mk8 Accord 2.2 Dtec
Hi everyone,

I'm Rob, I live in Newbury and work at Xtrac who make Motorsport gearboxes etc.

I've owned my Mk8 GT ES 2.2 I-Dtec for a couple of years and use it as my daily doing a mixture of mainly town and some long distance driving.

The car is on 160K miles and I found out last week it has had a remap and EGR + DPF delete! I'd like to modify it now I've got rid of my project car, lower it, 18" wheels, get twin exhaust (type s type) and maybe some cosmetic stuff too.
I would like to push the modifications on the engine, it looks like not many people have experimented with what you can do and what can be gained other than remaps etc, the engine is quite high mileage but runs like new, always serviced between 6-8k miles so i have confidence it will be okay being pushed a bit more!

I look forward to posting more and speaking to you all, absolutely love the car and want to keep it for a few years so thought I'd join the forum now I'm investing more time into it!

Regards
Rob
