Civic with K&N Typhoon Kit. EDIT : Now TURBO-Charged

m4ugr8 · 11th February 2009, 20:48

Thanks Guys.

@Manveet: Its not that Me and Abhimanyu are trying to make things up here, What would we get by doing that?? These some facts which me and Abhimanyu have observed personally after driving the car from each stage. Anyways lets not get into an argument here.

I got a Decent 9.4 KM/L Average today, after fair bit of red-lining, infact the first 50 Kms were driven with red lining in each gear. Will carry out a good eco test and post

Hi Manan,

Am glad I could help you make the right decision by going in for the remap and can see that you are enjoying your car. As far as any questions pertaining to the remap go kindly ask/approach Zakie directly who is also a member on the forum.

Well I got 1 part of the "T",Took a test drive and what i felt was that the car has significant changes,The low end has gotten way better.The car Revv's all the way till 8000 rpm and then the limiter comes in.Its very liner through out,Responsive as well.Impressive.

Could not do an extensive test.Will try it out when ever possible

Nice looking car. Great job on the remap, waiting to see how they are on the cars here.

A friend of mine owns the first Civic in India to be fitted with a Typhoon kit, and I was surprised at the difference in low-end response between the stock car and one with the kit. Must be even better with the remap. You should take it against a stock RS to see what it does.

manveet · 11th February 2009, 23:33

Hey Manan, I'm really happy for what the Remap has done to your car and would LOVE to get one done on my K24 too. Really appreciate it.

But c'mon, WE ALL (including 'Manyu) know that unless one changes the gear ratios, the top speed on each gear can't increase, he said it himself. I just told spoke in his defense (in response to diablo), never even implied that you were making up anything. It's all cool yaar, where's the argument? Peace bro, you're misunderstanding.

p.s.
Can I please have a test drive too?

Edit: If all goes well, I'm hoping you'll help me Mugen my ride, why would I fool around with you, eh?

Wow!You really have a lot of time these days..dont you???
Yes theoretically what i posted a year back is supposed to hold true but even i was surprised to actually observe that there was a difference.
Earlier when the revlimit used to cut in,the speedo showed 95kmph but now it shows 117kmph.I was surprised more so with the filter install,as the speedo showed 102kmph.Dont ask me how but it happened.
Im sure you would know best about this since you were the first one to get a cold air intake

Makes sense, must have been quite a cool thing to have witnessed. I really want a test-drive now.

I'm being nice to you, and you're hitting below the belt. I'm hurt.

m4ugr8 · 12th February 2009, 00:33

@v1p3r: Thank You, Yup the Typhoon Kit did make some very noticeable changes, The Remap takes that even further, I am really in love with my car and way it drives.

@Manveet: No Issues with you brother, Just trying to state a point here, You are welcome to come and have a feel of the car. I would love to have a Senior Mugen Brother in Delhi

, I Love Mugen

@noidaboy: Glad you liked it, When are you getting your VTEC Re-mapped, Its time we boys move back from where we started, PERFORMANCE. Abhimanyu will agree right??

Not really cool but baffling

NICE.....where?when?how?

You really need to test drive it.You will be pleasantly surprised and make sure you drive a stock civic before you drive manan's civic.

Manan: Will call you tomorrow, if you're coming to Gyro, I want a TD!

P.S. Wanna do a comparo run with my car?? She'll be run in over the weekend!

No thanks, I dont race with 1.1L Cars

abhinav.gupta88 · 12th February 2009, 02:21

how much does the remap cost manan?

crazydiablo · 12th February 2009, 08:35

I am still confused, but I would say forget it and enjoy your car. Love a modded car so no questions how it moves. Hey but you gotta tell us what you have in store for the beauty.

ashthedivx · 12th February 2009, 11:40

Congrats Manan !! Any idea if zakie has a re-map for automatic civic as well ?? It should benefit a automatic civic as well.
