Hi, my name is Krystal and I just bought a milano red civic fn2 type R in the last 3 months. It will be used as a daily but also as my project car, my motorkhana car and eventually my track car.
28685

I bought the car completely stock with one owner and serviced regularly by Honda.
So far I have installed a new exhaust (Invidia), new intake (Injen), coilovers (buddy club) and it has been fully tuned by Vit Tune.
I have just purchased new Tegiwa headers today and my new wheels are currently at the powder coaters, so there will be new pics to come.
28686

In the next month or so, I will be installing the new headers. Any tips or suggestions will be appreciated because I have researched it and apparently install is a nightmare!! Thanks in advance :)

Welcome!

How much power is it making?

I've heard some people run the PLM header and they seem to be pretty good for the price, from what I've heard.

Hi Krystal, welcome to OzHonda. What'd you have before the FN2?

What sort of power did you make when tuning and what ecu are you running?
Was there a huge improvement with the butt-dyno?

Pro-tip for headers is have small hands.

Enjoy your stay.

I don't think that there's plm headers. Best off getting tegiwa header as they are toda replicas

Ah I see now.

I have seen PLMs on DC5s and just assumed they fit on FN2's aswell.

Thanks :)
I made 150kw at the wheels after I had it tuned. Hopefully 160kw after the headers are installed and it has a retune.

I got Tegiwa headers. These came up at the right price lol

I started with a 94 civic gli, moved to a 09 Mitsubishi Lancer and now we are here with the fn2 lol However I have spent alot of time and effort in my partner's Evo8.

It made 150kw at the wheels and we used the Hondata flashpro. Hoping to get 160kw with the new headers and a retune.
There is an amazing difference! Alot more between 4k to 7k.
