Is a type R ECU, skunk manifold, Spoon t/b, and Type R intake worth doing?

I currently have i/h/e and type r cams.

 

what motor?

gsr?

b16?

 

Sorry 2000 gsr

 

sure thing it is..for a reliable all motor set up it is. i have the skunk2 IM, itr intake, ctr intake cam, but running a chipped p28 w/ my custom all motor program...and it KICKS *** !!! w/o the skunk IM, chipped p28, and itr cai, i was running 14.8-15.0, now i'm running 14.5

 

Definately worth it

 

Sounds good but I rather get an OBD1 ecu re-chipped or get Hondata.

Thank you guys Ericks throttle body requires me to remove and install the tps sensor. Erick says he can do it for $60. I'd rather get a Spoon t/b.

 

sounds like a good list of mods to get. you can get the spoon T/B, but u'r probably better off buyin an FPR and some dyno time and tuning the cams with the i/h/e, intake manifold, and fpr.

I would wait for the new aebs intake manifold. or get your gsr IM ported and polished. can run from 100-300 depending upon time spent to do it.

type r ecu isnt worth it. just get a hondata setup or vafc

what i/h/e do you have?

you could put that money into getting a real header, ie, smsp or hytech and others

u have cam gears too?

I don't know how, there aren't screws to take off. Even if I am able to get it off, how do I adjust the TPS sensor?

I have a Comptech Ice Box, JDM type R 4-1 headers, Carsound cat, and RSR exhaust, B&m Fpr and gauge, Civic Type R cams, and Toda Cam gears
