      Mugen 200 is a bodykit only car with 198bhp (officially), the Mugen M20 is a 240bhp modified variant with only 20 made. One of those 20 was turned into a 2.2 by a company in Northampton and produces 260bhp. The only other Civic Mugen 8th gen is the JDM FD2 Mugen RR which has the same engine mods as the M20 240bhp FN2.

    I know the reason for the engine start button
    The older cars were so quiet whilst running that sometimes you’d try to turn the car on again, whilst it was already running which would result in the awful ignition scream 😱
    With the new setup you can’t make that error.
    If your press it and it’s already on, no drama and you won’t be turning the engine off in error, when you thought you were starting it
    if you want it off, use the keys to turn it off 🤩

  • @EvoBeard
    @EvoBeard 2 роки тому +27

    Also regarding performance, as you and someone else stated, it probably needs a map. The K20s are beastly engines but they're also fickle beasts. If you add intake/exhaust flow it can hamper the engine both with and without a tune, as it needs to be optimally balanced.
    I'd throw it to VRS or better yet the boys at @Dynodaze deal with these all day long so you get the most of this FN2 both performance and monetary. 👍

    It's often said not to decat the FN2 without remapping the ECU to go with it. Wonder if that had some kind of affect to make this model slower. Also depends what exhaust it has too, it sounds like it has more than just a decat and may have a thinner restrictive exhaust.

    K20s shouldn't really be decatted without mapping, it can lead to engine knock unfortunately as I've seen before and read about it as well. It's happened enough times that people on groups are advised not to decat long before mapping, or to go exhaust manifold/decat pipe and then map it right away.

    I'd say 26 -27 MPG would be about average MPG for non motorway driving.

    I wonder if it’s a genuine mugen spoiler or wether it’s a fugen spoiler. If it’s genuine I would make a good offer for it

    I've been looking for a 2.2 version of this car but never have any luck

      Only one 2.2 made ever by a company in Northampton, that's why. Even the M20 2.0 version is worth stupid money, it's a collectors car. Looking at like £50k+ if you can even find one.

    En sevdiğim Civic TypeR kasası.Tasarımda birkaç küçük değişiklikle bugün bile rahatlıkla satılabilecek kadar güzel bir otomobil.Arkada çift üçgen salıncaklı bir süspansiyon, daha uzun bir dingil mesafesi ve daha büyük bir arka kapı ile çok daha harika bir otomobil haline getirilebilir ve piyasaya sürülebilir.Bi dene HONDA !!!

    First of all ....You have the M200 . this Mugen has no more extra ponies than the standard. (Its not the M20.)
    Second...you have 19 inch rims , which is a larger rolling diameter than the 18inch ones on the normal type R..so , you are not gonna be as quick 0-60 .
    Third...you cant launch that car for shit...you are boggin down...send the revs to the soft limiter and let her go from there dude.
