Nice video. Love that RED. Thanks for explaining and showing. Looks and sounds mean. It would be interesting to see this go up against a stock Type R and compare.
Riding around in family sedan with white socks and sandals, ready to tear ass with almost 400lbs of torque to unsuspecting plebs. Can't make this up lol!
Family sedan? Blech. I think luxury sports car sounds better, there's just an air of professionalism and sophistication to the car yet a sleek agile facade that you can't get with most cars.
yesss, man i loved the stock, but with the tune its amazing lol, it made the car breathes much better, i dont even have a Downpipe, intercooler, and exhuast, I am thinking to get the TLX type s with 350hp, thats why i dont wanna spend so much money on my accord, my friend offered me $15k to buy her and i was like hell noooo.
Great video. I appreciate you being honest and not talking about things you don’t know yet. I was a little afraid to do this do I got a sprint booster instead. Doesn’t add more power but increases throttle response so it definitely feels faster.
fly n fury of course no problem. And yes if I don’t know anything I won’t mess with it. Sprint booster is great. I think you are the one that told me to get it a while ago and I didn’t get it cuz I was thinking to ktune my car so I waited. And I think it was 200-300. Mind as well just ktune it haha. I would say get the ktuner and try selling your sprint booster if you can. Not sure if you watched the end of the video when I was driving the car. I was having fun lol.
Helped me install mine. Thanks man. Cars a different beast! I did mess with the vsa and adjusted the boost slightly! Ran a 13.5 @102 completely stock other than the stage 2 flash
I always understood that stage 2 dual target 1 had eco as factory boost, then normal and sport were both stage 2. Sport mode then was higher shift points and just felt sportier. Ktuner site just says boost levels adjusted, but no details beyond that.
You definitely should. I felt like the video was too long. Maybe it’s long cuz the POV drive. But I figured more people will watch since there is a drive. No video has POV drive like this so I decided to make one. But you seriously should consider it. It’s amazing. And I love it.
@@Iegend17 awesome choice...I'm keeping my Accord Sport and going to order TLX Type S for my wife as a surprise...she used to say accord is for old people, but she has been absolutely loving it since we bought it, she even want to get one more just for her, so I'll get TLX Type S to surprise her maybe on her birthday next year
What’s the difference between stage 1 and stage 2? Obviously more power, but you said you only have intake, so can you safely tune stage 2 on stock hardware? And if so, what’s the point of stage 1? Nice and informative video btw. Peace
This is a nice intro to the what the tuner can do but I would recommend you upgrade internals/ bolt-ons. Short explanation is stock parts are only made to handle so much fuel, boost, etc. You're gonna burnout the stock motor and internals.
Stock internals can take A LOT of abuse. I used to have a VW and the car was designed for 200hp and APR was making big turbo kits which we installed giving us 400+ on stock internals, no problems. Things get messy when opening up the engine.
Jeremy Pennycook a great mode. Car picks up insanely. I would say drive it stock for a while so u could tell the difference. But it makes it a completely different.
@@jeremypennycook5514 I have 2020 white sport 2.0T myself. It feels fast without out a tune. lol. I have about 4k miles because of covid19, otherwise it would have been close to 14k miles already because of my commute.
@@jeremypennycook5514 i have a 18 2.0T touring. And i have the ktuner V2 installed, i went for stage 2 but on the settings i have it at about 60% its max potential/power. And let me tell you this, it is a night and day difference. And the best part is that when i have it in eco mode it goes back to stock
I just got a 2016 Civic with the Turbo fully loasded touring edition, I am considerin doing this, its my first car im 21 and have been riding motorcycles since i was 16 so this is a change of speed in all the wrong ways for me, Im used to a liter 1000cc motorcycle i love my car its amazing for going to work in the rain and snow and the speakers and seats r amazing but the engine leaves a lot to be designed Honda should have used a 2.0l turbo but it is what it is
@@Iegend17 he means you should connect a battery charger/maintainer while flashing an ecu. If the battery dies you will brick your ecu. It doesnt matter that ktuner is a good company. If your car battery dies while flashing a tune it will brick the ecu
Thanks for the video. One simple question if you don't mind, can you stop the speed limiter? I mean the maximum speed can this car reach is 208 KM, but I've seen people remove the limiter in professional way and it has reached 285 km as maximum speed. So my question will you be able to remove the governor or the limiter for speed limit? If so, please update us with the video.
Did you have to do any engine mods before installing the tune? I’m researching and as it stands I’m on a stock turbo and stock internals but have a cat back exhaust setup from rev9 love the video very helpful makes me wanna get a ktuner!
hey man was wondering if you have any internal mods installed when you made this video. sounds like you have an air intake. if you do which one? great video!
Yes I do. I have a K&N intake. It was $300 so worth it. I love it. I have a video on TH-cam. Just type K&N intake 2018 Honda Accord and you will see it. You will find it easily.
Thats a handsome sedan. Thinking about retiring my daily BB6 Prelude for this. More spacious and practical. With the tune or flash, how would you rate the MPG if driven conservatively? Just curious if you’ve done it and can share. Thanks!
@@KT_One I have to agree with you, accord seating is not horrible but on a long trip will definitely tire you down with backache. Had one and I can attest to it. My 2020 Nissan Altima with the zero gravity seats are super comfortable, even on a long trip you can tell the different. I wish Honda would put that seats on the Accord.
These tuning products are fun to look at on TH-cam, but for just daily driving, my stock engine is just fine for my 2019 Honda Accord 6sp MT. Keep the vids coming guys.
The accord isnt awd because they want you to buy the tlx if you want awd since that way they can squeeze more money out of u and their wouldnt be an incentive to get the tlx if the accord was awd
The 21 TLX 2.0T will have available SH-AWD. I’ll likely be getting that to replace my 19 TLX V6.....then I’ll dabble with some of the mods enjoyed by Accord X 2.0T enthusiasts.
Have you had any problems with the car since using k tuner, & also is your car totally stock? I'm looking to do this on my 21 TLX TYPE-S which will have a full cat back valvetronic exhaust & a secondary cat delete with high flow 3 inch pipe installed
Fabio Souza Jr not sure but everything running fine. I am not heavily modified. If put more things on my car then definitely I will do a bigger intercooler. I know having a better intercooler won’t hurt but I’d rather spend my money on a down pipe
Intercooling prevents overheating vs downpipe gives more exhaust performance, which may lead to higher power, but more heat. Up to you on which is more important.
IamRyu I was getting 32 on current drive on eco mode and I was going 65-70 mph. If I drop my speed to 55-60 I am pretty sure I can be around 35 mpg. Mine is the 2.0t by the way
Stock power is very fast on sport mode. I have the same 10sp AT shift transmission which is insanely fast in its on right. The only thing is, front brakes seem to fade or vibrate a bit. Is this an indication I need new front brakes? I think I had my rear brakes changed already. Like when I’m driving fast on freeway if I’m not paying attention I feel as I might hit the cars in front me. Once I hit the brakes sends my body and passengers flying forward. Definitely not safe, yet alone having over 300hp with a tune like this. Only thing I had changed was brand new tires. Keep in mind this is the 1st time replacing front brakes since I purchased the accord 2.0t in 2018. You think my front brakes are done? Taking in my car to Honda this week for oil change and brake inspection hmm 🤔
@日産スカイライン hondata stage 2 adds more than 100 lb-ft of torque. It's easily believable how much torque these little turbos can make for a second or 2. It's the drop off that's horrible.
@日産スカイライン it's actually more like 80-85. It literally says 85 in the link you sent. I was getting stage 2 mixed with the flex fuel tune which adds over 100+ lb-ft of torque.
hey bro, i know you stopped making vids on your Accord but I'm seriously considering trading in my 1.5T for a 2.0T, its either that or an 2018 Audi S3 but the S3 maintenance is high af. do you know your 0-60w ith the ktuner stage 2 on the 2.0t?
Get the honda. The audi is about the same speed without the launch control as the accord And honda is more reliable. But test drive both and if your buying the audi make sure it has low miles 20k or lower.
So one year later, what’s your updated review on it? Have you ran into any issues with your Turbo now that it’s working a bit harder? Or anything else come up?
No nothing. Been great no issues. I sold her two months and I have a Tesla now. The seller contacts me asking me questions lol. He loves it. I mean I invested a lot of money. High quality brakes and rotors and a ton of accessories. With this tune you need new tires cuz it does make them front tires spin lol.
@@danny-ee8ye $20k sold at 52k. Don’t buy used. I saw a used one for the same price as a new one with 40k on and it was a year older than a new one. :)
Great video. I have a 2020 2.0T Sport and I’d like more power but I have a few questions. (1) How useful is this upgrade? I have trouble putting the power down to the ground as it is because it just fries the tires when flooring it from standstill. Unless at highway speeds, what would be the point of more power if u can’t use it? (2) How is the fuel economy after this mod? I would imagine that during spirited driving it wastes a bit more gas, but during regular timid driving it is the same as before because it’s not as if you changed the displacement of the engine. Am I right about this? (3) Some of the folks mention that the warranty might get voided. If u bring the car to the dealer for whatever need, how would they even be able to tell that the car has a tune unless they take it on the road and get on it hard? Does Hondata also void the warranty? (4) Did this mod change the sound of the engine at all? I hate how timid the engine sounds. I’d love for it to sound throatier but not necessarily annoyanly loud. What can I do to get a deeper throatier engine sound, preferably without doing something too invasive and irreversible since it’s a lease? Thanks a bunch!
I don’t own a 2.0 Accord but all OTS (Off the Shelf) tunes are the same, I could answer most of your questions. 1. You’re having trouble putting power down because your car is FWD and they struggle with traction, getting wider and performance tires help with traction. I personally recommend Michelin Pilot Sport 4S. 2. Surprisingly tunes actually help fuel economy unless driving aggressive, a lot of tunes help with MPG. 3. The dealership won’t go lurking around to see if you’re tuned unless they have a reason to do so, like if you’re having transmission problems they’ll make it a problem, they can tell it’s been tuned by checking the ECU. Also, they won’t bother checking if you’re just going for regular maintenance like oil changes. 4. It could enhance the sound, just a tad bit. You might hear some back fire and a slightly deeper note. But besides that it won’t be anything drastic unless you get an exhaust or downpipes
@@LeJunny If I put back to factory tune, would they still be able to tell? I'm not the guy you answered to but he had the same questions as me so thank you for your answers!
I used to have a 2018 Infiniti Q50s with ams lower downpipe , ams cold air intake, hks bov and fast intention exhaust with a jb4 kinda like the ktune and it blew my motor lol .. Now I got a 2020 Honda Accord 1.5t did all the look outside and just got my carbon fiber steering wheels installed ..
i have a 2020 1.5t and till have a warrenty, what i’m curious on is would the dealership be able to detect that i’ve ktuned the car before, but turned it into them with all the factory stock maps, would there be some kind of history there for them to be able to see what i’ve done or would they just go based off what they see ??
because in theory can’t you drop a file with all the stock factory mods and tune the car up before you take it in everytime ? pain in the ass but is it doable ?
I have a friend that has 1.5t heavily modified and something happend to his transmission and his exhaust was leaking and they fixed everything under warranty. I saw a video of someone had an issue and they said they can’t fix his car. So maybe depends on the dealership. I took my car to get an oil change yesterday and they didn’t say anything. I told them I have brake issues and they didn’t scan the car. So let’s say something happend to ur axles or suspension and they come and tell you hey man we can’t fix it cuz you have ktuner then they can’t do that. Cuz it has nothing to do with it. You know what I mean. Same with an air intake. If you have an aftermarket one then they come and say your transmission broke cuz of it, they can’t do that cuz that’s not what caused it. But they can be assholes about that. They have to prove this specific part broke something on your car and if they can’t then you are good to go :)
I'm really considering getting one of these for my 2019 Honda Civic EX. I haven't had the car long and I've already done my first modification with an Injen cold air intake. I was skeptical and still am but I added a GTE stage 1 performance module which many people believe it's BS and nothing more than a light show. I'm not sure if that actually adds horsepower or it's a placebo it effect but it claims to add around 30 horsepower which is a pretty outrageous claim. I don't know this any kind of power like that and I'm thinking about ditching that and going with this instead so I know for a fact that it's going to have the horsepower that it's promising to deliver. Then I will continue my tuning Journey with everything from an entire intercooler upgrade and entire exhaust from downpipe to high Flow catalytic converter and Cat-Back exhaust. For now I'm just shopping around and finding what works best for my car and my budget.
Cuong Nguyen some people said that Honda still covers the car. I haven’t had any issues and I can’t speak. Honda makes their cars to be tuned and abused. That’s why people buy Honda’s. Honda knows people will be doing things like that. I know it’s a Honda but people like pushing the limits. Their engines are amazing and they are always under rated. Especially this 2.0t people get shocked by the power it has (before the tune) hahah
Legend17 Cuong Nguyen had a very sound response. Anyone who thinks they can take their Accord from a very decent performing sedan to a high end performance level sedan with some bullshit they purchased on eBay is fooling themselves. Your car was designed to handle the 250-260 HP it produces. Yes, it shares the same stock engine as a Type-R, but it doesn’t have the performance parts attached to the engine that the Type-R has. In the long run you are going to damage your engine, and there is no way Honda will honor your warranty if they can detect you modified the factory settings. Your warranty is for the car/configuration you purchased, not your modified Accord. Do you really think Honda is going to say “okay, you have a huge engine knock and timing issues due to this modification you did to get 20more HP, but we got your back, we cover idiotic mods on our warranty” You seem to b having fun which is awesome, but those dealers will do anything to void your warranty.....plus you don’t want to fuck up a perfectly nice car for a little more acceleration.
Jerry K Hoff I agree with you and you have a good point but those engines can handle a lot. Trust me I know a lot of people have very modified engines and nothing happened to them. I do have lifetime warranty and literally a tech at the dealer told me if you decide to put a tune in the future for us to be able to fix anything you have to remove it cuz in the report we send Honda it will show and Honda will reject it. I literally took my car there cuz of a misfire and he scanned it for free and told me it’s a spark plug. I changed the spark plug and car runs amazing!! Was done changing the spark in 15 mins. Can that misfire be caused by the tune? Yes it might.
@Cuong Nguyen Ha ha, no shit! I went in for my first service on my 2019 2.0T accord and they were trying to charge me money on basic service that I had purchased as part of my deal with my car! The guy asked, "where did you purchase this vehicle?"....my car literally has the plate brackets of the dealership and he was staring at them when he asked me the question. I realize we aren't dealing with NASA scientists when we go in these car dealerships, but get your game together. When we went to the register and straightened things out, he said, "good news, no charge you purchased the lifetime service package". I just said "woo hoo!" and walked away. I think the service package was a rookie mistake on my part, but I dont have to worry about finding a garage for quality oil changes on a performance engine. Some funny shit happened as I picked up my car, some Honda oil change mobster came up to me and told me not to come back in before my warning level was at 10%..... my car was almost a year old and at about 20% service warning...I just told him, "see ya next week, I have unlimited oil changes and I want to see you work".
Man this gen accord is so clean... I'm torn between getting a Lexus gs350 and this honda... Right now my head is on the honda.. Seems like I would just be paying more for the name..
Dwight Prewitt where do u live. Does it snow there? Cuz honestly I struggle in the snow. If the Lexus IS AWD then definitely Lexus. AWD is a king. But how is the maintenance on the Lexus. I choose reliability instead of AWD and luxury. But Lexus is good since it’s a Toyota. I love my accord and I am keeping her. People always look. It’s crazy cuz it’s just a Honda hahah. You can do so much to Honda and there are soooo many modes and customization and pretty cheap :)
@@Jykobe491 no sir it just meant that he didn't respond back. I personally been running ktuner since my car had 15000 miles on it. Didn't care about the warranty, I just wanted the engine to have a good break in period. Car runs perfect. No issues whatsoever
@@Iegend17 facts if i were you i wouldve went for the ktuner V2 i heard there's gonna be a tune released for the 2.0 that helps a million with the wheelspin when launching
Sam Sabin it’s actually on the 1.2. It’s just an update. It’s called something VSA. I did have that option but I didn’t mess with it cuz I didn’t know. Didn’t want to do anything that I didn’t have experience in. I did ask a lot of people and they told me that it will fix the wheel spin.
Wait im so confused so you can make your car run faster all by downloading a software program and not changing any actual engine parts? Ive never done this before so im confused
Nick Nana yes you can haha. I didn’t know that too. And I was shocked tbh. So Honda locks the turbo and makes it only make it produce a certain psi. But changing the computer in the car it unlocks the turbo to let it produce/make more psi so that equals to more power. Of course having parts like an exhaust and air intake help the car. But I know it’s crazy hahah
Been thinkin about getting a tune for the 2.0 T but I was wondering by getting a tune will it allow you to accelerate over the 120mph or will you still have to remove the governor?
Pretty dumb statement but alright 😂it's the most bang for buck but downpipes and said tune will help your top end and mid range alot in any turbo car, significant difference
Wedow big facts... most of these small turbo 2L run out of breath around 5500. While they don’t usually have a HUGE effect on the peak numbers. A good intake with Down pipes and a test pipe usually help it carry QUITE a bit more power to redline instead of falling on its face at 5k.
Wedow Depends what you want but 50 additional hp with a tune is a big gain. Cold air intake is not going to give you that kind of power and if you buy quality instead of some Ebay garbage it gets expensive. If you want more power take it to a tuner and go E85. I like the small turbo’s zero lag. The Type R turbo has some low end lag from what I have seen.
Phantom096 I had a FBO and tuned 2013 genesis coupe 2.0t stock it put down 220whp and 260wtq on XXX motor sports dynojet in Pensacola FL all pulls done on the same dyno on the same day. Stock with an SFR stage 1 tune it made almost 260whp. Thing made mad torque 340wtq at 3500 and held it to right at 5k where it rolled over hard, by 5500 it was still pulling but was down to around 250wtq and by 6500 was below 200wtq. Putting an intake, test pipe, and full exhaust on it only got me an extra 30whp and actually dropped my peak torque to 320wtq but it didn’t nosedive like it did with the stock intake and exhaust. I was still making almost 290wtq @ 5500 and by 6500 was still making almost 240wtq. I paid $300 for the tune and got 40hp and 80wtq then paid 1500 for the intake test pipe and exhaust and only got 30whp and lost 20wtq but overall the car was WAY faster with the intake and exhaust than it was with just the tune. Bang for the buck you can’t beat the tune, I’m not arguing that at all. But what I am saying is that other Bolt ons have their merits as well especially after it’s tuned.
This is amazing Really cool!! However, I wouldn't recommend doing this unless you are buying the car. Depending on the dealership, some actually check for mods.
does that mean mods to the engine like a K-TUNER would void any factory/dealer warranty? bc i have an accord coupe 2017 and thinking about running a k-tuner under a power train warranty from the dealer.
@@jimmyle6305 Here's the thing. Technically if you are using a ktuner and it could be traced back to a failure or malfunction of the car, yes your warranty can be null and void. some dealerships, especially where there is a high propensity for modded cars, will check for alterations. Most won't. Typically this doesn't happen because most used cars that come back in from leases are quickly moved off the lot to sell to other dealers or potential owners
Alright boys quick question. Some flirty cute chick says my 2.0T is slow. She drives a lightly modded 350Z btw. Can the 2.0T keep up with some mods on a twisty mountain road?
I have v6 2016 accord what can I do to mine to make it go vroom vroom better? Also is the 2.0T better than the V6. Not really into cars more of 6 inch lift big wheels big tire guh but i needed a car lol
No you have to find a tune for your altima. It changes the configuration of the car, each cars configurations are different so even if you could tune your altima with their tuner, your car would be fucked up, not in a good way.
That’s what I said too. But I have lifetime warranty 😂 people say it’s safe. My friend has a heavily modified accord like mine and his transmission broke and Honda fixed it under warranty.
Dumb question amnesty as I saw you click on different values. Can I just plug it in, choose stage 2, install, goodbye? I don’t care to mess with individual settings.
same here...i dont want to install the oil catch can as well. Will wait for any modifications until warranty is over. They have a strict void policy for engine modifications.
That's super impressive for an Accord with just a simple ECU tune. Ktuner really is the way to go

This is def the first engine mod i'm doing to my car! great video! 1.5T here so let's see how it does.
Maximo Carrasco me too , have you done this yet ??
I have a 2020 1.5 interested as well of your results
Landon Longbrake I have a 1.5 2020 sport and it’s dope af def not a waste of time. Let’s see your broke boy car😂
I know a lot of people did it with their 1.5t and they said it made the car breathes and accelerate better.
@@rolof5795 not yet. Maybe in a few months
Fr🤦♂️🤷🏼♂️ I love Ktuner...... but damn fix the iOS device issue. Should not have to buy another lap top lol
How you explained the mapping stages was a bit confusing, if compared to what’s written. Thought I’d mention it. Thanks for the vid!
Well done. Nice job.
What’s the difference between stage 1 and stage 2? Obviously more power, but you said you only have intake, so can you safely tune stage 2 on stock hardware? And if so, what’s the point of stage 1? Nice and informative video btw. Peace
I want to tune mine as well very soon. So far, I only got it to modify the body kit and all. Just missing the Ktuner and PRL downpipe.
HondaMods got for it it will be sooo fun to drive.
I want a tune for my 05 TL dont know if this is it but very useful video. 👌🏾
Ngl, you are my new favorite Chanel in TH-cam bro
This is exciting. I have a 19 and been waiting this. Now its confirmed im getting 😍
Stephany Lazo sorry for the late reply and it’s safe and very easy to install.
This is a nice intro to the what the tuner can do but I would recommend you upgrade internals/ bolt-ons. Short explanation is stock parts are only made to handle so much fuel, boost, etc. You're gonna burnout the stock motor and internals.
It’s a Honda lol. She will be fine hahah
Stock internals can take A LOT of abuse. I used to have a VW and the car was designed for 200hp and APR was making big turbo kits which we installed giving us 400+ on stock internals, no problems. Things get messy when opening up the engine.
That’s what you think until you blow a head-gasket. Yes, it’s a Honda, but you’re still wearing out components faster than normal.

@@jeremypennycook5514 i have a 18 2.0T touring. And i have the ktuner V2 installed, i went for stage 2 but on the settings i have it at about 60% its max potential/power.

I just got a 2016 Civic with the Turbo fully loasded touring edition, I am considerin doing this, its my first car im 21 and have been riding motorcycles since i was 16 so this is a change of speed in all the wrong ways for me, Im used to a liter 1000cc motorcycle i love my car its amazing for going to work in the rain and snow and the speakers and seats r amazing but the engine leaves a lot to be designed Honda should have used a 2.0l turbo but it is what it is
You really should hook up a battery charger. Bricked an ECU about 10 years ago with a flash without a battery charger. It helps stabilize voltage.
mdw1000 Ktuner is very safe and big company. But thank u
@@Iegend17 he means you should connect a battery charger/maintainer while flashing an ecu. If the battery dies you will brick your ecu. It doesnt matter that ktuner is a good company. If your car battery dies while flashing a tune it will brick the ecu
Thanks for the video. One simple question if you don't mind, can you stop the speed limiter? I mean the maximum speed can this car reach is 208 KM, but I've seen people remove the limiter in professional way and it has reached 285 km as maximum speed.
So my question will you be able to remove the governor or the limiter for speed limit? If so, please update us with the video.
I believe he had stated that it does remove the limiter automatically, (response to someone else who had asked the same question) Hope this helps.
The ktuner removes it
cool stuff man!
Did you have to do any engine mods before installing the tune? I’m researching and as it stands I’m on a stock turbo and stock internals but have a cat back exhaust setup from rev9 love the video very helpful makes me wanna get a ktuner!
hey man was wondering if you have any internal mods installed when you made this video. sounds like you have an air intake. if you do which one? great video!
Yes I do. I have a K&N intake. It was $300 so worth it. I love it. I have a video on TH-cam. Just type K&N intake 2018 Honda Accord and you will see it. You will find it easily.
Does anyone else hear the turbo🔥
Gotta love a tune!
Hey man, how long have you had this car for?
How is the reliability with the tune?
Thanks.
Thats a handsome sedan. Thinking about retiring my daily BB6 Prelude for this. More spacious and practical.
With the tune or flash, how would you rate the MPG if driven conservatively? Just curious if you’ve done it and can share. Thanks!
I have one and the seats are terrible. If you look at one I hear the EXL or Touring seats are much better.
@@KT_One I have to agree with you, accord seating is not horrible but on a long trip will definitely tire you down with backache. Had one and I can attest to it. My 2020 Nissan Altima with the zero gravity seats are super comfortable, even on a long trip you can tell the different. I wish Honda would put that seats on the Accord.
@@tousshong9438 we sold ours with only 4k miles on it. Couldn’t endure the seats any longer.
@@KT_One yeah, love the power and fuel efficient but same here. I had it a week got rid of it with a bit profit then what I paid for. No regret.
Crazy how you can make a car go faster without any mechanical work
Same here haha. Like few years ago who would’ve thought his will be possible.
(Detuned type r engine) car was already fast but to make it more reliable they detuned it.
They detuned by giving it smaller turbo. Possibly, they also gave less racing grade internals. Just watch out for higher than normal wear and tear.
Download more boost! lol
These tuning products are fun to look at on TH-cam, but for just daily driving, my stock engine is just fine for my 2019 Honda Accord 6sp MT. Keep the vids coming guys.
Trust me it’s more fun driving it when it tuned. People don’t expect it but thank you :)
Does tuning hurt the car?
Thank You Sir!!
I wish the accord was all wheel drive! 😪
The Expert Gamer I live in Austin TX, what awe awd used for?
2021 acura tlx 2.0t is lol
The accord isnt awd because they want you to buy the tlx if you want awd since that way they can squeeze more money out of u and their wouldnt be an incentive to get the tlx if the accord was awd
The 21 TLX 2.0T will have available SH-AWD. I’ll likely be getting that to replace my 19 TLX V6.....then I’ll dabble with some of the mods enjoyed by Accord X 2.0T enthusiasts.
People have pulled out crv and pilot drivetrains and modified civics and accords to make them AWD, why not just do that 🤷♂️
Would be interesting to see how much it improves 0-60 times.
Arman M not a lot tbh. 0.3-0.5 I have seen videos on TH-cam and Honda Accord group on fb. It’s the mid range the changed a lot
@@Iegend17 Thanks!
They added a new feature called vsa or something like that. To summarize it, it means it will improve 0-60 times
Baby Joker trueee
R 88 with type R turbo upgrade and e85 timing it hits high 12’s.
Nice red logo. Can you explain how did you install it? And where to buy the red logo?
Have you had any problems with the car since using k tuner, & also is your car totally stock? I'm looking to do this on my 21 TLX TYPE-S which will have a full cat back valvetronic exhaust & a secondary cat delete with high flow 3 inch pipe installed
how are the intake and exhaust temps? maybe look into bigger intercooler and oil cooler to improve long term reliability.
Fabio Souza Jr not sure but everything running fine. I am not heavily modified. If put more things on my car then definitely I will do a bigger intercooler. I know having a better intercooler won’t hurt but I’d rather spend my money on a down pipe
Legend17 ‘
Mark Kaai yea?
Intercooling prevents overheating vs downpipe gives more exhaust performance, which may lead to higher power, but more heat. Up to you on which is more important.
Is it still a gas saver on eco mode? I have a 1.5t and I usually do about 34-36 mpg on freeway on eco.
IamRyu I was getting 32 on current drive on eco mode and I was going 65-70 mph. If I drop my speed to 55-60 I am pretty sure I can be around 35 mpg. Mine is the 2.0t by the way
I have the ktuner V2 and i have the setting to where on eco, it stays stock, and on sport it turns into a beast
Any concerns on the transmission? Did you add a transmission cooler?
Stock power is very fast on sport mode. I have the same 10sp AT shift transmission which is insanely fast in its on right. The only thing is, front brakes seem to fade or vibrate a bit. Is this an indication I need new front brakes? I think I had my rear brakes changed already. Like when I’m driving fast on freeway if I’m not paying attention I feel as I might hit the cars in front me. Once I hit the brakes sends my body and passengers flying forward. Definitely not safe, yet alone having over 300hp with a tune like this. Only thing I had changed was brand new tires. Keep in mind this is the 1st time replacing front brakes since I purchased the accord 2.0t in 2018. You think my front brakes are done? Taking in my car to Honda this week for oil change and brake inspection hmm 🤔
360tq is crazy! I want one of these in Hybrid form
BBB T it does feel really nice and torquey but not sure if it’s really 360 torque
The Hybird come with the CVT transmission run away
@日産スカイライン hondata stage 2 adds more than 100 lb-ft of torque. It's easily believable how much torque these little turbos can make for a second or 2. It's the drop off that's horrible.
@日産スカイライン but it does lol and you can feel it
@日産スカイライン it's actually more like 80-85. It literally says 85 in the link you sent. I was getting stage 2 mixed with the flex fuel tune which adds over 100+ lb-ft of torque.
hey bro, i know you stopped making vids on your Accord but I'm seriously considering trading in my 1.5T for a 2.0T, its either that or an 2018 Audi S3 but the S3 maintenance is high af. do you know your 0-60w ith the ktuner stage 2 on the 2.0t?
Get the honda. The audi is about the same speed without the launch control as the accord And honda is more reliable. But test drive both and if your buying the audi make sure it has low miles 20k or lower.
Great video man .. I want to know if it works on k24typeS engine pls?? And where is available ??
Impressive !! 👍👍👍👍
So one year later, what’s your updated review on it?
Have you ran into any issues with your Turbo now that it’s working a bit harder? Or anything else come up?
No nothing. Been great no issues. I sold her two months and I have a Tesla now. The seller contacts me asking me questions lol. He loves it. I mean I invested a lot of money. High quality brakes and rotors and a ton of accessories. With this tune you need new tires cuz it does make them front tires spin lol.

Great video. I have a 2020 2.0T Sport and I’d like more power but I have a few questions. (1) How useful is this upgrade? I have trouble putting the power down to the ground as it is because it just fries the tires when flooring it from standstill. Unless at highway speeds, what would be the point of more power if u can’t use it? (2) How is the fuel economy after this mod? I would imagine that during spirited driving it wastes a bit more gas, but during regular timid driving it is the same as before because it’s not as if you changed the displacement of the engine. Am I right about this? (3) Some of the folks mention that the warranty might get voided. If u bring the car to the dealer for whatever need, how would they even be able to tell that the car has a tune unless they take it on the road and get on it hard? Does Hondata also void the warranty? (4) Did this mod change the sound of the engine at all? I hate how timid the engine sounds. I’d love for it to sound throatier but not necessarily annoyanly loud. What can I do to get a deeper throatier engine sound, preferably without doing something too invasive and irreversible since it’s a lease? Thanks a bunch!
I don’t own a 2.0 Accord but all OTS (Off the Shelf) tunes are the same, I could answer most of your questions. 1. You’re having trouble putting power down because your car is FWD and they struggle with traction, getting wider and performance tires help with traction. I personally recommend Michelin Pilot Sport 4S. 2. Surprisingly tunes actually help fuel economy unless driving aggressive, a lot of tunes help with MPG. 3. The dealership won’t go lurking around to see if you’re tuned unless they have a reason to do so, like if you’re having transmission problems they’ll make it a problem, they can tell it’s been tuned by checking the ECU. Also, they won’t bother checking if you’re just going for regular maintenance like oil changes. 4. It could enhance the sound, just a tad bit. You might hear some back fire and a slightly deeper note. But besides that it won’t be anything drastic unless you get an exhaust or downpipes
@@LeJunny If I put back to factory tune, would they still be able to tell? I'm not the guy you answered to but he had the same questions as me so thank you for your answers!
Nice thumbnail pic 🐺
Dealers, plug in their diagnostic tools ,and that let's u know if the computer has be altered by by warranty
Do you still have your car
How's the tuner holding up
Still fun to drive
Any updates with performance or wera would be great
Thanks
I used to have a 2018 Infiniti Q50s with ams lower downpipe , ams cold air intake, hks bov and fast intention exhaust with a jb4 kinda like the ktune and it blew my motor lol .. Now I got a 2020 Honda Accord 1.5t did all the look outside and just got my carbon fiber steering wheels installed ..
Oh dam man. I was thinking to get the Z but I am scared now 😂. I sold my Honda and got 22 tesla model 3 performance
i have a 2020 1.5t and till have a warrenty, what i’m curious on is would the dealership be able to detect that i’ve ktuned the car before, but turned it into them with all the factory stock maps, would there be some kind of history there for them to be able to see what i’ve done or would they just go based off what they see ??
because in theory can’t you drop a file with all the stock factory mods and tune the car up before you take it in everytime ? pain in the ass but is it doable ?
I have a friend that has 1.5t heavily modified and something happend to his transmission and his exhaust was leaking and they fixed everything under warranty. I saw a video of someone had an issue and they said they can’t fix his car. So maybe depends on the dealership. I took my car to get an oil change yesterday and they didn’t say anything. I told them I have brake issues and they didn’t scan the car. So let’s say something happend to ur axles or suspension and they come and tell you hey man we can’t fix it cuz you have ktuner then they can’t do that. Cuz it has nothing to do with it. You know what I mean. Same with an air intake. If you have an aftermarket one then they come and say your transmission broke cuz of it, they can’t do that cuz that’s not what caused it. But they can be assholes about that. They have to prove this specific part broke something on your car and if they can’t then you are good to go :)
Legend17 awesome, thanks a lot man appreciate it, ima do it pretty soon and see how it all goes, if i remember i’ll comment back on here 🤣
Beto hernandez haha of course mann if you need anything please comment. I like helping people out. Feel free to comment anywhere
So does this void warranty? And can the dealer see you’ve flashed your ECU even after going back to factory settings?
For sure lol
I'm really considering getting one of these for my 2019 Honda Civic EX. I haven't had the car long and I've already done my first modification with an Injen cold air intake. I was skeptical and still am but I added a GTE stage 1 performance module which many people believe it's BS and nothing more than a light show. I'm not sure if that actually adds horsepower or it's a placebo it effect but it claims to add around 30 horsepower which is a pretty outrageous claim. I don't know this any kind of power like that and I'm thinking about ditching that and going with this instead so I know for a fact that it's going to have the horsepower that it's promising to deliver. Then I will continue my tuning Journey with everything from an entire intercooler upgrade and entire exhaust from downpipe to high Flow catalytic converter and Cat-Back exhaust. For now I'm just shopping around and finding what works best for my car and my budget.
Great video👍
Would this work for the 2019 Honda Accord sport 2.0?
They have the v2 out now
This would be sick on the manual
Does this flash make the car less fuel efficient even in Eco mode? Also do you think think the tune will ruin your car faster?
Cuong Nguyen some people said that Honda still covers the car. I haven’t had any issues and I can’t speak. Honda makes their cars to be tuned and abused. That’s why people buy Honda’s. Honda knows people will be doing things like that. I know it’s a Honda but people like pushing the limits. Their engines are amazing and they are always under rated. Especially this 2.0t people get shocked by the power it has (before the tune) hahah
Legend17 Cuong Nguyen had a very sound response. Anyone who thinks they can take their Accord from a very decent performing sedan to a high end performance level sedan with some bullshit they purchased on eBay is fooling themselves. Your car was designed to handle the 250-260 HP it produces. Yes, it shares the same stock engine as a Type-R, but it doesn’t have the performance parts attached to the engine that the Type-R has. In the long run you are going to damage your engine, and there is no way Honda will honor your warranty if they can detect you modified the factory settings. Your warranty is for the car/configuration you purchased, not your modified Accord. Do you really think Honda is going to say “okay, you have a huge engine knock and timing issues due to this modification you did to get 20more HP, but we got your back, we cover idiotic mods on our warranty”
You seem to b having fun which is awesome, but those dealers will do anything to void your warranty.....plus you don’t want to fuck up a perfectly nice car for a little more acceleration.
Jerry K Hoff I agree with you and you have a good point but those engines can handle a lot. Trust me I know a lot of people have very modified engines and nothing happened to them. I do have lifetime warranty and literally a tech at the dealer told me if you decide to put a tune in the future for us to be able to fix anything you have to remove it cuz in the report we send Honda it will show and Honda will reject it. I literally took my car there cuz of a misfire and he scanned it for free and told me it’s a spark plug. I changed the spark plug and car runs amazing!! Was done changing the spark in 15 mins. Can that misfire be caused by the tune? Yes it might.
@Cuong Nguyen Ha ha, no shit! I went in for my first service on my 2019 2.0T accord and they were trying to charge me money on basic service that I had purchased as part of my deal with my car! The guy asked, "where did you purchase this vehicle?"....my car literally has the plate brackets of the dealership and he was staring at them when he asked me the question. I realize we aren't dealing with NASA scientists when we go in these car dealerships, but get your game together. When we went to the register and straightened things out, he said, "good news, no charge you purchased the lifetime service package". I just said "woo hoo!" and walked away. I think the service package was a rookie mistake on my part, but I dont have to worry about finding a garage for quality oil changes on a performance engine. Some funny shit happened as I picked up my car, some Honda oil change mobster came up to me and told me not to come back in before my warning level was at 10%..... my car was almost a year old and at about 20% service warning...I just told him, "see ya next week, I have unlimited oil changes and I want to see you work".

@@Iegend17 facts if i were you i wouldve went for the ktuner V2 i heard there's gonna be a tune released for the 2.0 that helps a million with the wheelspin when launching

Wait im so confused so you can make your car run faster all by downloading a software program and not changing any actual engine parts? Ive never done this before so im confused
If you want to do a tune I would recommend upgrading some engine parts.
Nick Nana yes you can haha. I didn’t know that too. And I was shocked tbh. So Honda locks the turbo and makes it only make it produce a certain psi. But changing the computer in the car it unlocks the turbo to let it produce/make more psi so that equals to more power. Of course having parts like an exhaust and air intake help the car. But I know it’s crazy hahah
Oem needs to consider the emission, fuel economy, and durability. This is why the stock ecu calibration is consertive in terms of performance.
My car lease is up I’m deciding if I should get this with the tune or a V6 accord. Decisions decisions. I wonder if this is faster than a V6 Mustang.

Thanks for the vid. Just wondering though. All that program does it come when buying the tuner or you have to buy all the tuner maps?

Legend17 Thanks., I did and absolutely love it.
H2Batavia glad you do :)
Awesome vid... But, does it void the warranty? I thought flashpro was backed by Honda North America, let me know when you can:-)))
The only mod these cars need is the tune since they already come with a turbo. All the other stuff is a waste of money if you ask me.
Pretty dumb statement but alright 😂it's the most bang for buck but downpipes and said tune will help your top end and mid range alot in any turbo car, significant difference
Wedow big facts... most of these small turbo 2L run out of breath around 5500. While they don’t usually have a HUGE effect on the peak numbers. A good intake with Down pipes and a test pipe usually help it carry QUITE a bit more power to redline instead of falling on its face at 5k.
@@TurboNFRStwoK exactly lol
Wedow Depends what you want but 50 additional hp with a tune is a big gain. Cold air intake is not going to give you that kind of power and if you buy quality instead of some Ebay garbage it gets expensive. If you want more power take it to a tuner and go E85.
I like the small turbo’s zero lag. The Type R turbo has some low end lag from what I have seen.
Phantom096 I had a FBO and tuned 2013 genesis coupe 2.0t stock it put down 220whp and 260wtq on XXX motor sports dynojet in Pensacola FL all pulls done on the same dyno on the same day.
Stock with an SFR stage 1 tune it made almost 260whp. Thing made mad torque 340wtq at 3500 and held it to right at 5k where it rolled over hard, by 5500 it was still pulling but was down to around 250wtq and by 6500 was below 200wtq.
Putting an intake, test pipe, and full exhaust on it only got me an extra 30whp and actually dropped my peak torque to 320wtq but it didn’t nosedive like it did with the stock intake and exhaust. I was still making almost 290wtq @ 5500 and by 6500 was still making almost 240wtq. I paid $300 for the tune and got 40hp and 80wtq then paid 1500 for the intake test pipe and exhaust and only got 30whp and lost 20wtq but overall the car was WAY faster with the intake and exhaust than it was with just the tune.
Bang for the buck you can’t beat the tune, I’m not arguing that at all. But what I am saying is that other Bolt ons have their merits as well especially after it’s tuned.
Can the 10 speed auto handle all that torque over time?
Yes. The automatic box is still capable of handling 50% more torque.
Yes I have over 40 drag runs over a 2years Period and my Transmission is smooth as butter
Just Awesome :: glad it is. What do u have on your car ?
Where do you get the black trim you have on the front? It looks amazing!
eBay or Amazon. eBay is cheaper. I have videos on my channel with the link. Just write “Honda accord 2018 grill cover Legend17”
This is amazing Really cool!! However, I wouldn't recommend doing this unless you are buying the car. Depending on the dealership, some actually check for mods.
does that mean mods to the engine like a K-TUNER would void any factory/dealer warranty? bc i have an accord coupe 2017 and thinking about running a k-tuner under a power train warranty from the dealer.
@@jimmyle6305 Here's the thing. Technically if you are using a ktuner and it could be traced back to a failure or malfunction of the car, yes your warranty can be null and void. some dealerships, especially where there is a high propensity for modded cars, will check for alterations. Most won't. Typically this doesn't happen because most used cars that come back in from leases are quickly moved off the lot to sell to other dealers or potential owners
will it work on 1.5T?
Yep. Check it out their site.

No you have to find a tune for your altima. It changes the configuration of the car, each cars configurations are different so even if you could tune your altima with their tuner, your car would be fucked up, not in a good way.
I'll do this when my warranty runs out lol
no cap
@Zay powertrain has a 5yr 60k mile Warranty so that long haha
That’s what I said too. But I have lifetime warranty 😂 people say it’s safe. My friend has a heavily modified accord like mine and his transmission broke and Honda fixed it under warranty.
Dumb question amnesty as I saw you click on different values. Can I just plug it in, choose stage 2, install, goodbye? I don’t care to mess with individual settings.
Do you know if the ktuner will work with all 10th gen accords? Just got a 2021 and seeing what my options are...thanks!
I’d love to tune mine, but I can’t risk losing my warranty.
same here...i dont want to install the oil catch can as well. Will wait for any modifications until warranty is over. They have a strict void policy for engine modifications.
Fuzooli Ameenudeen wow even with an oil catch can ? I installed one and video coming tmrw :)
I lost my lifetime warranty I think.
Fuzooli Ameenudeen your ok with the oil catch can.
@@Honda_life_2020_ not installing anything under the hood until warranty is over..
I’d rather have the 3.5 accord sport .
i wouldn’t 😂
Smart man
You say that only because you don't own a 2.0t sport.
The 3.5L V6 only comes in the EX, EX-L, and Touring V6 models. Lol
isnowyazn I like the older accord 3.5 sport sedan.
Hey do you need any bolt ons in order to install the Ktune? Or can I be all stock and just upload the tune?
Do you have any other mods on your car?
Bro get this protuned before you blow it up. Smh
KTuner base maps have been extensively tested and are very reliable.
@@TheAngryDuckmanso the car isn't going to blow up?
Do you still have this tune on here? What tune do you recommend just for daily driving?
Hey what other mods did you put? I hear the woosh sound. You have an aftermarket intake?
Did you need to get a new PCM? Or computer or just plug and play?
