I'm kindof stuck on what to do..I know i'm in need of a bigger tb..the stock itr one is cracked alittle bit..but other then that i dont know....

i got major bolt ons and my head is about fully worked about all its goin to get...


in a quest to figure out if i should go ITBS or a intec type-r manifold situation...anyone's thoughts??

 

Describe what you have motor, cams, header, exhaust, intake, etc.

 

itbs are gonna be a lot of money.....plus even more cuz they require a lot of tuning.

I know this is the NA forum, but tires are crucial to what ever you plan to accomplish with the car. Whether drag, autox, rr, etc an extra set of wheels and tires with only one performance purpose will always perform better than a double duty set

 

rolling on falken ziex's right now 205/60/16's...

i'ma probbaly switch to a 210 or stick with a 205 and go to a 40 side..

 

I also see itbs go for 900-1000 bucks being i'm going to have more then 1100 left over this is just a guess..

 

Itr tranny or build a b16 tranny. Sell your stock block and build a b20. Get a better intake manifold, Tb and a b16 tranny or intake mani,tb and retune. Many things you can do, really all depends on you, your goals, how long you want your down time to be.

 

Well.. A Tranny WAS A opition..a b16 or a ctr/itr tranny was a goal of mine.. I'm kindof seeing how far i can push this stock c5 block..more then likely i will end up boring it out to a 2.0 or something of that nature come summer time..

Better intake manifold how??
What TB Do YOU suggest..

And i'm sure i'm right around 200-210whp..something of that nature i've been running 13.9's and 13.8's just trying to get lower times i'm not shooting for anything unrealistic but..just tryin to get some insight..

is this going to be a drag car? or daily?

drag&gt;&gt;&gt;i would recommend the victor x. might be a little too much for that setup but they have nice gains at 7k+ rpms. that way if you end up liking the new mani, youll be saving a lot of $$.

tb.....i would go with 70mm. find out what the size your mani can accomodate for. i know the skunk2 pro series mani can accept up to 74mm i think. so it might be close to the same.

itbs will give a nice little throttle response though

 

Didnt see anything on headwork. Get a nice street port and 3angle valve job.

 

its a semi daily, i have a RSX-S i use for a daily driver..this is my weekend car really

the baller status sirens just went off can i walk around in your shoes for like a week?

if thats the case (weekend car) slap the itbs on it. 1. itll be a status symbol 2. forget all the crap i said earlier about victor x and saving money 3. itll be fast, sound good, and be fast........as hell.

ITBs FTW

 

You could always put a nitrous kit on it and run your ITB buddies down from behind.

 

already ran nitrous on the car..did a 50/65/75/ and it even saw 90 shot or like a 93 shot..i did direct port..i have pics of my setup i had before..but nitrous got old i'm a all motor guru and whats what i like..more then likely goin to go itbs..

i'm not a baller just work really hard, i have 3 jobs and i just graduated medical school for nursing..so..i'm making

Your not an all motor guru if your asking what to spend 1100 dollars on. Nothing will give you a gain for the price of nitrous haha.

I dont like nitrous..dumb ***..are u that retarded??

Honda-TECH i ASKED a question and wanted to see what my money would be best spent on..i love all motor and always have..hell i'm goin on almost 4 years, a stock type-r block reving to 9k+ on 5 different sets of cams, 4 sets of headers, 3 exhaust, 6 clutches, and a hell of alot of different head work..get off my nuts.

Not to mess up your thread but to break down your loses here you go.

1 RMF or SMSP header $1100
1 set of SKS2 cams $550
1 thermal catback exhaust 2.5 mandrel bent $600
1 Act extreme Clutch setup with 6 puck disk $425
1 head job by port flow with springs retainers $1200

You call yourself a GURU changing all that stuff out. You could of had a b20/VTEC with 250+ WHP already my friend. ITBS and retune will be your best bet from some of the people that have pasted your mild stepping stone GURU

Put it in the ******* bank.

 

Why put it in the bank..i have ..2 i have two with money in them now..i dont want to put this in the bank..its a birthday present to myself..

 

In my honest opinion, the best bang for your buck for you at this point would be a 4.9 Final Drive or a 3,4 & 5th gear set from MF Factory. Better than itb's/header or IM for you. They make a DRAMATIC difference in acceleration....just my .2 cents.

 

i was thinking about goin with a different tranny all together..possible b16 or ctr/itr swapped tranny..but i mean like i said..i'll have more money then this..i just rolled up on another 400 bucks cash tonight so...ya.

 

Only 3 things left.....

1. Type-r Tranny
2. Port your skunk mani
3. Tune on a dyno after mani install.

BTW, can we see a dyno of this setup you have here?

 

OR you should just get one of these. Ask DonF about these, he has them in stock for cheap. I hear this is the edge he has kept a secret for a while.....

I would build a trans also...gearing is more fun than power, trust me....both at the same time is just ridiculous
