EG Civic with D15B

[Stroza]

Hi all,

Im the happy owner of a EG Civic with a D15B SOHC VTEC motor. I was wondering what kinda mods can be done to extract as much power as i can. Currently it has a cheapo Super cheap pod filter, with the standard rubber pippin and a cannon muffler tip ( which i found out last nyt, gets so hot it was glowin red with sparks flying out!!) Is that bad??? :D

I wanted to get a full exhaust with extractor, high flowed cat and thicker pippin' with perhaps a simota pod set up??? also maybe an aftermarket ECU and cam! Can you guys please help by tellin me what you've found go's best...

I live in sydney..

Thanks
Stroza D Dozza.

...O YEAH I 4GOT TOO MENTION I WANTED IT KEEP IT N/A...

search and you shall find....

ask weq about his turbo sohc vtec....

[type one]

Turbo charge that beast. Forget I/h/e on a small output engine, you'll make the most useable power with a T/C.

man, a nice intake with shield and stuff will be a good move, loose the cheap ass pod.

get header, 2.25 hi flow cat and also 2.25 twinloop.

then b16 throttle body, y8 intake manifold and then look at a cam/cam gear.

boosting is good also but can be exxy and cause insurance issues.

I've heard about these twin loop exhausts... how do they work and where would I be able to buy one from???

[garett]

you said you wanted to upgrade your cheap pod to a simota....


the simota pods are one of the cheapest nasty pods available get something cleanable and not made out of old newspapers

as for exhausts get a listen on a few others before you make your mind up, i still cant decide what i want to go for

[garett]

that twin loop muffler looks awesome... i would say probably a good choice

thanxs man, I think the car was originally just a GL, but the person i bought it from did the front-cut conversion... Engine, gearbox dash and climate control have all been installed.. also i believe the guy installed the power windows.

k&n and bmc are a good start both being cleanable and about the same sort of performance/ price, around 90 to 130 bucks

then i would say apexi, blitz etc looking around 200 bucks

spoon filters bout 400 bucks (too much)

do some research i have found UNI filter to be good which is what i use awesome price and awesome performance, they are foam like the spoon ones and start from about 80 bucks to about 170

[Stroza]

thanxs man...

The twin loop exhaust really looks gud.. there heaps quite aswell right?? would extractors and a high flow'd cat make them louder??? also what diameter pippin is best for the car?? 2inches, would it need to be mandrel bent or is press bent ok???
