what do you guys think is better for a 05 type s

cai/h/e or cai + reflash

dont ask me why but i will not be getting kpro...

 

anyone? which will put out more power?

 

well i have cai/h/e love the way it sounds i wouldn't recommend reflashing it until you get a good amount of bolt-ons so you can feel a difference

 

my buddy told me not to run a RH with the reflash because it will run too lean on my 05 ...probably gonna get a cai + exhaust then reflash it since im not gonna mod it anymore in the future..i still want to know which route will put out more power anyone know?

 

ihe... done, reflash is useless,

 

Go with a tire upgrade. Tires are the only mod that can decerase stopping distances, incerase corering loads and cut 0-60 times....if you have a 02-04 type-s, go with 225/50-16...if on the other hand you have a 05-06, get 225/45-17's

 

what musclime said plus shift ****

 

This man speaks the truth!

I would also upgrade your brake pads to better bitting ones and then look at doing your suspension... those 3 things are what will make your car perform the most!

 

I would get tons of stickers!!! O_o each one is like 10whp lol haha, j/k.

Or you could do what this guy says ^^

If not, I would go CAI + Reflash since you don't have any future mods besides those planned.

 

compromise and go with i/e/reflash and call it a day

 

Intake and Race header
Without k-pro I still made around 23whp and it felt and sounded great. lol

But it's your car, your money... buy what you want!

 

Well, I know that an RSX Type S with an intake and catback dynoed at 152whp at DSG. If you do I/H/E, you should spend an extra 30 bucks and get an ebay test pipe and use the defouler trick on your secondary o2. The car being dynoed had the cat still.

 

I must of had a freak then? I made 219whp with I/RH/E and k-pro on a 05 Type-S

 

that's some nice numbers..i was thinking of a injen cai + exhaust + reflash would bring me up to around 190whp?

 

With a DC CAI, DC RH, HKS Hiper Exhaust, and a Hondata Stage 4 reflash I made 205whp on the dyno. This is on an 02-04 Model Type-S. In my opinion I'm satisfied with it.

 

I wouldn't worry to much about exhaust...
the 05 type-S is a great exhaust for performance! It's bigger than the 02-04 rsx-s. Go with intake and race header and reflash if you wish!
Best performance upgrade.

but if you want the sound buy the exhaust first

 

yea i wanted to go RH too but hondata told me 06-06 models will run to lean...thanks all for teh help

 

Well it's a really low reading dyno over their. Did you guys keep your cat converter? That car still had his and I bet K-Pro and Hondata really made the difference after slappin the bolt-ons on.
