Great stuff, guys! Thanks for choosing us, we appreciate your support 👊
Always a pleasure, much more to come in the future!!
integra's been out for like 2 months and they got all this already?! My Type S is sitting there all sad. Wants to join the club
@@robdswingingcrypto6228 Because it’s a copy and paste platform.
@@EatMyPropwash true. I’m just tired of waiting 😔
So when will this intake be available for purchase for my 2022 Civic Si???
That thing sounds damn good for just the front and down pipes installed. Honda and Acura really did something special with that looped exhaust system they created. Rear sway bar does heaps in terms of body control and rotation on these chassis’s. Highly recommend, but I imagine y’all already have something ordered or in mind :) Absolutely love this build!
Thanks very much!!
This series is making this car more and more appealing as a future fun daily.
This is great stuff guys!
Thanks very much. Glad you like it!!
I don’t care about the hate for the integra, I personally love it, especially with those mugen wheels. 🔥
Most of those haters never realized that the Integra was really just an upscale Civic 🤷♂️.
Its just the Name people hate
The car is Real nice
You end up spending CT-R or GR Corolla money (based on MSRP) for a lesser car.
@@jimiverson3085 not everyone is looking for a track car.
It looks terrible :/ I LOVE this channel and even gotten merch, but it looks terrible. They coulda gone with a sportier wheel. Just make it look different.
I’m in love! You guys sold me on the integra. I wasn’t a fan of the new one but I really like what you guys did with this car. You guys are the best as usual. I’ll keep my 10th gen si just because I’m broke lol.
Hope you can pick one up in the near future. It's a great car
Same 1.5 platform tho, maybe if you upgrade the interior some you can build your own budget integra lol
@@austinwiththef150 yeah I'm not getting a integra. Maybe the type s but I doubt I'll be able to afford it.
@@ahcgaragewhere are you guys located
Damn, PRL mods are awesome for Honda And Acura. Intercooler with “PRL” on lower black front grille looked awesome and “A” logo led looked so cool. Integra sounds amazing with PRL mods! Cant wait to see next video with tuner on dyno. 😁👍
Couldn't agree more. It was a pleasure to be able to work with PRL. We will more video coverage with Tune and Dyno results in the coming weeks.
Great works fellas. I really appreciate you guys for showing most of the install process and giving tips as well. I have the car and finally opened her up merging on the highway and the car is fast despite reviewers making comments that its lethargic but when you shift hard you can feel that jerk from the motor mount. That fact that it's a Simple process I'm going to make that my next mod after a tune
Congrats on the new pickup and hope you are enjoying her. The rear billet engine mount did wonders for us. You should get on the pre-order list once becomes available
Jus got my 2023 Acura integra Aspec edition I must say I love it…
I get mine tomorrow! Excited for sure!
Nice to see new honda/acura still allow room for upgrades
This what makes Acura/Honda a great tuner car
What I love about those after market parts is that they fit just like OEM so everything bolts right up 💯💯💯
Agreed, cheers!!
The wheels... this design is amazing ! As always thanks for sharing your knowledge with us !
@AHC Garage, gawd DANG Mike. I have to say those mugen wheels are freakin sharp! Are they heavy by any chance? anyway sick setup! 👍👍👍
Always appreciate you guys for tuning in
@@battosaijenkins946 Thanks!! They are slightly heavier than the Oem unit due to the large diameter wheel and bigger & wider tires
It's full bolt on time for the Integra! It would be cool to see the improved acceleration, handling, suspension, and quarter mile runs after the installs.😎👍🏿
The things is that once you do that you are up around the price of a CT-R, but still stuck with the 1.5 liter engine as a center piece of the car.
True that .
@@jimiverson3085 hopefully they give us a Type S version
@@ciello___8307 a type S version with the type r motor would be sick! I would sell my Si in a heart beat
Cheers!!
Intercooler doesn’t lower the car temperature, it lowers the intake air making the car produce more power. That power actually makes the car run hotter. To reduce car temps, you must activate the radiator spring earlier and increase the cooling capacity with a better radiator.
That’s is what I meant. Sorry about that. Thanks for watching.
I learnt something new today👍
Great job guys with this video! I love how you show us and explain what parts you are installing and why. PRL is super solid with their R&D and quality. Great choice going with them. I’m excited to drive this car next time I visit you guys!
You can drive me to the restaurant for that burger 🍔 😚
Couldn’t do it without your help, always appreciate you
@@vteckillerfa5 This boy loves his burger 😂
you either die a hero or live long enough to become a sedan
With additional liftback, this Integra is super functional
@@ahcgarage i'm not saying it's a bad car, but that a lot of cars previously known as coupes have been turned into sedans or crossovers in the eclipse's case
Just got my Integra A-Spec last week. This video makes me want to void the warranties 😂🔥
Congrats on the new pickup Daniel. Hope you enjoying this cool car.
@@ahcgarage I really am, it's so fun to drive! Can't wait to see more of your Integra videos!!
It's a shame so much of those parts are buried and not visible because the build quality and overall appearance are great!
We love the OEM+ look
My concern after watching this is long term engine life. Some years ago I had a Saab 9-3 where the down pipe ran down and under the engine just like this. They had a notorious problem for sludging the engines due to the exhaust heat on the oil pan and 10k manufacture oil change intervals. Just food for thought, maybe it won't be an issue here. Great videos keep them coming.
We have yet heard possibly sludging engine due to heat from downpipe.
I would’ve sprayed Painted The intercooler black and put PRL in white she looks awesome guys 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Much thanks!!
With the recently talked about limited availability of the new type R, I'm starting to see a teggy type S in the near future. Great work AHC.
I can only imagine how much more limited the Type S would be. Unfortunate.
@@shibaspeed At this point in time, I can only speculate that there would be many more type S teggy's to sell. Acura sorely needs volume in order to profit.
@@shibaspeed All Type-S models including the MDX and TLX are not meant to be limited. Due to part shortages, it affects the total production numbers. That’s on most manufacturers. Yet CTR is a limited production model, on the FK8, aside from the LE, I believe 6000 production units per year
@@ahcgarage World wide, or 6.000 for the USA? Can you obtain a country by country breakdown? Much appreciated.
Jon actually looks really good in that shirt.
We are all surprised Brian :-)
Thanks for noticing papi
Haven't been a fan of the new Integra, but I still enjoy watching the videos! Hopefully they release a Type S version and maybe coupe!
Thanks for tuning in. Type-S is coming, stay tuned!!
Thanks to AHC for providing the instructions that should have come from PRL. Great job guys!
I want this car and these mods. Beautifully done guys! I hope to use your performance package on my own one day💥
I guess I should have waited until the end. Seems like a big improvement from the factory after bolt ons with the acceleration. Man. I'm all too familiar with transmission & motor mounts. I had all replaced for over 800.00 including labor. Definitely improves your ride quality and protects your engine and transmission from moving a lot, which well cause problems down the line if it isn't fixed
It definitely opens up this motor. More to come in the next few episodes
I can always count on AHC Garage for excellent video footage. Thanks ya guys.
Our pleasure! Thanks for the continued support!!
i fucking love this channel so much
Thank you very much!!
Did all the PRL bolt ons for my 22 Si and my clutch started slipping. I couldn't source anything other than the action stage 1 (20S) and it's rated for FBO +e85. I'm tuning with phearable and we just finished with pump gas so it's finally time for the E30 tune 🌽. So far the clutch has held up well, slightly stiffer than factory but not much and I actually find it easier with more resistance to shift smooth. Nice build hope to see more!
We are seeking to upgrade our clutch as well prior to flex and tune. We will have more coverage very soon.
The best and only Honda Acura channel I would only watch on TH-cam 🙂👍💪. You guys are amazing 👏
Thank you!!
Was not a fan of the integra at all. You have made me give it a double take! Now that I’m in my 30’s I prefer the simple less is more builds over the flashy stuff. This thing is looking like a fun daily and or stylish commuter. Love the progress and love
Your channel. Hope you guys blow up so you can build and donate me a car lol.
Thanks so much. We appreciate you!!
Damn, never stopped being impressed as the video went on. Sounds pretty good actually!
Thank you!!
Well, this got me all excited about my Integra A-Spec Tech.
Congrats on the Integra!!
AHC Garage Thanks! I work at an Acura dealership and I was just waiting for the right color combination to come in.
Love watching y'all do all the stuff I won't do to my 2023 Integra because I'm a scaredy cat lol. Keep up the great work.
That Integra is gorgeous! Honda should have given it the 2L engine from the Accord.
The Type-S will, stay tuned!!
Wow looks like amazing work guys. It's so soothing just watching the upgrades being put on, wishing I can do a bunch of upgrades to my 09 civic Si. Haha. Great job.
Thanks so much!
Nice thing about the stock primary/secondary cat is that it makes it less susceptible to theft! Good job Honda
Question! I have a 2023 Integra A-spec, how much does this specific kit cost? (Everything included in the video)
Like the upgrades. Can't wait for next episode.
Yes, more to come!!
Hi Mike, Hi Jon I hope you both have a happy New Year and 2023 is a good one👍
Sorry I've been AWOL for a few weeks but real life seems to be getting in the way lately and your videos are now much longer so I haven't had a chance to watch them.
Anyway this was a great episode, I haven't seen the other episodes but I'm assuming this is Jon's new car🤔 have to say that these Acura's really amaze me as to the quality of all the components under the hood comparing to where Honda was a few years back the quality of the whole car just looks first class, all the upgrades you guys fitted here seem to have made a big difference to the way the car drives 👌👍John UK.
Happy New Year to you as well. Thanks for the continued support
You got me sold into buying an Integra!
That's great to hear
Masters at work... this is art! Wow!
Much appreciate it
I love it! Always been a Honda/Acura fan. I really hope the Integra Type-S has the 306 hp Civic engine and sh-awd.
You and I both!! The Type-S will be a FWD only.
Great review, where did you purchase your rims. They look great
Looks awesome, you guys are awesome
Much appreciate it!!
Best 40 mins of the day
Thank you very much!! Your comment makes our sleepless night worth it haha!!
oh men those wheels are nice af really. i just don't know why acura didn't put a 1.8 engine turbo but besides that i like the car really. btw great video guys.
What 1.8 they don't make one anymore in North America it's 1.5t or 2.0t
Aswome video. Amazed so much available already. Integra looks way better than the ILX and it’s a nice car👍🏾😁💯
We agree!
🐌🐌🐌🐌🐌 seeing things like this just makes me love the rawness of the ⚡⚡⚡⚡ Elantra n sooo much more
You should go for that
I just came across your channel and wow you have great taste . I just subscribed and I can’t wait to see what you guys do with this integra . It’s coming out really nice keep up the great content and work . 🔥🔥
Welcome to our channel and thanks for the subs along with the kind compliments
Please please please do a before-and-after Dyno.
On its way
Yes, very soon
Wow didn't take long, glad to see it!
Glad you like it. Thanks for tuning in!!
(checks calendar)... The hell they already have mods for the 2023 Integra? PRL is literally from the future!
Yes, we love it!!
The new integra looking way nicer with all those changes !!! 🔥🔥 nice job guys !!
Thank you!!!
Y'all the GOATS keep up the content!
Thanks for the continued support
John is looking a bit streamlined, himself. Looking as good as the Integra. Good job guys! Serious money well spent.
Thanks for the support
Damn it, guys. Now I want the Integra!
Glad you like it!!
Watched every minute! Great episode keep it up!
Much appreciated!
Sounds good even with stock exhaust. Love the emblem. Can’t wait to see what else is going on the car
Thanks 👍
No one wanted to do it, but I’m helping a person gut their stock OEM downpipe/header on their brand new Acura Integra A-spec. We did this to a Honda CTR (USDM) and 10th gen Civic Si downpipe, and it unleashed ridiculously more power than a full catless setup combined. We even ported the inlet and outlet to the gutted downpipe/header.
It does need to be tuned, especially when you run FBO, because of the massive empty chamber that is left when you bash out the huge catalysts.
Gutting an OEM Cat.... That's an expensive mod
@@ahcgarage It sure is.... We will probably eventually get another one from a salvage yard in the next 5-6 years. One will eventually come up. It's probably best to note that this DIY hackjob technique be done in a EMISSIONS-FREE TESTING ZONE. lol
Another person somewhere else on FB suggested to just either gut the topmost pre-cat and to leave the bottom cat (2nd cat) alone. I haven't checked thoroughly, but I'm assuming with these big of catalytic converters, there might not be a 3rd/addition downstream cat (usually only used on V6 engine models).
that's such a cute sized intercooler!
How much bigger you need for a 1.5L?
I like ur work tuned very good I think no need much bravo guys amazing car.
Thank you! 👍
I appreciate all the amazing videos and the details on everything..Im saving up for a acura one day ...I will have one again 🤝💪
Right on! We hope you do as well. You will love it!!
I chuckled 🤭 when you said shoot flames 🔥 out of the exhaust. That would be cool looking though. 👍🏼
You guys do phenomenal work nice and clean factory
Wow, thank you!
That cat and intercooler look top notch 👍
They sure are. Extremely good welds and workmanship. We have been using their products for the past few years, super awesome stuff.
Now thats what im talking about
Cheers!!
Dragy 0-60 and 1/4 mile?
We will have some in the coming weeks
The only thing i dislike is the mugen rim styling
We have more wheel options coming, stay tuned!!
Very cool stuff I love the car my favorite color combo love the quality of the new parts and you explained everything very well good video some lucky owner has a beautiful car God bless 🙌 😀
Awesome thank you!
Not stealing the Cat out of these cars, great job Honda
great video car looks great. can't wait until you guys get your hands on a new tlx type s pmc edition.
Thanks for watching!!
I’m 100% getting rid of my 2017 accord coupe v6 AT for the Teggy 6spd.
Ready to pay $50k for 1.8 ?
@@annakquinn7084 no time soon. 2-3 years from now. When I can get one for 30kish
@@annakquinn7084 it's 1.5😐
@@philipjohn1338 thanks, my mistake…..that makes it even more like a money grabber scheme. What will happen if they drop the 2.0 turbo as a type s? $70k ???
@@annakquinn7084 Then you just buy an Accord with the 2.0T and a 6spd. It looks better too.
please make a change in the Acura MDX type s , like the one in the integra , I can lend mine for those changes and make the video , what a change from heaven to earth , let me know blessings, I loved that change
MDX-S, coming soon. That's a promise!!
@@ahcgarage thanks 🙏🏻 I have an MDX type S. if you want to use it for the change and make the video, what's the state of you, I love your videos
working76 , there are the videos of the mdx type s TiK to. Thanks 🙌🇩🇴
Love this integra content
Glad you are enjoying it, more to come!!
Oh yess thar black em1 🔥 but nice video lots of detail
Super clean work guys !!!!🔥🧨❤️
🤝 Always appreciate the support!!
@@ahcgarage absolutely!!!
Great video fellas. Car is beautiful. 👏🏼
Thanks 👍
Don’t understand why Acura wouldn’t build the car with the better engine mount. Looking forward to the next video though. Great videos!!
The stock mounts do a fine job keeping the comfort level while isolating the vibration from the cabin area
Those Mugen wheels are making me consider ordering a integra but rumors of the Type S may be worth the wait being that it's 40k plus
The Type-S will likely be above $40K
Speechless!
Cheers!!!
how much horsepower gain?
Bugatti levels bro!
Soon come
We will cover that on our upcoming episodes
Great videos boys awesome upgrades & information
Glad you enjoyed it
Can’t wait to see it tuned to see how much it puts down.
@@louKushh 😂😂😂 so salty
Coming soon for those numbers
Sounds great! Looking forward to more!
That's a promise!!
Great Honda SI.
That too
Great video, lots of good stuff here. I’m curious what specialized tools you need to perform these upgrades? I clicked on the links you provided in the description but most of them are broken 😩
Want to see more content for the Integra ! So far looks great👍🏻
Show us the Dyno numbers.
Coming very soon
Yesssss 💪🏽💯💪🏽
Yes sir. Thanks for always tuning in!!
great now it does 0-60 in 6.5 seconds
We will have some testing soon
I think I enjoyed the tools you have more than anything else.😁
Just ordered an Integra and was curious what tint you chose all around the car, love the build!
20% all around. Congrats on the Integra!!
Another high quality job 👌
Thank you!!
Subbed. This is awesome stuff you're doing
so much space for a air to water intercooler
Best clutch is Type R retrofit from Eman
Im making 533/431 with stock Type R clutch - it will hold all your 1.5L power
Thanks for the recommendation
Great content 👌 👏 👍
Question: is there an ecu tune for these cars, that you can use with your cell phone, kinda how bmw uses bootmod & similar other ones 🤔
Keep up the great content 👏
Yes, there are Hondata and K-Tuner. We have done some preliminary base tunes on this vehicle. Here's the link:
th-cam.com/video/O2HpkoPiKkw/w-d-xo.html
Can’t wait to see the type s!
Yes!!
Sounds amazing!
Agreed!!
Hey guys good job on everything quick question putting the prl downpipe did the cel light came on or no just curious…. Thanks for the videos…
