- What’s up y’all! Today we review the Phearable Stage 2 Tune for the Civic Type R. Not just a talking head the entire time but I show some great before and after races to support my experience!
Don’t forget to give me a follow on Instagram @Abe_fk8
This is the best review ever... it's perfect how u race the same cars when u have dif mods to show difference.. best way to do it
Thanks man
I had the phearable 1.5 tune on my 1.5t and I loved it. I was also a little skeptical about it for my fk8 cuz everyone's against ots tunes for this platform. I got my phearable tune the other day and wow... im impressed.
Happy you’re enjoying the tune bro! It’s definitely awesome
Hey Abe, just letting you know I came back to this video and pulled the trigger on Phearable's tune because of your content. The comparisons in this are so good for reference, stock vs bolt ons is good shit man. Can't wait to try it out, Hondata should be here this week. My FK8 is stock for the moment, I guarantee after I have this tune for a while I'll be adding bolt-ons, you know how it goes haha. Subscribed man, thanks for the review.
How are you liking the tune
you're inspiring me to save up as much as i can to afford a type r.
You’ll have one soon 💪🏼💪🏼
@@AbrahamAponte I was lucky enough to have gotten one for sticker before COVID. Just my two cents but keep saving and shopping for one out of state if necessary. A plane ticket and a few days off of work to drive it home are a lot cheaper than 10-15k of dealer markup. Don’t settle! Civic Si’s are nice for example but once you’re done with all of the mods,wheels,suspension,accessories….you could’ve just financed a Type R….with factory engineering. Then…you’ll have nothing but time thereafter to shape it into what you want.
Sorry….read message in chain. Tapped on wrong name. Type R is more attainable than you realize! Good luck Bro!!!
I bought the Phearable tune as well a few months ago. I really hate the part throttle mapping on it. Way too much power at low throttle inputs. I ended up switching back to my Ktuner stage 1.1 map and just upping the ignition timing for more power. Now I have the same full throttle power but with a much better partial throttle control. The phearable tune has pretty aggressive ignition timing compared to the Hondata and Ktuner maps. Thats where most of the extra power comes from in the Phearable tune.
Appreciate your input. No reason to reinvent the wheel. Nothing quite like heading down a dead end street. Seriously considering the Type R after the WRX reveal
@8:24 that 10 speed makes a massive difference. If the R had the same trans, the Accord would get walked
The accord is a 6spd manual as well
I got a FBO 19 type r and just got my Hondata flashpro, but I haven’t bought anything yet prob just get straight to the Pharable Stage 2 since I’m hearing way better results
Awesome video. Got me really thinking about trading in my Supra for a Type R now. Just had a baby so Type R will be more practical and it’ll still let me have some fun on the weekends lol
I would have definitely bought the Supra if I didn’t have 3 kids.
My brother went type r to Supra. There were regrets. Type r is stupidly good of a car.
Man that’s what makes this car so good you can track it drag it drive hard on back roads then turn around and still handle family matter and grocery’s with no problem it’s truly the most all around car out right now
This is my daily and I don't really want to install a loud exhaust. I was thinking of doing the Air intake and the phearable stage 2. What do you think?
Is the car able to put the power down? I want to do a stage 2 build but I don't know if it'll be worth it because the car is FWD.. there are times where even the stock tune is too much in 1st and 2nd gear
Thank you for the video this is very good info. Been on the fence weather I should get a custom tune or the phearable tune and you definitely convinced me well done on the video. Looking forward to your next one.
Happy my video helped you out 🙌🏼
If you can share a rough idea of the fuel trims you're seeing during normal driving that would be amazing. I have a half custom Hondata tune but I know the Stage 2 would add more power. Just want to make sure it's as healthy for the car as possible
Good honest review! Ive been going crazy contemplating whether I should jailbreak and phearabble tune my Fk8. Thing is I’m kinda like you in the sense that I wanted to keep it stock mainly for the warranty. So far just have PRL HVI lol
You can only stay stock for so long lol. It’s hard not to scratch the mod itch.
@@AbrahamAponte I installed the PRL HVI on my R about a month ago and this morning it threw a “ rev match system problem” and a “emissions system problem” now I literally don’t have any rev match at all although the car runs fine. I’m completely stock aside from the intake and got about 2200 on the car. Now I’m really thinking get a hondata jailbreak/tune in order to run the HVI? Just haven’t heard or seen anyone on UA-cam having this issue after just a PRL intake any thoughts? I am bringing it back to Honda just to be safe. Question is should I put the stock air intake back in the car In order to avoid a smart ass tech pointing their finger at PRL intake?
@@Hypebeast305 Try unplugging the battery for about 10 minutes and see what happens. From what I have seen in the past, an intake does not void warranty unless it is directly causing the issue. I highly doubt the intake is the problem. This happened to me once before I had Hondata and removing the battery terminals for 10 minutes worked for me.
@@AbrahamAponte worked after leaving the battery unplugged for a good hour lol and a couple drive cycles later no codes or lights! Now ill for sure be getting the phearable tune next. Curious to see how much of a difference the car will make being basically stock with that John Vega tune. I was going to get the PRl intercooler next and downpipe before tuning but I rather just go with the tune before hand in order to avoid any future issues lol. Thanks for the advice man
@@Hypebeast305 happy I can help. The tune will definitely make a huge difference
Wish they could do a tune on 94 for canadian cars
Amazing content brother! Cant wait to see what you do with her!
Thanks bro!
Great video, I love the comparison videos. Any idea what the phearable stage two with dp intercooler and intake would trap in the 1/4 mile on 93 octane? If we are talking 380whp in something that weights 3110, I would have to assume 115+ mph
Hey 🤟. I enjoyed with your video! I've also seen more videos from your channel and they are really good 😃. Greetings from Spain ✌️
I appreciate the support! 🙏🏼🙌🏼
Nice Job. Im going to do stage 2 too. For the Moment my fk8 has stage 1+
Thank you Abe, such a helpful video.
No problem
Certifierd Driver Mod 👑
i flashed this tune onto my car , and had an CEL , did you get any? i also seen where the email said i may need to do a revision , so im gonna try that . this process has drove me nuts bc i took my 2021 fk8 to a local tuner and they had no clue what they was doing .and when i came back to get my car is was horrible felt better when it was stock all kinds of issues .
Hey Abe awesome video!! I’m completely stock and don’t have Ktuner or anything can i get the tune? Or do I need the mods and ktuner and what if I want to add the bolt ons later?
You would need Ktuner or Hondata. You do not need bolt ons to use the tune.
nice setup , well done ,do you think lighten wheels and less drag wing can accellerate better and faster top end ? ,at least engine setup will stay as is
Just ordered mine, been contemplating for a few weeks and this helped me pull the trigger. What octane are you running? I’m stuck with crappy 91, so I may add a gallon of e85.
I’m on 93 octane, luckily it’s pretty standard in Florida
Nice video, like the short clips of the races 👍
How has your car held up with the tune, 2 years later? Great video btw!!
Great review! Did you have to pay for the reutned files for additional mods you installed?
On the before and after race vid against the accord at 8mins. Your before tune on hondata was the 91 or 93 octane hondata tune?
93
Good stuff bro just ordered mine. Gonna go for the first drive later on 😎
Hell yeah man, you’re gonna enjoy it!
By chance what peak boost you hitting?
@@anthonyramirez1564 25-26
@@anthonyramirez1564 depends on what gear I’m in
Fasho bro I’m hitting 21 gonna check my charge pipes again
Well done!
2019 CTR
Prl race intake
Prl down pipe
RV6 front pipe
93oct
Curious how much performance gain I’ll get with these mods!
I’d recommend adding an intercooler, you’ll get heat soak quick on hotter days with those mods and a tune
I just pherable flashed mine it’s insane but it’s been so hot lately
Awesome man! And yeah these cars heat soak fast! Give it a rip at night.
How much power is your car making HP and torque and how reliable is it now? How many miles you put on her since the fearable tune
How does this compare to a custom tune...price,hp,tq, reliability. Also how much is the retune cost from pherable for down the road.
From my experience, I don’t see the need now to get a custom tune as long as I’m on 93 pump gas with no additional mods. The Phearable tune has performed just as good as a custom tune on 93. At a price point of $250 I can’t complain. Phearable did not charge me for an updated tune when I bought bolt ons.
Just curious how reliable will your car still be after installing this tune Completly stock . i wanna wake my type r up a little more but i dont wanna modify it and i want it to remain reliable for years to come whats your take ?
The tune is extremely reliable
When you bought the phearable did you get the street or race throttle mapping??? I cant decide which one to get
Hey man I’m thingking of getting the tune. Which one did u get street or race tune on the throttle mapping?
great review abe, ill be there soon.
Thanks man 💪🏼
Did you get race or street mapping? I’m stock and want to know which you recommend? Thanks
Hey hi from Scotland 🏴 just bought a hondata flash Pro for my type R, once I've unlocked my ecu do I just buy the tune from phearable even if I am stock?
Yes, you can use the tune on your stock car which will give you a pretty nice bump in horsepower.
@@AbrahamAponte thanks for replying mate! I will maybe do a comparison video. Hearing amazing things about phearables tune 👌🙌
How do you switch from BAR to PSI on the cluster ?? In fk8
That intro track is juicy as hell
😎
Love them SC Si's
Still running great? I just picked up my FK8 early June and already have the tuning itch. I had a Ktuned FK7 blow up on me a couple years ago - covered under warranty. I'm terrified of that happening again and not getting so lucky haha.
Still running strong man. The K20c1 is a lot more durable than the L15. You should not have any issues with the Phearable tune.
@@AbrahamAponte what the max boost you see with phearable stge2?
@@AbrahamAponte Great to hear. Probably will purchase soon then, those pulls look crazy compared to stock!
Do you need to upgrade any other components or can I do a tune on the stock from factory car
Nope, no need to upgrade parts to run the tune. Just specify that when making your purchase.
That tuned for those prl parts only? Pheurable website, its was dynod using prls)
The tune works with other similar bolt ons as well
After you buy the tune and upload it, if you add parts afterwards is it free to make the changes to the tune?
Yes. You just click on the boxes/mods that you’ve added and the tune will adjust accordingly.
Can you be completely bone stock and still make this power with just the tune?
Is the car still running strong with no issues?
So what’s the difference in stage 1 and stage 2
Hey can I use the phearable stage two tune if I only install prl high volume race intake and prl race inlet?
yes if you go to their website and go to add it to cart it will leave a section for u to fill out a list of mods you have currently, or will have on the car at time of tune install. I just bought mine and i have prl 3" down pipe, prl hvi race maf housing
Is the hp numbers for the tune in wheel hp? Or crank
wheel
Hi was the 91 or 93 octane version of the tune?
93
Any 1/4 mile runs? If so, results?
What throttle mapping did you go with? street or race?
at the time of this review these options were not available.
Same thing as a custom tune , only thing is in a custom tune theres other things that come to check and thats nock at diferent rpm pools every car is diferent even though they are the same model car NO TUNE IS BETTER THAN A CUSTOM TUNE ON A DYNO
I’ve experienced no knock at all. I agree that’s it’s not the same thing as a custom tune in definition, but it’s been running really good as if it was one.
What area in Florida are you in? I have the same mods as you minus the Phearable tune
South Florida
@@AbrahamAponte bro it’s me olivercito 😂
@@hirpmvtec lmfao!
What engine do you have
Where is this car now?
I sold it
@@AbrahamAponte 😢 thanks
how much psi boost does it go to now?
Phearable is trash. That’s why he doesn’t respond. Lmao
Hows the datalog look on tune?
I haven't datalogged but I monitor the important sensors on my head unit through Hondata and everything is great. Short term fuel trims are on point and no knocks at all even on back to back pulls.
Thank you so much bro . I order too..
Powermetric is the best tune out
pretty sure tunes void your warranty. so yeah ill wait a few years. im not youtube ballin
That first race you only won because that camaro missed a gear
yeah i need to get this tune lmaoo !
