Does anyone know if there are any throttle bodies or intake manifolds out for the d17a2 (04 civic ex coupe)? I have seen something like a universal skunk2 throttle body? How exactly will that work and would there need to be any modifications? Also, i have seen an intake manifold by venom on hopupracing.com. It says for sohc civics. Would that fit like it was made for a d17a2 or would there have to be any modifications?

nobody makes a direct bolt on replacement TB or intake manifold

 

http://www.maxbore.com takes your oem TB from 55mm to 59mm. kms intake manifolds suck, but you can swap a d16 vtec manifold on. search 7thgencivic.com for some info on that.

 

thanks for the info guys. Is the d16 vtec manifold a direct replacement? would it be better than the kms manifold?

hahha exactly

 

Can someone give me a link to the forum about modding a d16 manifold to fit the d17a2. I tried to look for it but its just too many pages on 7thgencivics.com and i don't know where to start.

PM sent....

 

i was searching for the same thing a while back and i couldn't find anything. KMS intake manifold is only good if your running boost.

 

rewsnaeht sent me a pm. How do i read it?
sorry new to honda-tech.

Someone on 7thgencivic.com just got his running and has good reviews. He may have read my comment above about its looks. I still stand by that statemet. But if it works

Why don't you copy and paste the info here and give credit to the original poster. Makes it a bit easier for someone to find info instead of searching around on multiple sites

 

i have seen in a few forums 4 throttle bodies from a gsx-r used as an intake manifold. What would be the pros and cons of this setup and how much would it cost to do?

i didnt send him anything from another site, or this site for that matter.

 

I would still be interested in a write up on how to convert the manifold to fit

 

i would also definetly be interested in how to convert a b16 manifold to fit a d17. Do you think it would give you good power, or better going with kms?

 

For the price......I think your better off buying a cheap y8 manifold and jsut making that fit. The KMS is decently priced and you can prolly pick up a full y8 mani for around 50 bucks then just find someone that can weld the new flang and you;ll have to fool with the vaccum lines and what not. Your prolly not going to see a huge diff between the y8 and kms

 

im better off just going with the kms manifold than modifying a b16 to fit. Saves a lot of hassle.

 

If you got the money then do that

 

there was a vid posted here about someone using gsx throttle bodies as ITBs, its very interesting.

I was also researching about converting my intake manifold to a d16y8 intake manifold, im thinking of boosting and i dont think my plastic intake manifold is going to be too efficient.

theres a member on 7thgencivic that used a venom intake manifold and modified it to fit the d17a engine. Its a sweet piece and is currently up for sale.

 

If you have a link to the venom intake manifold, please post. That would be really interesting.

 

yeh post a link from 7thgen
