@@Capsainn maybe but compared to the r18 the k20 holds that lower, angrier sort of note for a while before it sounds like a regular 4banger honda at higher rpms. this car kinda sounded like that, at least from the inside it sounded more like an Si than an r18 to me. wish i still had that lx sometimes😂
I own a R18 EX. since I learned how to drive stick and I would rather have an Si. this video shows that you can really build a Honda even its an Automatic. very clean 8th gen bro. nice wheels as well.
Thinking I was thinking this little Civic was going to be gutless but you put the pedal down the 1.8 l comes to life but you really have to keep the revs high to enjoy driving it fast
Thank you so much for this man you know your stuff and I love your videos... I was thinking of getting an SI because I have a 2006 LX bass coupe I just want some more power than this little 1.8 is putting down I haven't done any modifications except the k&N air filter and then exhaust and resonator delete

@@originaltruths2305 not really man, the r18 engine was built for gas economy and nothing else. You’re much better off getting an si if you really want a sporty experience
Really?? I thought u had to switch to a American ecu for the hondata to work same with my csx K20z2 because I don't have the type s k20z3 I can't seem to find a tuner to support it

Honestly one of the better N/A R18 sounds ive heard sick car bro
Shit u gotta hear mine bro
that first pull sounded like an si man… awesome car. you’re my role model for modifying my r18 lx, it’s my first manual
My guess is the air intake makes it “sound like an si” it makes the engine sound more prevalent

Loving the limiter bashing
Also fuel cut for the rev limiter just need to swap for spark cut instead
What do you mean?
@@eliezergutierrez2472 He simply means to shoot some flames upon limiter lol. Spark cut basically keeps your fuel going though strokes and as no spark burns no fuel, that fuel goes right into tailpipe, and kaboom!
you car looks amazing!
Do you get that weird stumble when the vtec switches or you shift from 1 to 2?
This isn't relevant to the video but where'd you get those headlight trim pieces? I've been looking and can't find them anywhere
its called, Headlights eyelids and u can get them from Ebay
Sounds great. What intake?
It was one from eBay lol

did the si fuel ejectors just fit right in on the r18?
Yes they do
@@blueeberrycivic9549 I got a 2006 ex coupe you know where I can order the si injectors
@@marcocaravantes422 i have an 06 ex manual also and i was wondering if it’s even worth it to mod the r18. i’m thinking about just saving up for an si
@@originaltruths2305 not really man, the r18 engine was built for gas economy and nothing else. You’re much better off getting an si if you really want a sporty experience
@@originaltruths2305 turbo the r18 to about 260-300 whp. Stock si is around 180ish wheel horse and weighs almost 300 pounds more.
What bumper are you using I see a lot of people using this type of bumper but I can’t find it
09-11 civic coupe bumper
dude what exhaust are you running?
Tsudo
You’re the dude that revs his honda under my window at 2am
no lol
Haha screaming, I can Rev my R18 to 8k all day! It's a Honda they like the RPMs. Haha jk
Wish they made hondata for the Canadian r18
they do i’m running it right now

What front bumper is that can you put a link to it or if it comes in a set the whole set
It’s a 09-11 civic coupe front bumper with a Honda factory performance lip I bought it all on eBay
sounds like a K20 kinda
Wow Súper 🔥🔥🔥💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Can u please shift that just hurt my heart
My bad
I wonder if he's still banging off the redline haha. Nice R18 I'm kidding around.
@@enhancedphysique6452 he’s probably not 😂 r18 blocks are absolutely dog shit
@@jasonlucero9692would you please specify why and which?
@@staidey5994i am on my second r18 engine right now , a lot of them are diagnosed with a cracked block
What exhaust?
Yo is that an r18 vtec crossover at 3:10 ??
It’s not a vtec crossover it’s some kind of intake ram air thing I’m not sure of the exact name
At 5300 rpms the inlet manifold switches from long runners to short runners. That’s what you hear
R18 doesn't have crossover
what size tires and rims are you running brodie?
Wheels are 17x9 and tires are 235/40/17
@@blueeberrycivic9549 does it rub at all?
where's did you find this tune
I bought it from etunez.com
Can it work with R20 as well?
The r18 injectors and passed down from the si
What is the size and offset of your wheels
Would this work with r18 that's automatic rather than stick?
Yes
Yeah, automatics should withstand upto 170-180hp.
What's your 2 step RPM set too 🤔
i believe he said 4,000
It at 4000
Thanks
Can this work on the R20A3?
You said you're running SI injectors? Easy installation? TIA.
Yeah it’s a pretty easy install just lube the o rings on the injectors it’ll help them slip in
i gotta r18 civic with a little over 200k miles. is it worth getting hondata?
Mine had 207k when I sold it
What’s the most hp you can gain after a tune & intake on a 2014 civic? Non si btw.
10-15hp
my dad has that same year but its a si
Did you delete the resonator?
No
Nice r 18
Can you show me your suspension when rim set up
I was on truhart coilovers, spc camber bolts, and Godspeed rear camber arms. The wheels are 17x9+22 front and 17x9+35 rear
Link for hondata?
How many hp can you get out of it
I am not all too sure because the car is etuned and not dyno tuned but it helps with torque and power for sure which these cars lack
@@blueeberrycivic9549 for reals bro I need look into this !!
@@blueeberrycivic9549 How does etuned work
Single cam ???
Of course
What year si injectors you on
2008 06-11 should all be the same
Hey you living in Birmingham I recognize the highway in your video 👍

Pay attention when you buy your hondata!!! Make sure you don't do what I did!!! I BOUGHT THE CARB COMPLIANT/NON RACE VERSION!!! I THOUGHT IT WAS ON SALE OR SOMETHING BECAUSE IT WAS BLACK FRIDAY🤡
