just been told by angel tunning in scotland that the type r cant be re=mapped how much would it be to get the band raised waynne?imho i don't think it is worth doing unless you have any other mods to be taken into account.
That said it is possible to raise the vtec band by getting it to kick in lower down the rev range and this can be good for a few extra ponies.
What have you been quoted (money/power gains)?
hi prince ive got a straight thru stainless steel exhaust de-catted apart from that the cars standard im upgradeing the brakes next but i need more power the type r is not fast enough for me now!! I would really like a evo 10 rs but cant afford one just now. Gutted!!it's not worth it mate. For the money you will spend you'll get a very small power increase.
What other mods have you done?
hi bud dont know what to do to it everywhere i turn i come up against a brick wall!! Any ideas?as said, not a massive bang for your buck. Thing is most of the honda type-r engines are that good already they're hard to tune and improve on without a hefty wallet.

thanks bud will doindeed. Retaining the high compression and running a turbo on low boost on the standard internals is the way forwards for you imo. Will most likely need fuelling upgrades and definately standalone seeing as the type-r ecu apparantly can't be re-mapped. Several have been boosted before so do a google search or something and you should find plenty of info, maybe even whole kits.
cheers buddie i will search about and see what i come up withforced induction is the way forwards.
