i want to get type r intake manifold on my b18b/b18a1 and i was jsut wondering what other part would i need beside the intake manifold and the throttle body.

 

there's no point to it. you already have a single runner intake, and its tunned to give you max hp&torque. if anything get a skunk2 oe victorx manifold.

 

Beside's it won't fit, the Type R IM will only fit a B16. The bolt patterns not the same. Got with the Skunk2 IM, they run about under 300.00....

 

yea sry i was talkin about the skunk2 type-r like intake manifold or something like that. would like AEM fuel rail, cold air intake, and what throttle would i need to use the stock or a new aftermarket one? would they fit and is there anything else i could do as basic bolt on to get like 20-30 hp more

 

What are your current mods? How high are you revving?

I almost went with a modified ITR manifold for my LS. I decided that a portmatched/bored stock LS manifold would be best for my application since I won't be revving past 7500 - maybe 8000 on occasion.

You will in fact lose some low end torque with the larger plenum and shorter runners of the ITR manifold.

Post your mods, maybe we can help out more afterwards.

well no mod yet but the first is going to be type-r fuel rail, type-r throttle body, and intake manifold. my mechanic and fellow team member say it should give about 10hp extra and a much stronger fuel management.

the fuel rail wont do ****. the throttle body might not even mount up. save your money and have your tb bored and your intake manifold bored and polished. with out doing any other mods you wont see much of an increase of hp. your still using the restrictive head and valves.

 

i c thank, what other mod would recommend to gain best bang for the buck. beside intake and exhaust.

 

Well i'm running on a Type R throttle body with a skunk2 IM. Revs faster and it's loud- exhuast tone, and the intake. i think it was a good upgrade. Oh yeah it's on a B17a1

 

aem intake, greddy header, exhaust well, thats up to you realy. also things like a good port&polish job goes a long way. cams, valve train, pistons can be done later.

thnk guys... soumd good... i think i might grab my self a skunk2 intake manifold and type throttle body, AEM seem good for me right now.. i like the intake sound..

 

how much is a type-r throttle body? just wondering cause it cost me 100$ to have my t/b bored and a stainless steel plate installed.

 

$170 for me shipped.

 

damn...seems getting your tb bored out is cheaper, but for 70$ more you get a spare one if you decide to return it to stock.

 

well i plan to keep all original parts. so either way just if i wanna go back i'll have all the stuff. but yea i really want to make something like a sleep DA1. It a nice average looking car. Dont want to rice it up, you know. So if any one have any more engine internal upgrade feel free to post and let me know. thnx

 

Theres a guy with a 12.4 second all motor b20 powered civic running an ITR manifold on an LS head. You have to drill some holes and do some cutting, etc, but you can make it work. I've heard of a couple other people doing it too.

 

yeah i heard about that it like some modding, i was thinking, maybe the skunk2 intake manifold would be better. I mean it have more chamber room and it clean cut like the type r
