Hi there guys and girls.
Just wondering if the hayward itb system will fit under the hood of my K SWAPPED EG6. And it is also possible to run an airbox without alterations to my hood. So before i send myself broke. Maybe someone somewhere knows, or knows someone you runs this System would you please care to share some Info with me.
Kind Regards
Wont be possible to run airbox at all without any modification to the bonnet.
What if i run it without an airbox?
Didn't JDMYard EGK20A have to cut a big hole in the bonnet to clear ITB's?
Yeah but apparently these Hayward ITB's are designed so that its fits without cutting the hood.
I believe you still have to cut some of your bonnet skeletonQuote:

Hhmmm in that case it would probably fit but there's still the possibility that you'll have to cut the reinforcing behind the hood.
but what will i be gaining with ITBS if i dont run it an airbox. Can they be run efficiently without run.
Can always just buy another hood?
Yes haywards will fit under the bonnet. As for running airbox, there not needed.
You'll gain response and midrange, but the point of itbs is a longer, faster intake charge with more control due to individual throttles, but the haywards ( or jenveys ) can be ordered in a few different configs for the k20, some longer then others, tapered or straight throttles to name a few.Quote:

More often then not, people in the scene do not properly set up itbs and take advantage of what they have to offer, rather, they look the part.
I dont know what your looking to use the car for, but im guessing your just trying to get the most you can under that bonnet without cutting it, i would be taking the time to build an airbox and intake to suit.
Thanks for the info guys, Much appreciated. So pretty much for it run at optimal level it needs an airbox. And if im not willing to cut my bonnet then pretty much forget about it.

Honestly, It’s a waste of time if you just fit them for the sake of it.
For the money invested it makes no sense to go about things half arsed.
Though the Haywards may not have an air box readily available, a TWM or Jenvy one might work, failing that there’s no reason one could not be produced.
Further, there are other ITB’s for similar money on the market that can be made to clear & have a box fitted.
Though space will be a premium in an EG, ITB’s & an airbox can be done.
You’re right,Quote:

On the drag strip however, in an attempt to get more air in, the hood was bashed down exposing the trumpets.
The buffeting air flow over the trumpets net effect was a drop in MPH (or HP loss)
Contrary to popular belief, forward facing exposed trumpets is not such a good thing..
If they're going to be left open, they'll work a lot better in a tray, box or bucket.
Smooth linear airflow is your friend.
Though air filters are optional, they’re still a good idea (insurance)
Adrian once again, always on the money. Good on ya mate :thumbsup:
Alright so it can be done. But with alot of custom work i believe? Your right Adrian no point spending money for the sake of it.Quote:

Here are some pics for those who are interested
TWM ITB on our EG hatch back in the days

They stick out quite abit

In This picture, wouldn't it be better to have the trumpets fully exposed then have it half cover by the bonnet? Is because the pic is the way it is.Quote:

What do you plan on using the car for? Because the rules of whatever you plan on using the car for may prohibit anything from protruding from the bodywork of the car (eg. the All Motor class).
Well good question, i havent really figured that answer out for myself yet. This is pretty much what i have in mind. I wanna build it now for drags. I wanna try and get as much power as i can out if this engine.Quote:

Im gonna stick all the roll cages in and necessary track accessories and setup and tune the thing for the track.
People say you cant do both its either drag or track, But im gonna try. I hope to finish this car in 6months from now. And then the testing will begin. But right now im new to this and im doing my research so that i get this right for i what i want.
Its good to hear from other people what they think and recommend.

If the Chinese art of copying wasnt so rife like it is in the us, this wouldnt be such a problem, but that just isnt the case which is a shame for the K series people with ips knowing where every manifold goes should a copied product turn up, saying that, they arnt as good as a proper itb set-up though.Quote:

Since IPS is almost impossible to get a hold off. Try the local JDMYard Superman Intake! -> http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=78821Quote:

Its abit like now everyone in the K world is singing and posting the praises of the new kinsler itbs, and saying how fantasic they are and how they got 20 more horse power from there 50-54 jenvey/twm itbs against there 62mm kinslers, its not rocket science there top end is looking the goods.
The proof is in the pudding in Motorsport, itb's are fitted to everything at the extreme of N/A performance, alot of people just wouldnt have a clue on correct sizing both in diameter, length, and trumpet used, addressing its feed/intake also as discussed here, something most people that fit them think isnt required to get the most of them, hence there results against such products.
any pics of this IPS intake manifold?
Similar design to mine , We started to post pics on k20a.org back in 2004. And these days they look all like that .Quote:

race proven!
extreme of N/A performance on a honda right there...
What's that hanging at the bottom of the car?
Its a velocity stack or bellmouth used to feed the throttle body, and yeah for a given appliction and what i said was a problem for forward facing itbs, the ips manifold has been designed like an itb set-up like i also said earlier, longer runners, with bellmouths, an airbox fed from an inlet pipe with the air being channeled after a 90 degree turn with a throttle plate that controls flow, it is a good thing dont get me wrong, but its made with a multi purpose/engine application and they have done their homework to suit the K, but................it still wont out do a properly sorted itb set-up, and with it, you'll get your midrange and response, not really required in drag racing though is it?????????????
i think he was talking about the metal tray under the engine...the call them "engine nappy's". In place to catch fluids ect if such disasters take place. One of the many requirements in the States when you get to that level of Drag racing
My set up
Proven :11.82sec@113.6mph on a stock k24a3 internals

properly sorted ITB 5-8k? is it worth it? IPS manifold are the shit!
Or AFI Intake Manifold like on Tim Grey's EGQuote:

Yeah i was talking about the tray, but i really didnt know what a v-stack actually did anyway so thanks for filling me in. So many intake systems!!!! just make 1 or 2, why so many?? how do you know whats better than the other, at the end of the day it really comes down to personal preference. Sometime your force into a corner to decide is it worth it.
Is it really worth spending 5k+ on the intake system. Really how much better is it gonna be than your 3k one or even 1k.
Back on topic, if Flick has the money to do it properly opposed to finding a cheap way out which is common practice to so many on here, not to mention his purpose isnt just drag racing which is where these manifolds are used with good results, it is the way to go and ive seen the dyno results and MPH on US cars.Quote:

When are you planning to have a built motor BTW Yonas, anytime soon?
Will do it sometimes this year hopefully.Quote:

Hahahahaha, unlike the other "proven" set-ups you speak of, hahahahaha, you really do make me laugh Jimmy, talking about all these other proven cars you speak so highly of......................Quote:

Just queitly, were you driving your car when it pulled 107.7's, shouldnt be to hard for you to reproduce come race time then should it?
Like i said, looking forward to an interesting year of super sprints. :thumbsup:
Yes power to weight wins. Just leave it up to the pro's that has run 10's and 11's comment. :thumbsup:Quote:

No i didnt think you were, is he available all season? :pQuote:

Like i said, look forward to seeing the talk do the walk, and no i hadnt heard, just assumed, look forward to seeing the results on the board. :thumbsup:
I'm pretty sure he's being sarcastic, Benny drove the car, as has always been the case for a very long time now. They hit a PB of 1:07 but were running consistent back to back 1:08's on fading brake pads and initial suspension setup not suited to the heavier engine.Quote:

Having wasted way too much money on cars already in my life I will say one thing. DO IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME !!! There is nothing worse than having to do things over and over again because you tried to take the cheaper but not as good option. 9 times out of 10 it turns out to be the wrong decision. And in turn you end up spending more time and money than if you'd saved that little bit longer and bought what you really wanted the first time.
In other words don't take short cuts because they more than not don't pay off.

The Hayward system will fit under your EG Chassis.Quote:

hope that helps
Well thats my philosophy, im in the R/C (radio control cars) scene, That car you see in my Avatar cost me around 5K. I done the cheaper option before but you find yourself and you find yourself just stuck behind the top drivers. And then you end up buying the good shit. Not only that you wasted time and money. but in a way its a good learning curve. You really cant start with the top shit cuz by the time you learn to use it its due for a new one. you get my drift.Quote:

There is a redesigned Jenvey inlet manifold but we haven't tried one on an EG yet. It's also designed to use the stock power steering location and drive belt system, so it works fine on DC5's etc.
We've also got a new slim line Pipercross air box on the way. Might be worth a look.
Your probably going to be better off getting something custom made that seals against the bonnet and uses the bonnet as the top cover. You could still run a CAI as well.
Those times are fake :p We are only shit stiring..Quote:

back to the topic,
Haywards itbs are the shit, worth every penny if you can get them at a good price
