i just bought myself....

- My Rear Camber Kit (about time, cuz i REALLY gotta align my car)

- Mugen Type Front Lip

- Honda Honeycomb Grill (thanks 2 red for telling me the site )

- Blacked Out Headlights (were decent price, plus was 2 lazy 2 dyi, plus didnt want to f*ck up the stock ones.)

- OBX Throttle Body Spacer

- AEM v2 Intake (n b4 i get flamed on y i spent my money on the intake, is 1. its my car, 2. i like the sound, 3. heres 2 pics of the dyno the aem site had for my engine model.)





plus im also going to redo my tail lights.

well tell me what you think

 

damn the pics came out tiny.... basicly says it gained a max of 12.2 hp, and 10.7 ft-lb gain in torque 4rm the v2 intake.

 

enjoy everything

 

12 hp.... really? that doesnt sound right

 

remember im the d17a1 model, im a dx, non vtec, so since my engine is crapier it actually gets more out of doing sumthin to it, while the ex vtec only gets like 5.1 hp

 

you will be lucky to see 5whp, dyno's from company's are always done at PERFECT conditions vs a base run at TERRIBLE conditions. They are very biased.

on a better note, everything sounds good, and at least ur intake will give u a good sound.

 

yea thats true well w.e im not expecting for my heavy 4dr to go out n smoke everyone with adding on an intake, so w.e. n yea everythin else sounds good, cant wait till they get here. i wasnt to happy of seeing all that money go away but as soon as i c everythin in da car, i know ima b happy.

 

arent 4 doors are like 30 pounds heavier than coupes???

 

yeah theres a 40lb difference... not much

 

4 real? i would think it was a lot difference in wieght n i was eattin **** anyways when i said extremely heavy 4dr lol

 

sooo i heard that throttle body spacers you dont really gain much hp or tq from.
i heard you get more power from an intake mani. spacer?

anybody know a difference?

You wouldn't see an increase with either. The idea behind a throttle body spacer is to give fuel from a carburated vehicle more time to atomize. But, with a fuel injected vehicle, you don't need to space the throttle body, because it won't do anything.

And, the only intake manifold spacer that could possibly help, would be one with a coolant line attached to lower intake temperatures, but that would require a seperate coolant setup, because engine coolant usually runs at the same temp as your engine, which isn't cold at all. So, this would be of no use as well.
