It's 16.5psi of boost from the stock 1.5T.  More boost vs. a BMW 320/520i smile.gif

Got a colleague who's classmate working in Honda 3S.

I asked him whether they can detect if I install Racechip.

He told me that SC can't detect but they will know if suddenly your boost gone higher.

I asked, if can't detect, how you know I tampered the system? He say SC no proof but deliberately delay your claim.

So, if you have faith your car won't breakdown with warranty period, can buy one.. I was like hmm.gif

Aiya, racechip is just plug and play.. U can even do it yourself if u don't mind the little effort before sending the car for service or warranty claim..

No bro.

I've been interested in Racechip Ultimate for months and wanted to buy one.

SC able to check what you have done with your car like how fast you went, how many boost and how many times you reach top speed. They will able to detect certain extraordinary boost or HP gained. This technology actually found in Apexi RSM, 10 years ago.

If your engine or GB got problem due to Racechip, you can unplug and send to SC for claim if you still under 5 years warranty but SC will keep your car on hold because they will run more test. Also, take note that SC system is linked and they will record down what you've been servicing.

The L15B7 is new and honestly, most of the mechanic told me that they don't know how durable it is, especially mated with CVT GB. It might not have problems now, but doesn't mean it won't for 3-4 years down the road.

New owner here.

Any idea where to get the twinslock pedal lock (or any other good pedal lock brands)

Besides pedal lock any other recommended security system to install?

Personally i put high importance when it comes to security. Not so stingy when it comes to this
*
You can do 3 things.

a. Add security film, for protection and delay the thief to steal.

b. Install tracker like Connex. Good to track your car.

c. Buy agreed amount insurance.

Seems like got some certification or something. Alot of positive review from users.

It's just using OBD to draw voltage, shouldn't be any problems?
Dunno the wire will be long enough or not since its design to reach OBD socket only. Maybe will search for other models then.

Better don't. High risk. User maybe are employees.

1st of all, your expectation is right on $130K car. The problem is with CKD car. Lack/bad QC by local management.
I got 4 defects and one of them is (2) on the driver door. My is white pearl and therefore can easily see the black color paint (the 1st layer paint) on 1 area on the door.

Other defects are
9) Broken rubber on the front bonet
10) driver seat power adjuster pop out
11) Wires under the driver seat drop out

Like you, disappointed with this Honda Civic. Will consider Honda car in the future... UNLIKELY!

I said the same thing 10 years ago. Now, sell Mazda 3 for Civic. mega_shok.gif yawn.gif

Hi guys.. am expecting my 1.8 MS civic this coming friday.. and was thinking to add Modulo BK (or atleast ducktail) at outside acc shop.. I am well aware that my action will cost me my warranty being void but can someone here can clarify or confirm which part's warranty are gonna affected?

like for spoiler since there's some electrical works done and punching holes onto the bonet, there goes the warranty for the whole bonet and and tail lights(i believe the installer gonna pull the wire for spoiler light from here).

but other part of bodykits? rear, side and front skirting will affecting what actually?
*
Rear bonnet and tail lights is not the main concern.

Don't add like Hondata or Racechip. These will void engine and GB warranty and it's expensive.

Not sure if I'm the 1st that meet this problem, this morning I found that my center display start having problem cry.gif
It will leave some shadow of the previous interface at the current view......
I also found that the "Red" color was less visible, everything looks very pixelated.
Pls see the photo below for clearer picture....

I need some advice, did I need to remove the by-pass Y cable b4 send to warranty?
Will Honda change the whole unit or just the display? icon_question.gif

Suggest you remove the by-pass cable. Avoid kacau

I may be wrong
But if unnoticed correctly, that dim white light only on if our headlight is on, as if night or dark time

Recently noticed that the alignment is off. hmm.gif

Is it because of the tire? Because I did my alignment a month ago.

your car pull to one side when hands off from steering?

Didn't. But as driving highway, seem the steer accuracy a bit off, especially when corner at 80km/h onwards. hmm.gif
