Actually used, but in good condition.
Part # RZ-0158

I took the actual chip out to inspect it for any visible damage like cracks in the solders, but didnt see any. My question is, are cracked solders visible to the eye?
Would I see the damage if it was a bad relay?

sometimes they are, sometimes they aren't (your talking about the main relay (ignition relay) right?


only one way to find out...

And that is...to install the new one?


Also, Z!ggy, what is an H22 red top? Why do they call it "red top?" Also, post some pix of your ride & the engine. It sounds nice..

and the piping sounds fast too.

well right now the front bumper cover is off due to the ram air intake intake install,(i've been lazy and put it back on, it's been like a month)... i also have a 0-60 pull i could put up, but i have some pics i'll throw up.... oh and it's pretty shitty because i rec orded it with my cell phone and it's pretty hard to do with pretty much hardly any traction through 1st and second gear...the red top h22a is H22A, its called the "red top" because of it's signature red valve cover, which is often copied that went in the "S" type preludes and the top of the line euro Prelude "R" 220hp/161tq from the factory

anyways, here's some pics

(its since been wrapped in heatwrap, that was just a cheap hx to keep it from melting for a cuople days until i could get the proper material to pu t around the piping

Nice looking Accord there Z!ggy

Your custom ram air intake looks like it is probably going to be as restrictive, if not more, than your stock tubing. Due to the ribs/pleats in the bends. I didn't see any pics of your "Red Top" H22A-S care to share. It would be cool to see one in a 6th Gen.

P.S. That is a real nice pic you have in your Parent Directory/Poop.....

lol, thats what you get for looking around in parent directorys :rofl:

the ram air intake just looks all pleated and resstrictive because i litereally just took a roll of duck tape and rapped the piping... i'll snap some pics of it how it looks now tommorow in the daylight.. its not restrictive at all... i noticed a big difference up top.... it pulls past 100 like it used to pull past 80....

man i dug all through my pics folder and couldnt find the pics of the H22A install we did in my friends garage...i'll ask him tommorow if he still has them... and i'll snap some pics tommorow of it all in and the intake tubing all heatwrapped, etc..


i did however fine one pic of it sitting his garage on Ihe ground when it first arrived...

If you can't find any pics that you took during the build why don't you just take a pic of it as it sits in the car now? Pop the hood, stand back and "click" it's that easy. I'm sure if you managed to do an engine swap you can handle that.

wow, that went off topic quick.

op, if you want more info the main relay, check in the FAQ in the Electrical section for links that refer to the main relay.
