yea totally broken and missing images everywhere.

 

I would love to talk to her.

 

woah.....there

 

Got myself a gift. Now to track down the other pair. Thanks robertpp!

 

Nice, i was gonna get those but then decided to just paint the calipers black instead.

 

OP, it'll look even better if you paint your calipers black first, then putting these on. Since parts of the caliper won't be covered, it looks silly to have a black caliper cover with some silver/grey showing from the edges IMO.

 

Those are a part you can buy from acura?

 

Yup. They're meant for RDX calipers, but can be fitted onto our TSX calipers with a little bit of work.

 

Yeah, I plan on painting the uncovered parts black with high heat paint.

 

I love when people speed up when I'm about to cut them off.

 

By love you mean hate?

 

I passed someone going like 85~90 today and then I threw a CEL again lmao fuuuuuuug. I looked like a dick haha

 

Same CEL that caused limp mode? That'd be hella awkward! You overtake, and then you need to stop on the side of the road because your car stopped working LOL

 

hey guys with the RV6......

I was throwing a code every 2 weeks and for me that not much mileage.
i removed the pipe saturday and the lock ring and defouler were flopping around.....silly loose.

check that defouler lock ring maybe every oil change or sooner.

mine was goodandtite when i installed it.
i also checked it once after I threw my first cel.

and the pipe might have 6-7k miles on it.

 

I only have ~400 km on the car with the pipe on; no CEL. I got the guy at the shop to tighten the defouler nut before install. With that being said though, it was already pretty tight when I received the pipe from optimus.

Thanks for the tip.

 

with exhaust pieces, its always a good idea to go over bolts a few miles in.

the constant heating and cooling cycles are enough to sometimes loosen bolts.

 

question.. so the rv6 pipe needs gaskets and optimus's pipe was used. so did you re use his old gaskets?

 

The gasket between the bottom of the PCD and the 2nd cat is a custom one from RV6, and shouldn't be reused. I bought a new from RV6. $8 for the copper gasket and $3 for shipping to 14174.

The gasket between the top of the PCD and the engine is OEM, and since my car is fairly new, I reused mine. RV6 supplies a new one for you when you buy the PCD new, but you might be able to get away with using the existing one in your car.

 

where did you find that?
RV6 Performance | I4-K24Z3
don't see it here.

 

i have a new oem upper gasket from honda to go with the pipe. i reused the old one.


and IMO the copper one from my wagon could be reused too. its still flat. only been on there maybe 6-7K miles. doesnt look out of shape or bent in any way.

 

I emailed him. It's not on the site.

Good luck!

 

Yes, Sheldon. That was sarcasm.

 

 

what defouler nut?

 

the defouler on the RV6 PCD is "locked" in place by a nut.

 

they say to leave it loose until you have the pipe in.
but for us we know it needs pointed up so may as well make it tight before you install.....will be easier.

 

oh, I just thought that was called O2 Bung...

 

bung is the opening itself right? the nut is literally that hex shaped nut used to tighten the thing

and thanks Rob, that picture is a million times more effective than mine lmao

 

 

LOL shush Justin

 

i understood what you and rob were saying butt then Joe comes out of left field.


he said bung.

 

well you guys are talking about defoulers..... that elbow aint defouling anything.

 

joe you call it what you want......


we are REPEATING what the vendor calls it.

put your engineers hat away/



and like justin is laughing about...... the BUNG is the threaded hole where you SCREW in the defouler/
then when it in proper position you tighten the lock ring or nut or whatever you want to call it/

 

I think my belt is shrinking. It's too tight on me now.
