Default Just got an 02 EP3 and have some questions

Hey,

Just got my 02 EP3 and I am pretty psyched. It has a K20a2, RBC manifold, 6sp with LSD, ported head with Crower cams and a Kiddracing header...among other things. Anyway, here are a few questions I hope you all could help me with:

1. The car has a six puck un-sprung clutch that seems to rock the hell out of the engine if I am not super careful..would an engine damper help this? If so, what should I get?

2. It has a kiddracing header...so if I want to buy another catback, what do I get? One for an EP3, RSX, RSX-S?

3. I installed my Sparco steering wheel (hub did fit from my EK) and I now have the airbag light on.....do I have to put 2 resistors on the SRS plug, one for each stage?

Sorry for all the questions, hope you guys can help.

Appreciate it!

engine damper will not do a thing... either hard racing mounts are change the clutch

As for airbag yes you would have to do 2 resistors for each stage because the ep3 and rsx have 2 stage airbags

What exhaust is on the car now? Assuming it's a stock midpipe, you can measure the OD. This will tell you if it's a Civic or an RSX exhaust. Civic will be < 2", RSX will be > 2" inches. That should tell you which exhaust you'll need.

It has a buddy club exhaust on it...it also looks like the b-pipe has been extended by a few inches, that's why I asked what exhaust I would need.

Type 's'paz....do you mean one resistor per stage? for a total of 2 resistors?
