i dont see many people with edelbrock parts on any hondas... none in my neck of the woods anyway... edelbrock is more devoted to v8's

edelbrock has a sweet intake manifold and a turbo kit for the sohc. Very high quality stuff, but yeah mostly for v8's, but overall nice parts.

you would have to modify the exhaust anyway for the h22 nomatter what exhaust you have so go ahead and get an exhaust for it. and as for the intake just get a cheap one off of ebay, you will have to modify one to fit the h22 in your engine bay.

what about the EX engine for now, i was thinkin intake, throttle body, intake mainfold, cams, headers, and full exhaust, and that would probally be it for that engine, until i swap in the far future

I would do ebay intake, gsr TB either a bullfrog cam or a zex cam, you can get a header but imo its not worth the money. The ex stock exhaust manifold is a pretty good design and then a twin loop mugen exhaust with custom mandrel bent b section piping.

save your money for that sweet swap!!,, by tomorrow the K swaps are affordable and you can have a K series in you EK. FYI intake manifold or the throttle body wont make that car any faster. Take it from someone that spent a lot on non-sense; get a nice motor, and suspension and also tuning the motor, then be happy.

Agreed, as if it's not enough to be new and really not understand the website, the guy also gets made to feel like an *******, that's not right.

I'm not perfect I've talked trash to people as well but it was wrong then and it's wrong now.
