2021 HONDA CIVIC TYPE R HP FULL
With the tune installed on the ECU, we did another run on the dyno and the car put down 360whp and 391wtq! This represents gains of 45whp and 58wtq with our VR Tuned ECU flash! Be sure to check out the full video below to see this FK8 in action and the tuning process! After getting a good baseline number, we pulled the ECU out to flash it with our VR Tuned file on the tuning bench. Surprisingly, the bolt-ons added a decent amount of power without any tuning.
Once we got the Civic strapped to the dyno, it made 315whp and 333wtq as a baseline number, which is quite a bit more than FK8s we’ve tested in the past. With these bolt-ons, the FK8 should have lower charge air temperatures and more total airflow. This specific FK8 CTR that we tested has a full HKS exhaust, Mishimoto intercooler, and Mishimoto intake. We already knew our VR Tuned system adjusted well to aftermarket bolt-ons, however, we wanted to know just how well it could do with bolt-ons. All of our testing in the past was on stock or nearly stock FK8s, so when we recently had the change to test our tuning on an FK8 with bolt-on parts, we jumped on. Without any modifications, it’s pretty easy to get +50HP and +80LB-FT from the K20C through our VR Tuned ECU flash.
As we already know from extensive testing in the past, the FK8 Civic Type R has a massive amount of power potential.
