The easiest possible styling upgrade in the engine bay. Sticks right over the stock fusebox cover and stays in place. Only one gripe: it's advertised as a dry carbon but it's much glossier than the factory bits.
This dipstick doesn't just add style to the engine bay. It's also an incredibly readable replacement for the Honda orange blob dipstick. The anodizing is gorgeous and the fit is nice and tight. No complaints, aside from burning my fingers if I touch it before the engine cools. Ouch.
I only put on the rear 2020+ garnish and it looks great. OEM, can't go wrong.
Didn’t like that it’s just a dropshipped revesol steering wheel I could have got from eBay for much cheaper. But other than that it’s good fitment and feel
Noticeably stiffens the dampers. Recommended for track hounds.
I got the 18x10.5 for autocross on my FL5, liked them so much I got a second set to daily.
Such a good mod on the si makes such a nice sound
The Wunderladen Clutch Damper Delete is easily a top 3 - 4 quality of life, driving enjoyment mod, along with rigid collars, full shifter replacement, RMM.
It is a night and day game changee if you're used to a more direct, analog clutch feel.
I did notice that it moved my clutch bite point to the very end of my pedal travel, where my foot's almost off the clutch.
These pedals have practically zero feel and with the damper delete personally id say even less, however I can still get the car rolling only on clutch power 0 gas.
Significantly easier to get in and out of gear on and off the clutch with 0 delay/lurch or rev hang.
Easy reco, incredible bang for the buck.
DO NOT sleep on these.
This is a must-have part, and the results speak for themselves. Im loving it! picture is oem vs PT upgrade
Amazing intake that lets the engine breath and gives you an addictive turbo/induction sound upgrade! Loving it!
AMAZING change in driving feel! Definitely worth the money
Seriously amazing ride quality! If youre looking to reduce tire noise in the cabin and add a serious amount of grip, these are the choice!
Looks great but it’s only for the standard bore and not the (race) big bore. The team at Unity is working on helping to get a big bore from PRL which is awesome
I ordered a cooling plate for my FK8 but received the FL5 version instead. I took the unopened box straight to a workshop and paid for the labour, only to find out that the part I received wasn’t what I ordered. This has been a complete waste of both time and money.
I've always been on the fence with bigger turbos, the final horsepower number doesn't tell the full story in most of these big power cars that you see online. When I heard that this turbo gives you a sizeable increase in top end power (letting you actually rev the car out past stock rpm and continue to make power after the stock unit runs out of juice) WITHOUT sacrificing much in terms of response, I knew it would be a perfect fit for my track focused build.
The unit was well packed and 27WON writes some of the best if not the best instruction manuals for installing and servicing all their products.
Applicable mods:
PRL intake
PRL intercooler
Infinity designs turbo inlet
27WON Kuro Turbo
27WON catted downpipe
PRL Front Pipe
Greddy Exhaust
Stock Fuel System
Pump Gas

*Thoughts after 15 Track days and 20K Kms
Daily driving the extra lag is barely noticeable, only when I drove my wife's stock turbo FK8 did I notice that there was any difference at all actually and the amount of USABLE power after 5500 rpm is massive.
On track the difference opens up even more, the car is actually fun to rev out and has noticeable usable power at redline, the cars chassis is more than capable of putting it down as well and I never thought that there was “too much” power
The Kuro has always been the response king, what it lacks in size it more than makes up for in response, honestly there's not much to say, the dyno graphs speak for themselves, grab the turbo that best fits your goals and needs.
Green Is a stock turbo FL5
Blue is my Kuro equipped FL5
Red is a larger turbo FL5
(The stock fuel system was used and the car found the limits of the stock setup, there is a bit more juice in the turbo, it's completely usable but an upgrade to the HPFP would be ideal to get the most of the turbo and for longevity of the related components.)
Install was very good, 27 WON includes very easy to read and follow instructions making install pretty easy
Overall first impressions - calipers and pads are of very good quality, fit and finish was perfect especially considering the price
Included are the calipers and all associated install brackets and hardware, stainless lines and larger pads.
The caliper is not physically larger in terms of clearance for rims, they will work with oem wheels as well as 18 inch wheels (provided they also clear the stock caliper), meaning no need for spacers or an entire new wheel setup to run them, reuse stock sized rotors as well.
My previous stock calipers have been put through a proper beating, dozens of track days and plenty of heat have essentially cooked all the seals and dust boots requiring rebuilds multiple times a year (as well as being a very ugly shade of brown). I was running sr11 pads, Paragon rotors and castrol srf Brake fluid and It was time for an upgrade.
I have had the 27WON Calipers on roughly 10k kms including 5 track days on BOTH the "street" and "race" pads. As I used the caliper upgrade I was able to reuse my Paragon rotors which saves on cost as well.
First initial impressions, brakes felt great, on the street pads they feel like an upgrade over the stock equipped brembos and have a much better feel due to the stainless lines. The street pads had minimal dust and were quiet, perfect for spirited driving with the occasional track day. The race pads were definitely more purpose built, more dust, more noise and of course better braking performance and held more heat, I personally didn't experience brake fade before the car had to be taken off the track to let the oil and coolant cool off. If these aren't enough, separate pads can be ordered from various manufacturers as it's a common pad shape.
Maintenance on them is also vastly improved, changing pads is a breeze since they no longer require pins to be hammered out, simply unscrew the pad retaining bolts and you’re set to swap pads. Perhaps the biggest upgrade to maintenance is the lack of Rubber dust seals for the pistons, they won't get burned and swollen after heavy use, and they no longer have to be changed out.
All that being said I would definitely recommend these if your use case is similar to mine, I never thought the FL5 NEEDED more brakes of course it's an added bonus to have the extra heat capacity and pad area which should lead to longer lasting pads and more time before they start to fade, as someone that swaps out pads often as well as needs to rebuild often the fact that these calipers made that a non issue is enough of reason to upgrade for myself. As an added bonus, they look pretty sweet.
Feels good in the hand, doesn’t freeze/burn your hand when getting into car
Love the gorgeous weave and how it sits 1" taller than stock. It looks way more aggressive than the stock scoop. The plastic tabs the OEM hardware slots into weren't very easy to work with, and one slot didnt allow the bolt to fully slot in. Had to install that bolt at a bit of an angle. Hope it's not a problem long term.
It’s not the same quality like the one I had from the original purchase with the intake but it still does the job
Watch the various videos online. Installation alignment was a little tricky to fit under the factory hatch panel, but a little patience and a few zip ties did the trick. I cut out the OEM cable strap clip to make it fit without issue
