Modding A DC5.

[Vagabond]

Guys,

If you were to mod a DC5 for everyday driving, but still powerful enough for spirited driving, + fuel economic to a certain extent, how would you mod it?

Suggestions welcome.

 

[achor]

are u driving 1?

 

[J101]

if i were....if lar....

then i would leave it at factory spec. powerful + fuel economy.

 

[Vagabond]

Actually, yes, just recently obtained a DC5.

But unsure of what to do with it, as i'd probably be driving it for daily use.

 

[achor]

do u drive it often? like me, i drive my car to work n home. occasionally hentam on weekends n long distance driving to jb.

so can hentam mod like hell. but when traffic jam while on the way to work, u suffer alone in the car la.

since u drive an integra, why don't u join the integra headcount tread?

join us for tt. u live in kl rite?

K20A can play a lot of mod. it's up to u, ur budget and how u wanna play it.

Tt reli depends on your budget bro.Reli hard to say...

I use my Teg for daily driving too and im in sales. Mild mods that doesn't affect reliability that much should be ok for daily use.

Air intake mods, Exhaust mods, computer box, handling mods. All these should be fine.

Plenty of mods you can do on the DC5. You will to mod the car to the intended usage of the DC5 and the budget you have. You CANNOT have the best of everything. No way to me though.

Check out:-

Skunk2 Racing - Aftermarket performance parts for the sport compact enthusiast.

Plenty of parts here for DC5 and Honda

Need more info on these products, just PM me.

hahah... true words chris.

actually everything depends on ur

1. ur budget
2. your plan
i. how far r u willing to go?
ii. what r u looking for? torque? handling? power?
iii. what parts (from which manufacturer) u want to go with? every manufacturer has thier own goal. that's why there's variation in parts.
for example, the muffler. got racing N1 type and oval type.
iv. plan. this is the most important part. what do u wish to achieve in the end? don't change ur plans too often. or u'll never be satisfied with what u have.

If I have a DC5...
1. I will do the basic mod like intake filter, exhaust, header, plug...
2. Toda cam + sprocket.
3. Hondata ECU.

With Hondata ECU ur car sure can have fuel saving and powerful. I have a very good ECU tuner here. 240whp should be not a problem, yet it's very suitable for street use!!!

If u are looking for DC5 parts or tuner, call me. 0178708550.

simon, to whom do u send to tune hondata ecu?

hondata, that's the magic ingredient.

Guys,

I guess I'm a bit concerned on the practical usage of the car.
Meaning= economic. Meaning = lowering fuel cost while maintaining at least the power of a stock car.

I was thinking of trying an Apexi V-AFC 2 or Apexi AFC Neo, for semi-efficient amatuer tuning.

Though the AFC NEO is newer than V-AFC 2, BUT i heard that the AFC NEO is not compatible with I-Vtec, is that true?

Can anyone help me verify? Which do I choose? V-AFC 2 or AFC Neo?

Hi Vagabond,

I was told that for the DC5 the exhaust is one of the important ones to change and that would also mean an open pod filter

As for VAFC .... I would suggest that you want to play piggy back go for e-manage...it has the ignition controller which you will also need....unless u want looks and nice display then VAFC Neo would be nice....

Bro if u seriously want the car to be economical you cant go wrong with going stock....but i'm sure you want to play your car at least a little so there's no choice but to sacrifice a lil on FC.... modding exhaust and air filter will not effect it by too much....

Come join us at the teg group....

 

[Vagabond]

Man,

I'd love to join all of you integra heads, but problem is, I'm up north.

Sigh. Not much action going around here. Know any integra owners up north? Penang island?

For that matter, any shop installing Radiostar in Penang?

 

[AlmostEvo]

There is a few Teg owners on the island. Perhaps u guys can meet up.

i can confirm with u that afc - neo is not compatible with k20a. u need a review to re-confirm it?
