Make sure all the cvt people switch over to amsoil CVT fluid, or at the very least do a few drain and fills after getting ktuner. Then keep up with the cvt fluid changes. Do them often, especially if you're out racing , beating on your car, or lots of digs. If you're over 30k miles do a CVT fluid drain and fill FIRST before installing the tune.
@@breezy_2522 that was an analogy since we have the 16 civic it has a cvt transmission instead of a regular transmission so the cvt trans fluid is made for the cvt while regular trans fluid is for auto or manual cars with 5 or more gears. Youre good with regular oil bro.
BUYER BEWARE! If you have a 10th gen with a manual transmission, plan on a stronger clutch after 10,000 miles of being tuned. Less if you have aggressive driving habits. If you have a shop install your aftermarket clutch, plan on at least $2,500.00. Also, between 45-50,000 miles after the tune, you may end up lifting the head and/or burning your head gasket. That repair will set you back between $3,700 to $4,200, depending on who does the work, and if you decide to go with ARP head studs to hopefully prevent another head gasket failure. With more speed requires better braking. Plan on at the very least, aftermarket rotors and pads. Finally, with more power requires better traction for acceleration and stopping/cornering. A good set of Michelin Pilot Sports can set you back another $$1,300-$1,400.00. You do the math and decide! I love my 10th gen Si, but had I known all of this, I NEVER WOULD HAVE TUNED MY CAR. Cheers!

I wouldnt mind something like this for my CRV, but wouldnt even think about it with my CVT. CVTs are problematic when stock. Now if you have a traditional automatic or manual an extra 30HP would be sweet, though the stock turbo is known to fail due to overspin, so Id be a bit leery about pushing 24psi out of it on a regular basis. But with this you would be good to go on a stock clutch, dosent look like a bad deal at all!!
CVT's aren't problematic. The problem is the owners that think a dayli car is a race car. All cars don't came in their maximum and Bluespark says, CVT's only in map C, to stay reliable and don't damage anything but its all about the driver to and the maintenance of the car.
Super late to this video. But I see you using a Mac but running windows. Currently trying to do this through parallels (I have a Mac book). Parallels doesn’t want to pick up that I have the ktuner plugged into the Mac through parallels. Do you know how to fix this or what drivers I need? Thanks!

you can do it fairly easily just by popping off your dash and buying some dashlights on amazon or wherever. you can find videos all over for any type of car
Or an Si if you wanted a great, fuel efficient daily that can grip to corners and is pretty decently fast for a FWD and not pay the money for a Type-R which is NOT a good daily. And the 10th Gen Si can be modded very easily and quickly with just 5k
