Hi bro
Step 16:
Ok now make sure all nuts/bolt are done up tight so it doesnt leak. Now would be a good time to reset your ecu. take out the the ecu chip out of your fuse box in teh engine bay for like 10min and put it back in.
dose reset your ecu do anything coze I didn't do it for my Xforce's
Thx LukeZen

Just a couple questions Trav :)
1 - Did you use a new gasket? or reuse your one?
2 - When tightenin the bolts to the block, did you tighten them to a specific torque? or just hand tighten very hard?
-
Trav how long did the install take? Did you do the whole install by yourself?
-
gasket? new on came with header y0!
tirqued to trav spec, so no, just hand tighten but not over tighten.
also sunny man did this all by myself, took me like 2 hrs with taken pics and gettion burnt by still stock header, diy fo sure! :thumbsup:
was fun tho.
-
sorry umm isit just me or the pics not working?...

-
awesome dude :thumbsup: ....was reading it this morning without pics wondering where they were...
-
cheeeeeeeeers!! *thumbs up*
was just wondering where the heat shield was covering is there a reason there doesnt need to be one with the aftermarket extractors??
-
im not sure mate, some ppl make heat sheilds for their aftermarket headers, i see no point on my car as there isnt aircon or bullshit like that that needs to be protected so i dont and would not worry.

hmmm interesting,
i was under the impression that stock SOHC VTI and DOHC non vtec Si had the same power output.
my mate with EG SOHC VTi got 75.7FwKw's.
with just K&n Panel filter, CAI, Cat-back press bent 2.25 inch piping and muffler box.(lukey i think cus this was done at midas).
so stock headers everything and got 75.7fwkws. he has a very nice constant Air/fuel ratio graph almost a str8 line
Damnz, i knew was up with his car it was stock as a rock when he bought it about 1.5years go. cus my mate with stock b16a in XSi teggy only got 78fwkws.
BY the way NICE WRITE up trav as usual. :thumbsup:
heheh thanks for the wheels im spraying them, its gona look HOTT ! :thumbsup:
