Hi, I have a 1997 JDM Honda Integra. I have only basically worked on the outside so far. The only things speed wise I have added is a full CAI and a Apex'i Cat-back exhaust system. I am going this all motor, no forced induction and I am about to start working on boosting up my horses; can you guys from HT give me all your advice on where to start?? Your methods on what to buy and what kind of HP gain I can look for in specific parts. Come on HT, help me out as much as you can.

Thanks alot.

J's intake, get the basic. Header's, intake manifold, and etc

I'd start with a good set of cams.

Whats your budget? Im sure you will get more help/responses if people know approx how much $$ you have to work with.

Cheers

why dont you help yourself out and save us the bullshit post and search the archives before you ask a question that was asked a 1000 times before you.

For the 3rd time today;

SEARCH!!!

JDMTegraKid

Well right now I'm working with about 2 Grand. And I've tried searchin man but damn, the amount of unrelated garbage that comes up is a waste of my time so why not make my own post with responses to exactly what I'm looking for??

Thanks Alot.

Oh yeah, thanks to guy that suggested Cams, what brand you think is best to use to get the most horses and what kind of Hp gain we lookin' at?

LSVTEC 91 Civic

Well, the Skunk2 Stage2 are slightly larger over the ITR cams, thats probably what I'm going to go with... You'll probably need Titanium springs and retainers too with the larger cam. You said you're going NA, so you could probably raise the compression to around 12.0-12.5:1. (Headwork - Port/Polish/Mill) Depending which engine you have, the ITR intake manifold is a great manifold, and a header would compliment your catback, I'm using a JDM ITR 4-1, its a real nice header. Finally, get a VAFC and get tuned on the dyno, I gained 11HP with 1/2 hour dyno time, and my engine ran better afterwards.

Just some things to think about...

J's style intake. You should be pleasantly suprised.

with those el cheapo intake filter of a KN brand-filter type?

Rocket

Not sure but the big pipe works.

MajorPayne

you pansies quit talking crap about the filter, go and get a k&n for it (part # RT-4610 ), theres one company that sells them with the k&n already on there, anyways the intake is def worth it, and now that i know rocket likes it, it makes me that much more happy i have it, since i heard he knows what hes talking about a little

Rocket

I hate to be a spokes person for the J's intake but that **** makes some powa!

Seen dramatic results with me own eyes.

MajorPayne

you can fit it in your gsr with stock im/tb...i did it

where can you get a J's intake for the best price?

LSVTEC 91 Civic

Check out this guys dyno before and after J's intake...

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=891818

+6HP, +5TQ

How much is J's intake? Under $100 I hope....

MajorPayne

nope, not under 100 unless you get a killer deal from someone, they are like 280 new, that varies depending who you get it through

From the pictures I have seen, they look like they are made out of carbon fiber. Therefore, it is highly doubtfull they are under 100 bones.

JDMTegraKid

Aight, thanks alot guy's, where can I get a J's Intake with the best filter (K&N???) for a decent price?? And are they really made from pure carbon fibre? What other suggestions besides Intake can yoou gimme in terms of quick HP gains? Does anyone have the OEM side skirts and rear lip for sale or know where to get um?

Rocket

Witnessed this with my own eyes. +19whp in the mid and +17whp on top.

Was there also tuning involved? Or, is that just from the air intake upgrade?

Nope. 10 sec deal. Took off the stock rubber intake arm and slapped on the whale ***** and voila!, ITB perf. like gains.

you can find them for sale in the classifieds pretty often, thats where i got mine, i think ajracing sells them, and some other places, search in some threads about it and you can see where people got thiers, and yep its solid carbon fiber

ShaunRR

You can go with an aftermarket header. If you want to see some good gains, though, you will have to spend some money.

You can get by with a DC 4-1, but the gains won't be very impressive.

The real good gains can be had from brands like AN-R, Hytech, SMSP, and a few others. Do a search and check it out.

I think(not positive on this one) the cheapest "good" one is the Bisimoto. If I remember correctly, those are in the 5 to 6 hundred dollar range.

Edit: found them here http://www.a-t-s-usa.com/other...shtml
the abs plastic one is $251 and the cf one is $299, both include shipping.
