Hey, Anyone on here got feedback on FN2 with TDI North ECUtec update? TDI North FN2 ECUTek Looking to get it done to mine, tying in with the HKS induction kit I've fitted already. feedback anyone, or even better meet-up if near Hertford? Interested if you lose the Vtec kick with the change...

Thanks, great shout. I did europarts for Sachs stuff as well, though went tegiwa for top mounts as cheaper randomly. I'll be spending some time painting calipers soon now then!

Did you take it anywhere afterwards to get it aligned or anything? Just wondering if worth doing or hold out as new tyres need doing in 2-3months i recon. Any other refresh points you'd recommend? Brake and brake calipers are on list as calipers especially look rusty as anything.

Got back into Type R ownership with a Black FN2 a couple weeks back. Previously had EP3 30th Anniversary so great to get the VTEC magic again. After years of diesel company cars good to have the wail again. Looking at couple changes an updates to FN2: - HKS induction kit - Bulbs, seems prior...

Guys, just had my tegiwa kit fitted to my type r. At low revs there is not much difference....and then you hit the higher end and it goes crazy. Even better once into the vtec. If you haven't got one of these, I would recommend without doubt. Here's the reasons why. 1) I ordered mine at...
