2017-2021 Honda Civic Type-R FK8 & 2023+ Honda Civic Type-R FL5 Plug 'n Play Flex Fuel Kit by PRL Motorsports
Due to rising gas prices and the push for alternative fuel sources, ethanol, derived primarily from corn, has become a common, cost-effective fuel choice. Ethanol has now found its way into most modern gas stations and the community now understands its list of benefits in comparison to gasoline, such as the fact ethanol burns cleaner, cooler and is more resistant to detonation. Because of these characteristics, ethanol is a cheap alternative to expensive race fuels like race gas and/or methanol, especially with high(er) compression factory turbocharged vehicles.
E85 = 85% Ethanol and 15% Gasoline whereas E30 = 30% Ethanol and 70% Gasoline and so-on.
What is Flex Fuel?
In a nutshell, “flex-fuel” allows an internal combustion engine to flexibly utilize one or more different fuels (usually gasoline blended with either ethanol or methanol fuel), and both fuels are stored in the same common fuel tank. Flex-Fuel systems utilize an ethanol content analyzer to determine the amount of ethanol in a fuel system and a converter to send this reading to the vehicle’s ECU to instantaneously adjust for varying fuel mixtures.
Our Plug ‘n Play Flex-Fuel Kit utilizes factory plugs/outputs under the hood for power and communication to the ECU, meaning no need for additional wiring, cutting, splicing or running wires through the firewall into the cabin! This kit supplies everything needed for a quick and easy installation. Please note that our kit does NOT utilize an ethanol content gauge, as we feel that this is unnecessary. Hondata offers Bluetooth capabilities which can be used to display ethanol content if desired. All components are ethanol compliant!

Wow!
This upgrade has been a night and day upgrade. Easy to install.
Only the best
This is one of the quickest pathways to HP increases in the FK8. Of course you'll have to have a tuning solution to enable such as HONDATA flashpro. Also, if you are using a Boomba CCV catch can you will need to find an alternate way to mount as you lose the stock fuel rail bracket.
The only thing I would change would be the length of the wires. If the radiator wire was 10 inches shorter and the O2 sensor wires were 2 inches longer it would be perfect. Still 5 stars though
THis is great if you have E85 stations around you and you also need a better fuel pump/system.
Is a very easy straight forward installation,follow PRL pic instructions and you will be fine,I will say that you gain some 20hp
(HONDATA base map)
on E20 which is the best for stock setup.YOU can add 2 gallons of e85 on empty and top it off with 93.
I honestly think is worth the money for sure.
