Stock size. They 265/30/19

Yes 15mm and yeah I agree. Best setup would have been 15mm front and 20mm rear.

Nothing crazy. Just a ratchet with an extention and some sockets will do the job. Plyers for some of the OEM clamps.

My guess its cuz the R is a track car and alot of people that have them actually take them to the track and Honda don't want them to get blinded by the reflection of a glossy dash. I haven't had it bother me yet. I think my seating possision helps with that.

Yeah that's OEM wheel and tire

I used a new OEM one since everyone kept saying the one from the kit sucks lol.

U can finish fully tightening by turning the allen key and holding the nut with a wrench. Does not have to only be "tighten nut while holding allen key like i show i did for the bottom one.

I Wish I could help but Idk. I don't even remeber this install. It was done back in 2019 lol.

Its applying more then enough lol but in all seriousness I do use a torque wrench. Just didn't put it in the video.

@@MoisesEmpire too much torque and risk stretching the threads of the studs. Simply looking out for your safety 🙏

Thanks. I appreciate that.

Thanks! I really appreciate that!

Yeah apparently these are parts that only really benefit the car if your gonna tune it or just really want the intake turbo noises.

@@MoisesEmpire Oh ok I do have k tuner but I don't have it flashed as of now but thx for the content

Thanks! Im holding off on an inlet cuz I plan on getting the new RV6 R660 AS turbo and as you know it comes with an inlet pipe. So i rather wait on that.

@@MoisesEmpire Even better, let me know when you are ready for that, i will take care of you

@axionind thanks ill for sure let you know.

Yeah eventually but ima have them custom made.

@@MoisesEmpire oh nice! btw, where do u get ur carbon fiber bits from? ive been thinking of getting for my FL5, i get my unit next week!

@grombs5911 I get them from Carbonsixthelement on Instagram. They custom make parts and so everything is made to order and can take 2 to 3 months to get after you make your order.

Yeah a downpipe would definitely help. I'll get one after the Hondata flash pro.

​@MoisesEmpire I'm going to wait on tuning for 2-3 years. I wanna see which tunes are proving to be reliable over time and which ones are causing problems. So far, I haven't heard of any FL5s having engine or transmission problems but they haven't racked up many miles yet .

All those off the shelf tunes will be really reliable since they don't push the car to the max. Its the custom tunes that really push the car and can lead to problems if they are not done correctly.

That's what I'm thinking too.

42,000 miles so far. 20,000 on a phearable stage 2 tune. No issues yet... ​@@brhardi48326

Its only 3 mods but yeah 296 was best run. I gained some tourqe from the parts but not anymore peak power. Apparently Ima need a tune for that.

Turns out the type R door panel trim is a different shape internally from the regular civics so i had to wait for the company to get some type R door panels so they can make them in carbon to the correct shape. They now have it available but i haven't bought them yet. I Need money lol.

No but you should.

Glad I could help!

Would have been nice not to need to remove it but the screws that hold it in place are right in front of the crash bar so there isn't any room to be able to remove the screws from underneath the car. Believe me i tried to do it without removing the bumper lol.

@@MoisesEmpire Good to know, thanks.

Your welcome! Hope u love them as much as i do

@@MoisesEmpire love it , my cousin has an fl5 too and after he saw mine installed he immediately ordered it too

Lol nice hope u guys used my code to save some money

@@MoisesEmpire we did , the video is what got me interested in swapping them

@giovannymelendez8004 cool man. Glad you liked them. That code can be used at any time on any parts from their site so make sure u save it for future use if u ever wanna get anything else.

I don't think so but then again I don't live in an area with alot of twisty roads so I haven't really been able to push the car during turns enough to notice any understeer.

That's too permanent for me. I like easy to remove when needed. Also since those are a much stronger hold, it's more likely for your bumper to get messed up if the lip ever hits anything. Self tapping screws and 3m tape work just fine for this. Been over 100mph a few times and lip is still holding strong.

Thanks! Yeah that was me lol I remeber seeing u.

That rubber hose was in the throttle body

No i didn't have to upgrade anything else but ofcourse it helps to be full bolt ons already before getting a bigger turbo so that u can get the most power out of the turbo. After time a better clutch maybe re required tho since a bigger turbo will make more tourque and the clutches in these cars arent the best since they not made for performance.

@@MoisesEmpire ok cool thank you for your answer buddy. And what about the rods? Are the oem strong enough for a drop in turbo like the w2 for example?

@julienvial959 yes the W2 is what I had in my car and it never upgraded the rods. As long as your tuner doesn't tune the tourqe over 300 you will be fine. Always remember that the parts like bigger drop in turbos aren't what cause damage to a car, its how they are tuned that can cause damage.

@@MoisesEmpire cool thank you so much for you explanation your a gent really!!! I have the Ktuner with TSP so I will have to see with them.

Hard to capture on camera but its a noticable difference. 15mm is perfect for the front for a flush look but I do wish I would have done 20mm in the rear. But its temporary till I get some wheels so not a huge deal to me.

@@MoisesEmpire yeah no worries bro. I totally get it because I got the 2.0 T Honda Accord not too long ago and I have been seeing everyone getting the 25 mm by Bonoss And they actually come out a lot more stock and then I seen. They also had a 30 mm so I’m gonna go with that to get them to look a lot more flush.

Wow 30mm, Thats huge. Im guessing the accord wheels are pretty narrow?

@@MoisesEmpire I seen videos of the 25 mm and I was like nahh I wanna bump it up a little more

Thats weird. Every bulb I've ever bought from them have fit tight.

@@MoisesEmpireyep sadly but they sent me a different paid ig they sent me the older version of the bulb hopefully it works i haven't put it on it yet!

I got it on ebay cuz its was a little cheaper then the dealer at the time. Not aure about now. This video is over 4 years old

I got it last April and paid $5k over. I hear now you can find it cheaper tho.

@@MoisesEmpire still not bad. Market is always moving. Did well bro

Ebay. Link in the description

I think they sound great but I do have them powered by an amp and not just the radio so im sure there is a bit of a difference between how yours sound and how mine sound.

@@MoisesEmpire no doubt! No amp on mine

The wrap is made by Avery Dennison and it's called dark green pearl.

Your welcome! Im glad I was able to help.

Yes its still great. Its an OEM part from Honda so fit and finish is perfect but no its not worth $700. I got mine for $550 if i remeber correctly. But if i could go back in time id have got one aftermarket like from company Carbonsixthelement. Much cheaper and still great quality and fitment.

U just re use the one that's on the car already. Idk what size it is.

Thanks!

No they are not. The Type R comes with Brembos from factory.

@@MoisesEmpire damn :( i wish accords did that shit ahaha appreciate that bro

Lol yeah if honda ever decides to turn the accord into a performance car then im sure they will add them.

I think so. I did this a few months ago so i don't really remeber. I'd suggest you Watch the video and you'll see step by step everything that I had to do. If i did it'll show in the video.

No u don't need a tune for a clutch install.

@@MoisesEmpire okay. I ask because this shop said I would need to buy a tuner (hondata) and tune it since I’m replacing the flywheel as well . Thank you tho

@chicas96 going by my experience with my car, a tune is not needed for that. I changed mine and did not tune it.

On the rear yes I think 20mm would have been a little better but the front is perfect with 15mm.
