“Oiwa Garage Reviews: Top 5 Performance Mods for the Acty Mini Truck”

The Honda Acty isn’t built for speed—but with the right performance mods, you can seriously upgrade how it handles, hauls, and climbs. At Oiwa Garage, we’ve spent years testing and refining modifications that don’t just look cool—they make a real difference in how your mini truck performs on the street, trail, or work site.

Here are our Top 5 Performance Mods for the Honda Acty, backed by real-world testing, customer feedback, and our in-house builds.


???? 1. High-Flow Intake & Re-Jetted Carb (or EFI Tune)

Best for: Smoother throttle response & improved low-end torque

The stock air intake on the Acty is restrictive and prone to clogging with dust. Our high-flow intake system, paired with a properly re-jetted carburetor (for carb models) or a light ECU tune (for EFI models), offers:

  • More responsive acceleration

  • Better airflow at higher RPMs

  • Slight gains in torque and fuel economy

???? Bonus: Add a washable dry filter for easy maintenance on dusty trails.


⚙️ 2. Upgraded Clutch Kit

Best for: Towing, trail use, and lifted trucks

Once you start hauling gear, running larger tires, or off-roading, the factory clutch wears fast. We install heavy-duty clutch kits with:

  • Higher clamping force

  • Improved heat resistance

  • Better engagement at low speed

Ideal for 4WD Actys or builds with bigger rubber and steeper terrain in mind.


???? 3. All-Terrain Tire & Wheel Package

Best for: Grip, ground clearance, and stability

Swapping to 23” all-terrain tires and lightweight 12"–13” steel wheels changes everything:

  • More traction in mud, gravel, snow

  • Slight boost in ride height

  • More confident cornering and stability on rough roads

We test tire combos from Maxxis, Falken, and Kenda—and match them to your lift and usage.


????️ 4. 2” Lift Kit with Tuned Shocks

Best for: Off-road clearance and ride control

The Oiwa Garage 2" lift kit isn’t just about looks—it’s a performance upgrade. We pair it with:

  • Longer, progressive-rate rear shocks

  • Alignment-correcting front spacers

  • Reinforced hardware for trail abuse

This setup keeps your truck balanced and predictable, whether it’s loaded down with gear or bouncing over dirt roads.


???? 5. Lightweight Exhaust System

Best for: Efficiency, sound, and small performance gains

We offer a stainless steel cat-back system designed specifically for the Acty’s tight frame:

  • Frees up airflow

  • Adds a deep, clean tone (not obnoxious)

  • Slight horsepower boost above 4,000 RPM

  • Rust-proof for long-term reliability

Perfect for street-trail hybrid builds and daily drivers alike.


???? Bonus Mods Worth Mentioning:

  • Transmission cooler upgrade for hard trail use

  • Electronic ignition module for smoother cold starts

  • Rear axle spacers for stability on lifted setups

  • Brake upgrade kit (slotted rotors + performance pads)
