Customer Reviews
The aFe Scorcher is a super easy way to add a very noticeable amount of power to your Type R. However, I have 2 gripes with this controller; the remote they give you to change the modes is made out of the cheapest plastic possible, it works fine but feels crappy. The other issue is I find the Scorcher has a very hard time in the 'Race' setting unless the car is fully warm. Even at low speeds the car will dump its boost at the incorrect time and make the car jitter and act weird (I needed to clear codes a few times). I know you should be at full temp before any spirited driving, but come on, we've all done it. This definitely gives you a bump in power with some irritating drawbacks you will need to work around. I'd give it 3.5 stars. I recommend it if you're looking for a bolt-on and cheaper option, but if you are looking for something more serious I would take a look at Hondata.
Easy to install and affordable with great HP.
