LOL. My bro in law got that one off yesterday after some friggin around! Its a biatch alright.Originally Posted by EUR003act
lol my bracket is still sitting there... freakin bolt cross threaded or something... ive been meaning to remove it for weight reduction reasons
haha the culprate:
Only issue with my RBC was extending the MAP sensor lead (easy), realizing I didnt need to tap a nipple for the vacuum line ( very easy!), screwing around with the comptech ( with OEM) rubber intake fitting with the different run to the RBC ( hard but got it 95% ok) and getting a longer hose for one fitting( easy).
I also installed the Hondata heatshield gasket and routed the throttle body heat bypass back into into the cooling system (incredibly easy, you dont need any joiners or anything for the TB bypass, 1 minute job). This has GREATLY cooled off the TB and RBC IM.
Both this cooler manifold intake air and RBC design has really opened my engine and power delivery. It sounds friggin fantastic at 4000-7600rpm. It also pulls like a muther by about 5500rpm.
I can feel the extrapower and the throttle response is instant. The RBC plus the breathing mods and Jtune flash have made my car come alive. It really obvious. i was hoping Jtune+rBC would work together and they certainly seem to compliment each other. The earlier Vtec+RBC meand the torque and power keeps coming in a smooth creamy power delivery.
I dont think I lost any torque at this stage. I certainly can't feel it. I can feel the extra surge and eagerness in the higher rev band. Its great. It revs HARD!
Ill confirm this with a dyno within a week or so. The RBC is also lighter than the RBB system so WiNA for tiny weight reduction.
Now lets get back on topic.
Whats the status on this build? Are we ready for dyno yet ? Any info?
im glad you like it! hehehe i told you you wouldnt regret it
