OBX B16 Ramhorn in crx? Will It Fit?
I was wondering if the obx b16 ramhorn manifold will fit in a crx without cutting anything. My buddy has one on his gsr integra for about a year with no problems with cracking or anything. If it wont fit What is a good Ramhorn b16 manifold for a crx that wont break the bank(Under 450). Thanks

No big name Ramhorns for that pricerange. A nice log manifold is better than an OBX Ramhorn. They are too unpredictable

Buy a neukin EF manifold. Made for your setup and works well. Been using mine for over a year now with no problems. Save a little and do it right.

You mean to tell me that Nuekin welded your wastegate elbow like that or did you do that? Also, if you did that then how can that be an EF manifold if it had to be modified?

IMO it will need to be modified. I have seen an OBX one in an EF but the radiator was sitting all fucked up. If you want a good ramhorn that has zero fitment issues your going to need to spend the money. AFI can make one as well as Full-Race but niether are cheap. You can contact RLDFab, AFI, Nuekin, etc and tell them you want a ramhorn for your EF. Also note that you don't want any fitment issues whatsover. You will need to get a half radiator thats out of the question. Dude your not going to get your cake and ice cream with this one. Your going to have to spend the money on the better one your first time around. Look at it this way. It has a lifetime warranty with most manufactors so it will have paid for itself in the first 2 years because your going to need to buy 3 OBX's over the time.

Check out this thread. There are several different setups with ramhorns. PM the user and ask them what brand it is if it isn't stated in the description.

I know it will fit in the garbage can after it cracks so bad the turbo literally falls off the car. I speak from experience, stay away from China made crap. Buy something nice the first time and you wont have to it AGAIN!

in response that was how I got the kit, exactly like in the picture. That ramhorn is made for EF's.

I don't think the wastegate is what makes it a ef manifold, its how tall the manifold is. It needs to clear the hood. I knew somebody who couldn't get their hood to close with a ramhorn because they are made differently for ef's than they are for integra/civic

no... the neukin manfold moves the wg off to the side like that and also doesnt sit as high but i am guessing that the dumptube was home made
i just put a neukin mani on my car today and i couldnt be happier with quality and fitment
