Lets Talk d-series

Skunk2 and blox do aftermarket IM for the d.

Mine being the y4 is the black sheep of the d's and it's a nightmare to run a b16 60mm TB,so I would need a custom IM,like this one!

I was gonna buy it but opted against it.

mines the y1 (z6 i think for any US folk) and is probably the best one out there along with the y8

where can i download / buy a d16z2 engine manual ?

cheers,
Gunn.

apprently i have a d16y1 aswell so im in good shape for aftermarket support yes?

$250 for that it seems reasonable

Yeah forsure,like the y8 but talk to 'lukezen' he had a y1 and turbo'ed it up etc

I would look into the skunk2 IM cause they do all the research and the guys in the US favour them or blox for a cheaper option.

That on in the pic does look like a china job though :)

ebay it i got a manual for like 6 bucks

no wonder i cant find a D16z6 intake manifold in australia ... so i should be looking for a D16y1 instead?

the best 2 OEM intake manifolds for honda D series are:
D16z6: smaller resevoir but larger runners - nice all round gains focused on mid-high
D16y8: larger resevoir but smaller runners - more up high gains

skunk2: loose a little low end power but gain nice strong mid to high gains ... only recommended if you are doing everything (I/H/E, cams or turbo etc)
apparently if u are just doing I/H/E and mild cam etc the D16z6 IM is the best value for money, but hell if you can afford Skunk2 for a single banger - go for it

im trying to decide which one to get

after almost giving up on trying to find a D16z6 intake manifold i was going to get a skunk2 system instead ... but if someone can confirm that the D16y1 is the same than i will hunt one down =D

Correct D16y1 and D16z6 are the same motor (Well 99%)

Both are 92-95 SOHC VTec 1.6l

Close to all internal and external parts are interchangeable

so i should be chasing up a D16y1 intake manifold?

did we get the D16z6 over here?

No we don't get the D16z6 over here

D16Y1 Or D16Y8 IM

sweet so i already have the best intake for my engine (besides going skunk2 or blox)
