Is it a H22 with a Euro R manifold or a Euro R engine in a Prelude or a Euro R car with a stock motor and you will have to explain a bit more to get help.

are you worried about the gas milage and think this will help? If so I can't see it solveing a bad gas milage problem.

if you want solutions I would say. airfilter, spark plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuelinjector cleaner, o2 sensor, make sure your throttle body, iacv, and egr are clean. tire pressure.

all these are solutions. no way of knowing what will help the most.

its not so bad. someone who had a euro R tranny once told me you got better gas mileage? So I was kinda wondering y im not getting better gas mileage which would prob be the valvetrain.
