Currently my set up is making 180 whp.

Do you guys think i could make a decent amount of more power if i got a skunk2 manifold, obd 1 ecu + hondata, and then had it retuned?

p&p the head dood. get the rest of that stuff and u'll be over 200 with tuning easily

 

Could i make it safely into the 190s without P&Ping my head?

 

Hondata would be a great addition.

Personally I don't like the S2 IM for the B18C1 head because the port angles do not match up.

With a Hondata GS-R ECU you could tune the IAB switchover. That probably won't help your peak numbers, but with the fat primary lobes of the Toda Bs you should see a nice midrange gain by setting the IAB switch a bit lower.

 

My brother has the Skunk2 IM on his 99 Gsr and it made a big difference, definately worth the money. I hear Kenji sells chipped P28's which also make pretty good horsepower. Get the Skunk2 IM, AEM CAI for a Type R and Kenji's P28 and you will definately be making some power you can feel.

 

Just installed sk2 manifold on my car and it was a world of difference, you will see a huge difference w/ cams, manifold, and a chipped single stage runner ecu...

I have a similar set up, w/CTR cams and lower compression, also using the Skunk2 mani, and I hit 180 at the wheels also, so I'm sure there's potential to mak much more power there. If you put the manifold on, consider having it cleaned up, as stated earlier, the ports don't match perfect, and it's very rough throughout, made a world of difference in the midrange as well as the top end on my car. (look for a throttle body also)

 

Will i lose alot of midrange if i switch to the skunk2 manifold? Or could that be made up with hondata tuning?

 

I've heard positive things (better than Skunk2) about the JD Edelbrock Victor X Manifold...if you can them. Either way, it will definitely help out your car...

 

what type of header and exhaust do u have?

 

the JG manifold fits like **** for a street car. Hits the heater ****. Id stick with what you have man. You might want to look into a standalone ecu system or hondata.

Right now i have the JDM 4-1 and apexi n1 cat-back.
