just so everyone knows, PRL just released a new V2 catless downpipe less then a week ago! PRL IS NOW AVAILABLE IN CATLESS AGAIN !! Also, keep up the fire videos tony, you’ll always be the best Si on TH-cam.
Bro thank you much for making a video telling these new civic guys about how these turbo engines work. These guys are quick to throw a blow off valve is it will totally mess up your fuel trim.
Also check out power-stop brakes the evolution 23 I think they are called they are drilled and slotted rotors with carbon ceramic brake pads the front are like $139. And the rears are like $129. I have them on my car for about 6 months now and they stop so much better then the stock brakes and no dust or noise. Just a thought
Stumbled across your channel and honestly this is great content! I have a 6 speed Hatchback sport and it’s a great platform to modify. Keep up the uploads man 💯
really good talk man i have an EX with a ktuner and my prl cobra race intake is coming in this afternoon and i’ll finally be able to run my pherable 1.5 tune with it 🥴
Highly recommend the HKS Hi Flow - Pops and burbles and has a deep tone. I love it with the burned tips that I have. The other mods I have done are black rims, blacked out side markers, and Acuity upgrades to the shifter. Love it. 11:48 the face? hee hee
Got mine a about 2 weeks ago and I can second this comment I'm on stock dp and fp I also just did the acuity shifter cable bushings and I can say I love the shifter more now with just that. I don't think I'll do the full short shifter just the rocker spring and base bushings should do for me
LOVE you videos man, but damn Tony. Every time I see you car, I turn green with envy! That is one CLEAN looking car brother!! I SOOOOO badly need some black wheels on my Si....ugh.... Also, I know it's not a "bolt on", but peeps should be aware of the weak clutch on these, based on the mods they're doing. Might wanna upgrade that puppy before upgrading the turbo!...from what I hear. ;-)
Add a KTuner/Hondata next step should be a BBK IMHO. Easy to go fast/quick this gen. Stock brakes simply don't cut it once you're able to tune. My fave thing since KTuner v2 I've done without question. DIY Genesis BBK/GoodRidge SS lines.
Unfortunately for CARB you’d have to look up what exact part would effect the state you’re in. Catback exhausts in general will be fine. Anything after that will effect CARB
Hey thanks for the video as always great content. You should definitely use a gal of e85 per fill up if all you can get is 91. I have a 2019 si coupe with ktuner and the same tune from phearable (cant spell) and my knock was all over as well but I am in New York and use 93. So on a forum this guy was like use a gal and a half of e85 per fill up and since then knock control is at .49 I am having this weird thing from 3rd to4th the knock sometimes goes up to like .70 but then every gear after that it slowly goes back down to .49 within 10-15 mins of driving. What is your knock like?
My car is weird lol. I’ve been roughly .60-.70 after a pull or 2 but when I drive Normal. (I drive a lot on highway) it goes back down to .49 My last race it was about .84 😐
@@TdaKid yea wierd I’m having the same issue too and I drive to work and home taking the high way but it just started all of a sudden this week other past months have been at .49 and only putting 91 only no E85 when I do pulls on streets just goes to .59 and goes crazy like .54 and then after couple min driving goes to .53 then down all of a sudden
How much quicker did the downpipe make your car? I have prl intake/intercooler/tune currently and getting a prl catted downpipe installed Monday and I'm super excited
I know I'm going to get flamed by blind followers, but I added a TurboSmart bov and nothing detrimental has happened to my car in the last 15k miles it's been installed.
If I get Hondata, PRL: short Ram intake, front pipe and Intercooler (using stock piping) how much HP on 87 octane tune vs 91 octane tune? They say the intake adds 15 HP but there’s no way even if pared with a tune.
Thank you for mentioning base model and sport hatches too I’m looking into getting hatch and wanted to know if I could get these mods on a hatch that’s not an si
hey bro, what clutch you looking at? I am fbo without upgraded turbo inlet pipe and bigger turbo. I also am holding off installing my prl flex fuel until i upgrade clutch. I’m located in Bay Area.
I was thinking to get a PRL intake with Hondata tuner. I actually don't want the exhaust. I also want the community to recommend and tell me what to do lol
2020 si. I currently have a short ram but I’m looking to change it to the PRL cobra intake, invidia exhaust, Ktuner, and my RV6 Downpipe and front pipe are arriving in November
Good video brotha! 🔥🤙🏼 I have a Full bolt on Si Fc1 2020 Blue All PRL and with the Flex fuel kit running phearable Tune with a type r Clutch no issues Loving it ! PRL big turbo is all I'm missing
Thanks for all the awesome info! I also live communist California , what exhaust and down pipe are legal to run here ? Well Will pass smog in 2026 ? When I have to get a smog certificate. Thanks.
You won’t pass smog with anything that modifies your cat (aka Downpipe) Any exhaust passes so long as the cat isn’t touched, thus being called “Catback exhaust”
For the phereable tune, since I don't have 93 oct out here in Los Angeles, I read that you can mix a gallon of e85 and 91 oct. Would I need a flex fuel kit for this?
I have a 17 with full bolt ons and I have a flex fuel kit that I haven't installed yet until I get my new act clutch installed . What's a fair price for clutch install ? I was quoted about 1000$ . Does that seem about right ? Let me know if anyone has any input on the subject . Thanks
Umm what do you suggest for tunes I'm about to buy a ktuner v2 and don't know whether to go Tsp or Phearable. Edit I also live in PA about 2 hrs away from D Robs business innovative motorworks if I end up getting a custom tune.
They are both great beginner tunes for off the shelve. So long as you do the stage 1 tune for either or you’ll be fine. Buy the ktuner from either one of their websites so you can get a free tune
Phearable all the way. Just be easy on her until you get the clutch upgraded. That's the only reason I traded for a Type R. I didn't want to dump $3000 just to spend even more to add very minimum power gains. The Type Retrofit Clutch was the only one I would spend money on and they're very hard to get
@@repinrs, I traded my Si for a Type R lol. But If I had kept it the only clutch I would have bought is the Type R retrofit kit. I talked to Derek Robinson about tuning my car and he said let's talk after you replace the clutch with the Type R kit. He didn't even want to tune the car with the stock one knowing what would happen
@@TdaKid it bolts to any standard downpipe and it sounds great. Fit is like oem. BTW I really like your channel we think a lot alike about the 10th gens. I dont have a channel I make videos kind of for myself but I have one of my Si I recently uploaded with the exhaust and enkei wheels if you want to see it.
@@DatDudeCody, I've had an Ex, An Si and a Type R in the last year. Parts are more readily available and there are more options for the Si. If you want to mod an Ex or Sport no one is stopping that. But you might as well get the head start the Si will give you. You're starting at 25Hp less on the non Si as well as the other upgrades you get. The fact you have an Ex at 270 without the clutch slipping badly is a christmas miracle. Unless you have an Automatic. There isn't many Honda guys that will tell you to Mod an EX over an Si if you have the choice
There’s plenty of threads online explaining it from vitviper, Drob, Jon Vega and a lot of other tuners on this platform stating it will over boost , run too rich, mess with our AFR etc… Our cars recirculates the air flow. It doesn’t need to be released into the atmosphere. Yes there are a ppl out there vouching and stating that they’ve ran it in there car for 50k miles plus blah blah blah. But then you’ll notice alot on the FB pages and forums that ppl that get a BOV, end up trying to sell it.. I don’t know jack about the science in the car but I’d rather listen to the guy tuning my car vs a guy on the internet.

I had an 8th gen si (k20) in the past thanks for posting new to the civic turbo game. Thinking of getting the 10th gen
Dedication, even in the work clothes aha!
I just got the PRL intake with the turbo inlet pipe and boy I could really feel a difference, glad I got both, plus it looks really nice too!
did you need hondata for that ?

The first thing you should upgrade on the 10th Gen Civic Si is the intercooler.
I live in Orlando, FL. I have the PRL cobra cold air, never hyrdolocked. Rains once a day, severely floods a couple times a month
ARK Touring Exhaust is perfect and comes with front pipe already
Stumbled across your channel and honestly this is great content! I have a 6 speed Hatchback sport and it’s a great platform to modify. Keep up the uploads man 💯
Great video! Question.. for 27Won Race MAF. Do we need a custom tune or a normal K tune?
I have an invidia and it sounds so good
really good talk man i have an EX with a ktuner and my prl cobra race intake is coming in this afternoon and i’ll finally be able to run my pherable 1.5 tune with it 🥴

not related to bolt on, but what happened to your avs visors? i was thinking about getting them, but i noticed you dont have them on anymore :o

I was able to buy a cat less down pipe by rv6 here in California recently. Just received it a couple weeks ago.
One of the lucky ones lol
I know PRL and 27won don’t sell it Catless anymore. At least the last time I checked haha

It makes a huge difference, there’s WAY less back pressure
@@claudio_wrx I had it installed and I can’t even tell a difference lol
@@walahmelons5504 oof 😂😂
Is your intake California legal? I’m trying to find one that’s California legal but not sure what to get.
I know I'm going to get flamed by blind followers, but I added a TurboSmart bov and nothing detrimental has happened to my car in the last 15k miles it's been installed.
Hi , bro thanks for your video , quick question I love your rims , would you mind tell me the set you have ?
Everything is in the description brother
is that spoiler from the factory? if so do you know where i could get one?
What up tony , question where did you get your clear side markers from ??
Amazon

Not sure
Won’t see much on 87 Oct
Might as well just do 91oct to get the most out of it.
Only run 91 on the 1.5T more performance and reliability
Thank you for mentioning base model and sport hatches too I’m looking into getting hatch and wanted to know if I could get these mods on a hatch that’s not an si
The only difference would be on the cat back exhaust really. Everything else pretty much fits
hey bro, what clutch you looking at? I am fbo without upgraded turbo inlet pipe and bigger turbo. I also am holding off installing my prl flex fuel until i upgrade clutch. I’m located in Bay Area.
Either Eman type r retrofit or Competition stage 2 clutch depending on what’s available
That damn train honk
I was thinking to get a PRL intake with Hondata tuner. I actually don't want the exhaust. I also want the community to recommend and tell me what to do lol
Did you have to roll the fenders?
Man... I put Sirimoto flex fuel on E35 and let me tell what a big difference is. Big power gains.
I’ll be there eventually lol
no e85 with newer honda cars! Lean codes. Also, look to replacing the injectors soon :D
I'm Rollin with an injen intake
What clutch are you looking or going to be looking to buy?

Stock clutch, car feels better now lol
No flex fuel kit yet
Does it matter if you buy the downpipe with the front pipe? Or not because I’m only tryna buy a downpipe
Buy both.. Upgrading your dp and not your fp will break your factory fp

1000 seems fair if it's from some one you know will do it right
no hate, but I'd take a hatch of this generation any day. Si is cool too
Hatch was a 2nd choice if I couldn’t get the coupe Si in white lol
