HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- How fast is the 10th Gen Honda Accord 0-60 mph w/ the KTUNER STAGE 2 ECU TUNE? We're using the Dragy performance meter (link below) to test our project car, the 2019 Honda Accord 2.0 Touring 0-60 mph acceleration times - how much faster 0-60 mph does the KTuner Stage 2 tune make the 10th Gen (2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022) Honda Accord? Follow along on our performance modification journey as we install and dyno test various Honda Accord FBO performance mods, including air intakes, downpipes, exhausts, ECU tunes (KTuner and Phearable), intercooler, upgraded turbos, and more!!!
We now put a 10th Gen (2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022) Honda Accord - our 2019 Honda Accord 2.0 (10 auto) project car to the infamous 0-60mph acceleration test using our Dragy Performance Meter, before continuing on our modification journey to add even more power to our project car. Next up, we plan to test the KTuner Stage 2 with the PRL High Volume Air Intake (HVI) to find out how much additional horsepower (if any) can be gained, and to see if it will further improve our project car's acceleration times?!?

I really enjoy the scientific, grown-up approach to your methods & videos. No hype or confirmation bias, just straight facts, data and results.
Thank you, Bird! I do try to make the videos informative and neutral in a laid back manner 👍
currently have a 2010 accord v6, love it, nice and fast. But I cant wait for the day I can afford a 10TH gen 2.0t
Nice to see how these numbers translate in real world driving.
👍
This is such useful information. I plan on modding my 2.0T accord after the warranty expires and these vids show me what works and what doesn't. Thanks!
I’m glad to hear that 👍. I hope to show exactly what you’re getting in return for your hard earned money 😉
Hey man love the comparison videos your making. I would love to see that HVI on stage 2 to see the difference. So just a fun fact my friend has a 10th gen which we insstalled a k and n and also did a stage 2 ktuner . He always spinned a lot from the dig but when he rode with me as passenger I’m a bigger guy 280lbs his traction in front increased dramatically and he still had more power than stock and better traction kind of the best from both worlds. So in conclusion the next mod is a passenger for traction control 🤣
So when are you available to help improve my traction 😉
I own a 2019 2.0t sport. I did some math at your sea level you lose about 15-17% of power so mathematically if you were where I live with my sea level you would bave a 0-60 of around 4.3-4.6 0-60! The car is truly phenomenal mechanically and aesthetically. I really enjoyed this video, thank you for it.
To add; stock, you would get about 210-225hp with your current elevation. The car is rated for about 252hp.
Although I love living in Colorado, sometimes I do miss sea level for this reason.
Hey Chad, Really appreciate you doing this KTuner journey for us all too see, I have a 09 V6 Accord, Getting KTuner very soon it'll be very interesting too see how it goes!
My pleasure! Thank you for leaving a positive comment, and good luck with your Accord.
I had a FBO 08 accord coupe 6/6 with the ZDX intake/tb lightweight wheels wide tires.. best 1/4 I ever pulled was a 14.3.. these 2.0 accords are the way.
Thank you 🙏🏽. Your hard work 😓 helps us a lot. 🙅🏾♂️
I’m glad to hear that. Thank you for your support 👍
Thanks for another informative video Chad! Thanks for doing the PRL hvi for the next vid, I would also be curious to see the same type of video with phearable stage three. Thanks again man!!
I’m glad to hear that you’re enjoying the videos. I do plan on integrating the Phearable Stage 3 into the testing process 👍. Thanks for your support and for leaving a supportive comment 😁
That altitude definitely hinders performance, but there’s no denying the gains translated to faster 0-60 times. Really looking forward to the PRL HVI + Stage 2 dyno results!
What do you think will be the results?
@@TheLemonFactor great question. Part of me thinks the intake still won’t make nearly what PRL advertises, but I think it’ll make more than it did on the stock tune. I’ll guess the intake will be good for +8hp/8tq over OEM intake with the Stage 2 tune.
That sounds reasonable - I would be happy with that. 🤞
I’m very interested to see how the next video comes out with the whole air intake system!! Hopefully it shows really good improvement 0-60 I’m excited to see how it turns out so I know what I need to do next to my car!
Hang tight… coming soon 😉
I emailed PRL and they said the stock tune is ready to take mods, first one they mentioned was intake kit. Good luck. Will use your vid for data!
😃
I wonder what the difference between stage 2 and phereable stage 3 will be. Especially with all the intakes. Honesty I’m always excited to watch ur videos! Keep up the good work
Thank you for the support 👍. We’ll find out soon how tha KTuner Stg 2 compares to the Phearable Stage 3 😁
great overall review on this drag 🏎 💨 💨 💨
😁. Thank you for the positive comment 😉
Nice vid! I have a 2020 2.0T Sport and although I would love to play around with tuning, I do wonder what effect it might have on the engine long term. I'm sure I just need to visit some vehicle boards, etc., as I am sure this has been talked about a ton. Cheers, Rich.
Thank you, Rich! I’m glad you liked the video 😁👍
Nice video, thanks for uploading.
Thank you for watching 😁. Hopefully you subscribed too 😉
So there’s this option in Ktuner that allows you to remove the rpm limit when brake torquing, forgot what it’s called tho but it’s a quick toggle
Good to know, thank you 👍 however, I don’t know that I’d want to increase it anymore than it’s currently at 🤔
Before u throw the air intake in I promise u if you leave everything stock and just throw in a k&n air filter u will see more differences in the 0-60 not much but it is a difference. Would love to see that video
You might want to checkout the air intake testing video series I recently completed - you can find in on the channel playlist 👍
I would like to buy a K-TUNER for my accord 2.0 but I see that most of those who buy them also upgrade the AIR intake, Air interculer and in my car I think it would not be worth it because here in the city there is a lot of traffic And buying one would take me buying all the others, so I start thinking about what if the engine overheats or breaks down.
Hey Chad, when you're changing maps/tune, do you flash it back to factory before you upload the new map/tune or do you just overwrite the previous with the new map/tune. Thank you and keep up the good work.
You can simply upload a different tune 👍
Love your videos lemon, I am debating ktune or hondata with my 6mt 2.0t, any thoughts?
Both are capable. I have used Hondata in the past (different platform) with no problems. If you plan on getting a custom tune, I would go with whoever your tuner has the most experience with. As you know, I have the KTuner and currently have no regrets 👍
I’m surprised that my 2015 V6 has a higher redline
Would love to see the difference some sticky tires make
Me too 😉
Can a civic si posi unit be swapped in or would it even make a dif . I can def feel the dif in my buddys ultra tuned si . May be trading my accord for the new si . I like it .
@@TheLemonFactor me too!
You should have launched the car from 2nd gear. This works way better for my 0-60 launches
What’s the DA and were you using 93 or 91 fuel? My stock 2020 2.0T Sport did almost identical 0-60 when it was stock before I tuned it. I only ran 93 E10 and we have a typical ~50-80ft DA or less so engines do run well in this air but still I would have thought even the OTS tune would have really improved the 0-60. I never ran the Ktuner maps to try, I went right to a remote tune.
I just brought a 1.5 sport se. I should’ve brought the 2.0 but dealerships near me didn’t have any. I love my 1.5 with the cvt but is it possible for me to do a tune as well. Granted yes it’s a 1.5 why tune it? I mainly just want it to be a bit faster. Love the videos.
If you do decide to tune it, Ive heard that the cvt is *not* reliable at all for tuning, but i’ve heard of people just running stage one and being fine.
Same boat as you bro 🤣🥹 should have just bought the 2.0 lol but ive seen this one guy on youtube go stage 3 on a 1.5 cvt accord n he says its reliable so theres some hope for us cvt boys lol
I too have heard that the weak link is the CVT. However, as I have the 2.0 with the 10 AT, I have not looked into it in any detail 🤷♂️
@@admissive3623 yeah that’s what I heard to sadly.
@@Xccord yeah. Oh well though my accord is going to last me a long time. Still going to baby it!
Have you tried the stage 1? I hear it's an ok tune without the top end dropping off feeling, and I think you don't have to worry much about traction and just mash the pedal.
I have not. I prefer to find ways to make usable the additional horsepower and torque such as getting stickier tires.
Stage 1 is just as quick. It has a more linear torque delivery than stage 2. Stage 2 puts more stress on the engine and turbo by targeting high boost in low rpms and that’s why you feel huge amounts of torque at low rpms
@@padapaypofx3039 Seems like stage 2 would put extra wear & tear on the turbo over time...
Hey Chad hopefully you see this, I am just wondering what all should someone upgrade internally on the car before tuning to stage 2? I am planning to throw a PRL high volume intake into my car I also have a Borla S Type Cat Back Exhaust. I am also planning on upgrading the downpipe and front pipe. Are there any requirements to upgrade before tuning the vehicle?
You don't need any other mods in order to run the KTUNER Stage 2 OTS map. The other mods you mention will help, but not necessary, and won't add significantly to your horsepower gains. With that said, I would however highly recommend upgrading the intercooler. Checkout the channel page for videos in which I dyno test various mods.
My 21 TLX A-Spec runs a Phearable stage 3 and get next to no traction when launched aggressively off the line. ☹️
That AWD option would have come in handy 🙂
Do I have this right? with the stage 2 K tune.
Turn off traction control and start in 2nd gear for best results.?
Generally speaking, yes 👍
How much would coilovers help with traction, are they worth it, would they ride too harsh for street performance, or are they just overhyped snake oil ??
Strictly in regards to traction... some, but not a ton. They help prevent the squat of the car under acceleration, which will raise up the front and lesson the downward force on the front tires, which in turn reduces your traction. Now with that said, with some cars, that very noticeable, but at least with my Touring there wasn't a large amount of squat to begin with. A lot of people opt for coilovers or springs for better cornering, and of course for ascetic reasons.
Are you going to test out the new PRL v2 compare to the PRL V1 intake ?
I don’t plan on it as the change in the plastic scoop is not going to make a difference. However, if you or PRL would like to provide one, I’d be more than happy to test it.
Do you think you can dyno test the new prl hvi v2 for the accord?
I don’t plan on it as the only change is to the front plastic ductwork, which is not going to result in any additional horsepower. However, if you’d like to send me one I’d be more than happy to dyno test it.
@@TheLemonFactor Ah ok
I rlly wana debating on just selling my1.5 for a 2.0 seems sm fun i hate this cvt
😮😔
Do the Continentals hook up any better than the stock Michelins? I'm due for tires and considering the PureContact LS as a replacement.
They are noticeably better than the stock Michelins, but that's not saying a lot. I am happy with the step up in overall performance the PureContact LS provides, and their longevity. However, if you're looking for a much stickier tire, you might want to consider some others.
@@TheLemonFactor Thanks. I've been a Michelin guy for years but I just don't like these tires.
Continental also makes an ultra high performance all season tire with good reviews but that just sounds a bit overkill on my stock Accord. I'm planning on staying stock until my warranty is up next year and then I'm thinking about the KTuner.
I hear you. I like Michelin’s as well, but the stock Accord tires are very underwhelming. I have used Continental DSW 06 in the past with good results 👍
Hello how are you ,
What mods would you recommend for an 8th Honda Accord 2.4L?
Unfortunately I am not familiar enough with the 8th Gen Honda Accord 🤷♂️
@@TheLemonFactorthank you , I followed and watched your video thinking l was going to get a 2.0 but ended up with a 8th gen 😂
@754123000 I do hope you find the information you’re looking for 👍
Throw some indy 500s on the front and traction should be much better and I bet you get low 5s
You’re absolutely right 👍. Need some good stickies 😁
Does it still take regular gas? like 87 or do you have to use premium?
Good question. Yes, you are required to use premium fuel with the ECU tunes.
Yo boss so the following question doesn’t have to do with the video but i think i have a boost leak or my vtec isn’t really working. I have some ideas of what it could be starting off with when i installed my borla exhaust I didn’t instal the gasket that connects the catback exhaust to the oem mid pipe (i think that’s what it’s called) causing me to have an exhaust leak reason why I didn’t install it was cause the local Auto Zone didn’t have them in stock but could an exhaust leak cause my vtec to act up? Or my oil life being low?
I can’t see why changing your cat-back exhaust would have any impact on your boost, vtec, or oil. What symptoms are you experiencing?
@@TheLemonFactor well when i do a dig after installing my intercooler and exhaust it launches good but when it hits that second/third gear for whatever reason it feels like it stalls out and loses power noticeably. I was saying though could low oil life cause a lack of vtec power or maybe having an exhausting leak cause me to lose power. (When i do rolls it feels like the horsepower is there but im lacking torque. The symptoms kicked in about a week after installing my intercooler and exhaust.
Ahhh... you didn't mention the intercooler. If you upgraded your intercooler at the same time as the exhaust, it's most likely a leak in one of your intercooler fittings. Go through and make sure everything is secured and well clamped down as you may have a leak there. Having low oil life isn't going to impact your power in a way you'd notice.
And do you know how much horsepower is gained with the stage 2?

I have ktunerv2 i want to factory reset can i just do on the ktuner monitors screen instead of using a laptop?
You can flash the car with any tune directly from the V2 unit, without needing to involve a laptop. This is of course assuming you’ve loaded the tune to the unit. With that said, by default, the “factory” tune should already be loaded and visible as an option 👍
@@TheLemonFactor cool thanks
Are the shifter pedals more responsive, or it's still a lag fest?
Unfortunately the tune doesn’t change the transmission behavior 🤷♂️🫤
Please try it with the phearable
It’ll be coming. Stay tuned 🙂
I thought tuners would bring marked performance improvements. Sure you can mod things like downpipes, intake, and the like, but what will it take to drop it to low 4 second range?
A limited slip differential which seems to only be an option (as of now) for the 6-speed manual
Low 4 sec is going to be very difficult with a front wheel drive car, with no traction control, no differential, and a turbo that provides peak torque so low in the RPMs 🤷♂️
@Jay G These are all extremely valid points, it’s just hard to get under 5 seconds even with all these upgrades without a limited slip diff
@Jay G Thanks for the reply. So a tuner will take it from whatever it is 0-60 now to low 5 or something?
@Jay G not possible to my knowledge
Can you do ktuner 1.2v
Are you referring to the stage 1 ECU tune?
My question is y not just twin turbo this
🤔🤷♂️
Wtf, with stage 2 your zero to 60 worse then stock, why??
My 0-60mph acceleration numbers will always be slower (approx. 0.5-0.6sec) as i'm at high altitude (~6,000ft) with lower pressure and less oxygen. During this testing the car was faster than stock by ~0.3sec. If you watch the other videos in which I test the 0-60mph with additional mods / tunes you'll see the times continue to get faster. If you want to compare to sea level / magazine test numbers, take the delta / improvement in times and compare.
I heard twerk 😂
Turn traction control off 😂
The traction control is fully disabled 🙄
