    I've always loved this clean look when the wires are hidden. It seems there is a lot more space in the engine bay .

    Thanks, I cant decide If I want to tuck my injector wires through the manifold or I might just use the factory plastic piece that cleans them up a little bit. I know the resistor box could also be moved to the inside of the fender (actually the front bumper) on the factory a20 application.

    Its about half and half between heater and AC stuff. It is different in all cars. I know the heater core and the ac parts are backwards from our cars in some of the newer hondas.

    I just removed the plastic piece and tucked it behind the mani so all you see is the injectors. keep upthe good work.

    If you are asking if there is a fan in there, I have a slim fan so you cant see it.

    Re: Wire Tucking is the Sex

    Excuse me for the off topic, but can you tell me what's this header ?
    A Megan Racing ?
    Your car is OBD1 (only one O2 sensor) ?
    I'm desperately searching for a 4-2-1 header design for my CRX swap.
    I will also go OBD1. Can you tell me a little more about where you bought it ?
    PM me if you want, I really need to find a chep 4-2-1 header for a B16A OBD1.

    Thanks.

    Your engine bay is really clean !

    Yes it is a megan racing I got off eBay. I would not suggest getting this header unless you modify the end of it to a 2.5 inch collector. Besides that I have had no problems and I only paid $150 shipped.

    Edit: Little ebay search

    Thanks for the info !
    I really can't find a 4-2-1 design for the header on ebay.
    The only headers listed are 4 into 1

    My "only" chance will be to get a used 4-2-1 DCSports.

    On you pics, I was wondering where did you put your battery wires ?

    Since I removed the AC there was a hole for the AC water dump. I used that hole and ran the wire to the trunk.

    On the Megan racing website, they sell for about $170
    They also replace the header if it's defective... which is why I have the used Megan racing header for about $25 bucks and the guy that sold it to me got a replacement.
    The 2" diamter pipe after the secondaries should keep tq lower in the RPM range, but as legend said you can up the diameter to 2.5" That is the maximum you should go though.
    I didn't like where they placed the flex joint on my accord 4-2-1, I will eventually ditch the flex entirely and make it all 2" pipe, with 18" of added lenght to the pipe, then exit into a 2.5" pipe or muffler depending on the room available. I'm also ditching the flex because it was the part that was defective and causing the leak so I'm kinda forced either way.


    Try to get a stainless from DC and they charge much much more.

    Re: Wire Tucking is the Sex

    I dont see why it would not be possible on the b20, Just run the wires through the fender and you are set. Just remember that I removed everything having to do with AC, Power steering, and Cruise control.
