configuration, so you'll never get a sh%$ton more power down unless you track it . But if you just want to drive like a jerk on your commute, like I do, this does a bang up job. And you'll need new tires/wheel. Ain't no free lunch with this car either.
Beautifully said! Amen!
it's because it carries speed so well.
Facts I got of out a hellcat to get one of these two weeks ago and that second gear do have the wheels chirping if you get on it hard enough
I personally was hoping that you had another bottle and was really looking forward to seeing you get lit doing shots again. 🤪
Maybe the next video! 🤣
I wouldn't say you're way off but...you're not in the same ballpark with real cash spent on this shit. Add at least 25 percent to everything. And consider those who need to hire someone. Also your mild build needs Hondata.
Great video! I actually have a big plan on spending 3k plus on black Friday for my mods bc I just picked one up!
We will be your plug! Tons of deals in the works!
Awesome 🔥
How much hp would you think the mild list adds to stock type r
I just recently became a Type R owner, but I do not plan on doing hot boi sh*t until I've got another reliable daily. For the next coming years, I am planning on keeping it Mild asf. I mainly wanna do the intercooler, wheels and tires, shorter shifter, and an aftermarket shifter. I dont really need many of the other mods simply because I dont plan on Tracking it yet till its paid off haha...
oh the 45k one is jonny's honda. He's been trying to sell that car forever, but tbh the mods he has is pretty good. If someone is looking for a Type R that already has all the basic mods most owners would get and also had the cash then that would be a good deal
Great video 🤯 can you guys please do GTI next??
The Graphics on ( SIGN )sure it would be if I had to show off my ride with Looks, I will be enjoying the work I put into it.
Lol @ coming across Jonnys_honda. You’re not just paying $45k for a well built car, but the FK8 that started for a lot of companies. A piece of history!
I'm pushing the hp level of my fl5, the parts I'm waiting for I have ordered, and then I'm waiting on parts that need to be released still. But all said and done I'm looking for 550 to 600hp as my end goal. But that's with, intercooler, front pipe, downpipe, titanium inlet pipe kit, Cai box, p700 turbo, hondata flashpro, and as im typing this I'm pieceing together my fuel set up.
Tell me your parents have money without telling me they have money.
We’re going with an exhaust.l after some audio upgrades. We’ll be uploading some videos soon, and of course we’ll buy them from MAP!
Can't wait!
Finding a type r for under 40k with under 10k miles is very hard rn. Got a couple buddies tryna get one but that shit is expensive. I luckily found one w 3k miles for 38k and I love it
Is there other cars they are looking at?
@@mrhades6420 my one boy has a fa5 he wants to keep it. And maybe get a type r or Audi rs5 or 3. My other boy jus wants a type r. And my other boy wanna get an s2k and build his rsx
@@Aj9y those Audi's are getting slept on.
These prices are crazy I got a 19 with 5k miles for 42 a week ago I consider myself lucky finding that compared to what dealers was asking for ones with 5x the miles on em
Found one for 35k 2018 with 24k miles
Plan on going fbo w flex fuel and tune. Should be pushing around 400hp which I’m fine with considering it’s my daily
I think you’ll be higher than 400
@@NNEfilms 390-420 I’ll be fine with
That’s what I told my self just ordered turbo and hondata fuel system 😭
@@user-cd3hd1ob5m 😭😭 fast boi now
Youll want more - especially since fuel system is bolt-on and will take you to 450whp - then youll be a drop in turbo away from 525-550whp
I want that splitter and red defused !!
First mod ECU!
Great video, I think the front splitter and aero stuff on the guys FK8 are a bit much. Just my opinion though. I like to leave my cars looking close to stock, but make them crazy fast. Imagine if he had used all that money from the aero on go fast parts. His Type R would definitely be a beast!
If he’s a time attack driver then the aero is definitely needed. I doubt it’s actually designed with fluid dynamics in mind so it’s probably as waste in this case lol
hes a bit extra tbh
I these year of honda civic i wouldn't change the outside only the inside engine specs and mod specs the car is a beauty as stock or the exterior design
Always watch you i am big fan
Thank you for the support! 💪🏻
What about transmission upgrades for that kind of power? 12k miles on mine and I get the 2nd gear grind on occasion so I stopped put mods in until I can get that under control.
Its a common issue unfortunately
Mine had the same issue just try not to slam it in 2nd and it’ll reduce the chances of grinding
needs better gears if i rebuild mine thats what im doing.
@torqtoolbox made a good video for a possible solution

The build cars that you never going to own is me!
Do genesis coupe bk2 2.0
I can't wait to get promoted as a shifter at UPS because I really want to upgrade my 2021 forte GT.
I want a slightly wide stance with carbon roof,fenders, trunk and hood
with a perfect 500whp with AWD👌
I'm guessing it'll cost me around 15 to 20k, IDK lul I'll like your guys guesses on how much It'll cost me.
Bruh no
@@silvy3047 it's a dream that most likely will never come true
@@silvy3047😂😅
Legit question no one can seem to answer. I have the Coated PRL inlet pipe with heat tape. Why would you want to heat wrap it blanket your inlet pipe when you're trying to get heat away from it and keep it cool? I would think the heat wraps and blankets would keep it hot
I believe it is to stop the heat from the turbo and downpipe which are nearby from heating the inlet pipe up even more
@@eduardoalfonso8521, I would think it helps for a bit but once it gets super hot I would think the wrap or blanket would at that point keep it hotter longer. Only asking because I'm trying to figure out if I should blanket mine
@@thinkforyourself5672 I agree with you there , and that is part of the reason I’ve chosen not to do it on mine
@@thinkforyourself5672 Maybe the operating temp is not high enough to heat up the blanket enough that it hurts the setup.
Art of attack ! Great place for FK8 parts !
We also have all the parts as well! 😏
Dam. Why that white FK8 running a BOV ouch
It's never ending...
Cars are forever!
Buy a type r to buy more aero kits.. I’ll just stick with the mugen parts
First mod, hondata flashpro, then get everything else.
Not a bad strategy!
Deffenly only rims tires and exhaust. For me that’s it
I want one bone stock!
TLDR - The cost is priceless.
hello, sorry for the question. I have a hyundai genesis 2.0 automatic and I want to add more power, for example 400hp, how much money do you think I can get to have that power?
More than you can afford pal
At that power level the transmission will be a huge liability. Give us a call at 651-348-8811 and we can talk more about your options!
I want 500hp and am pretty sure I'll have to upgrade my transmission. It's a dry DCT unless I swap it to the wet DCT that the N models have.
Cant tune it without Hondata/Ktuner, so add $900 to that list you showed.
Now the minimum is 42k!!!!
His car is built as fuck. Stock internals are good for around 550 WHP as shown by Redstar automotive. That can handle all the mods he has and you can still throw in a drop in turbo, tuned for e40-e50 he should make about 530WHP
Good to know 👀
First I just have to find the car
This is why I was never willing to spend 40000 plus for a Type R the cost just does not justify the means or end. Yes its great for what it is right out of the box but to get it to higher levels the cost is way beyond what you would be willing to spend. Instead I just built B16B CRX and for 8500 dollars the thing Rips and has all the looks and performance to go with it old school is lightweight and its hard to beat that. I mean seriously. You cant make 11 seconds that easily but its possible I did and it rips. Sorry guys the prices of today are outrages. Instead of that I bought a Nice TLX Type S sedan that looks and feels the part. Much better spent 60000 grand in my opinion. To each there own. This is where the price points start to really matter. For that money we want alot of more in it. Luxury and performance reliability. That cost. To be fast is not cheap to be fast and Reliable is def going to cost you arm and a leg. Think 911 Turbo or NSX not cheap folks and you want something that last.
We just picked up a TLX type S today... some awesome stuff on the horizon for that platform!
@@maperformance Cant wait for that to come alive. Ill be looking out for that
lol
533whp/431wtq with bolt-ons - for way less than 60k

🤔 I wonder wat mine worth 19 ONLY 4500 MILES ON IT
Dopamine
My build might be in the 'nuclear' category
Oh, most definitely!
Can’t you just buy a brand new type from a dealership with little to no miles?
You can, but dealers are charging 5-10k over MSRP!
So basically you saying sell the oem k20 and do a budget turbo k24 swap and save money 🤔🤙
That would be a lot of custom fab work... $$$
I’m person #3 hahaha
Nothing wrong with that!
Mugen or Spoon builds costs?
😅😅😅
A pretty penny thats for sure!
I love Honda’s, but camber builds and giant triple front lips (like this) make me cringe.
Agreed
Yeah, but in this case the splitter serves a functional purpose with it being a track car
It’s a track car. You add as much camber as you need. Usually almost all track cars are running on avg -3 camber. Everything on this car is functional
It all comes down to getting seconds off your lap time!
@@maperformance can't he widen it just a slight bit? That's what I want to do, slight wide stance.
I’m FBO mild build and I have left the exterior and interior bone stock. Car is to beautiful to tear up lol. Will never sell this car it’s in absolutely blast to drive.
Right on!
With $40K, the used Porsche 987.2 Cayman S is a better option in opinion as the Porsche has a much superior chassis with being mid-engine and with the best sounding flat 6 engine ever.
Dude spent all that money just to make a good looking car look hideous 🤮 Talk about overkill!
Oh yea I love seekers fk8
Who wants to bet that background is fake?
Define fake! It’s a light painted photo I had set up in our shop of our cars. But the video was shot on a green screen and the image is put behind me!
Shouldn’t Tuning have been the first mod
Many people wait to tune until they have installed FBO. That way you don't have to pay for a tune twice!
@@maperformance go with Jon Vega from pherable. First tuned my R at exactly 1k miles with his tune, and he’s sent me an updated tune with every bolt on.(had his tune on my si for about 40k miles)
You mean how to ruin your type R.. smaller wheels that's it..
Fbo = ruining your R? lol
