Hey, good job. I see that I would put down about the same numbers down as your before P2R/Neo dyno. Looks like you got a good twelve horsies out of those other mods. How much did they run you and how much different are they than the Outlaw plenum/TB spacers I have?

edit: Those torque gains are what our Hondas need.

I only got to floor it once for a couple of seconds due to traffic and it definitely took off. VSA was going crazy and I punched it from 30 mph.

For those who want to know the gains of the plenums before the dyno tune, were approx an 8hp increase, and 13ftlb increase.

thanks for clarifying what the gains were without the neo and tuning, great to know.

What was your A/F before tuning?

etc

thanks

Yeah, I got so excited I forgot to mention it in the beginning.

I forgot what the a/f ratio was before tuning unfortunately .

I had a question for you. It seemed from the vids that you posted that the car was dyno'd in 2nd...You know it is supposed to be third right?

Car was dynoed in 3rd. It automatically switches from 1st to second really quickly on the dyno actually. Then I put it into 3rd.

Damn I wish you would have tuned the car then put them on, dynoed and then once again tuned the car, seems like a good part of that is just from tuning, I mean no doubt the chambers helped but it would have been nice to see how your car went from being optimized to chambered abd once again optimized for the chambers so the difference is not hinged so much on the NEO.

Otherwise nice power for a AT

I did not mess with his A/F settings in the NEO. If you look at his air maps, its all at 0 except for his cruising. I adjusted the NEO to give him better gas mileage, but first pull after installing plenums was between 8-10 hp. I then lowered the vtec and see the 12 hp gain over the full pull. But we did not mess with the full throttle Air Fuel ratio. But you guys also got to remember, the more bolts on's you have on your car. The more you will be required to do a tune when installing these plenums.
In this case, we seen a gain without even doing a tune. So we were pretty happy. I think if this car did not have a stock exhaust system, we could pull out more hp, and then be required to have to adjust the A/F ratio some.

if you would have put it in SS and manually upshifted to 3rd it would stay

Very nice to see that an Auto CL-S can put down impressive numbers with basic bolt-ons and a good tune. Do you plan on running it in the 1/4 to see what it can do?

Don't think the plenums and AFC quality as basic bolt-ons but regardless those numbers are very impressive without even touching the exhaust besides headers.

Oh btw did you have the P2R TB Spacer on there and the thermo gaskets?

What air maps? Did he post some already? So you basically tuned the low throttle setting but not the high, I see. So did you guys go into the NEO's advance tuning mode for the addtional air correction points.

Maybe in the future. Right now I have all season performance tires (long story, involves two kids in my neighborhood who love nails and sticking them into everyones tires) and I can't even get traction when I punch it at 30mph.

I see it, but he didnt say what he lowered it too? I want to lower mine also if there is some sort of gain, but did he need to tune the NEO to compensate for the lower VTEC engagement? more info is greatly appreciated.

He added more info in the plenums thread. I was outside of the car, behind the guy on the dyno's computer when Sean was messing with the Neo, so I didn't see directly what he did.

To further show Sean's point here are settings straight from my Apexi Neo (sorry for any confusion I may have caused!)

I still haven't seen anything in this or the P2R thread regarding lowering of VTEC engagement and further tuning. If the VTEC engagement point was lowered to let's say 4400, the cam changover does occur BUT the ECU doesn't fully recognize the changeover until the normal 4800. Therefore it doesn't start to lean out the engine to assist with increased output like it's supposed to in VTEC. So, without changing the VTEC unmatch, in this example you would be losing potential gains between 4400-4800.

Nice color display on the Neo.

Your going to have to ask P2R about this.

Yeah the display is pretty nice, although I usually leave it tucked away, It can get kind of distracting .

2x, I set my vtec engagement to 4100 like you did TCM but I can feel the dip in power between 4100-4800, i'd like to hear more about this from sean.

Yeah you need to tune the VTEC unmatch to compensate for the gap.

There are directions for changing the unmatch in the instruction booklet, though there is a bit of math involved...as for the dyno, I suppose that would be the best way to ensure you did it right.
