if i bought that i would eliminate the stock fuel filter all together, or you could have 2 filters to ensure clean fuel,and since thats an inline i would put that before the stock filter on the underside of the car by purchasing 2 barb fittings that would fit the stock line, i have bought 2 of the barb fittings that have that fuel filter thread with the correct barb size for the stock line at home depot, or you could put that filter after the stock one, by doing the same thing, but you also should think about fuel flow restriction, dont know how well it would flow with 2 filters, but like i said i would do away with the stock one all together, pop the stock fuel filter off and get a fitting to fit thatn stock hard line with a barb on it and go to the fuel rail.......good luck with that dude.......

Why do you want to get that? Stock works fine. IMHO more trouble than it's worth to try to get that one to work.

Default Stock Fuel Filter Probs?

I was wondering somewhat the same thing. Back when I had a 1G DSM the stock fuel filter was a major bottle neck in fuel delivery. Not to mention the supply line as well. If I look at the Honda fuel filter .. it looks the same as the DSM filter. Has anyone ever tested the stock fuel filter to see if it flows enough for our application?
http://www.stevetek.com/R-FuelSys.html This is a good write up about the DSM Fuel Filter and SS AN line modifications. They also rewired the fuel pump to get the most out of the in-tank fuel pump.

Boosted Hondas putting down hundreds of fwhp run stock fuel filters, so I'm sure it's fine. Just go to Napa and buy a new one for around $20.

LOL

yeah, my first time changing one out it caught me in the eye. Talk about pain.

Words of advice: open the gas cap to releave some of the pressure then put a rag on top of your wrench/ratchet. There WILL be gas spray! It helps if one person holds a rag and one person loosens the bolt.

hmmm just got this email

Hello,

We want to help you with your project by selling you the right parts. I'm not quite sure where you got the 230106 from, but it is not right for your application. That part has a bronze element for a filter, that only flows 4-5 gallons per hour, and is designed for carburated applications where the pump only puts out 5-7 PSI. Fuel injected Honda engines are pressurized at no less than 45 PSI depending on the engine. The problem is that the bronze will disintegrate and the particles will clogg-up the injectors. The Honda factory filter is very good unless you are making power in excess of 250 HP. Let us know, what you want to do and we will set you up with the right stuff. We can even supply you with parts that allow you to use braided hose with the factory filter.

Thank you,

ANPlumbing Sales

looks like i can't use that one!

The hose that is connected to the fuel filter clamp, what is that for? I believe it's a clear-red hose.

What is a "Banjo Bolt"

Will a standard 12mm wrench with box end work or is a special tool needed?
