Same IM and TB I have for my build. You beat me to it, looks good. Did you wind up boring out the manifold to match the 68mm TB?

Very nice mod... Skunk2 makes some great stuff. Is that their new composite fuel rail?

Weird, the 68 mm cleared just fine on mine... but I decided to bore it anyway. I think the manifold is 64 mm. Spacing between the manifold and throttle plate must be different on your TB.

it did clear also but we just took the dremel and filed it away for like 10-15 mins....cleaned it on the tank and bolted the pieces back on....the job took 4 hours to do because we took our time...taking the old manifold was fun

and yeah that is the skunk2 fuel rail....cost alot of money....we also used the password jdm hondata thermal gasket

so what about the zenom or golden eagle intake how well would they work with a turbo they look like they have a bigger plentom then the vector X and the skunk2?

This is an awesome mod! This is exactly what i was asking rendon questions about yesterday I believe. I was looking at these exact parts too! I will be purchasing them in january once my financial aid check comes in lol.

What cams did you go with? I have no idea what to do about cams

Overall looks great man! Congrats!

to me it just makes since to have a bigger plentom if your turboing the car but i just going off the look of them horse power freaks as a pretty good list of different ones on the b18



i was just looking at the web cam spec's. between the stage 1 and 2. and the stage 1 has more lift but more duration and the stage 2 is the opposite if im reading it right. but i talked to the guy from bisi and he said the turbo cam is a cherry cam to have.

yeah ITs a great power gain if you get the plemun up graded. MY B16a manifold is up for sell. I bought it from Steve but i want a vector X so there for its up for grabs I was going to slap it on my A but ill just save the hassle when im building my new block. Flow is key. And are stock plemuns are garbage. I saw messys shit on the dyno. MAN im like just think with some boost LOL. Pulls hard acts like it wants to go to 8k EASY.....Very nice work beaner.

yeah not very safe with a open tb.. but what i like about this mod is that it opens up the engine bay so you can work on the car
