Heya All From A New DC5 Owner

Got the Fujitsubo PG and Injen CAI fitted today. I can't believe the difference it has made. The car isn't so much faster now, but it breathes soooo much better. It's as though beforehand it was running a marathon with a sock in it's mouth before. Throttle response has improved to the point that it feels like a different car. The PG is nice without being overly loud. The CAI is the dominant force on the car now. I knew they got loud, but this is just crazy. It now sounds like a real VTEC.

TODA headers fitted next Thursday. Then over to Shift for Tein Flex coilovers and Rays TE37s. Will post pics once fitted.

So excited, it's like I got a new car all over again. Anyone who doesn't do these mods to their ITR isn't experiencing it at all.

Nice ride.

You will get much more power out of your Toda headers than any sort of CAI. CAI is more of a combo of roar sound plus very sliiiiiiiight performance increase (if any at all) Personally, I think the stock airbox for the K-series is already very good.

I also got TODA headers and also fitting next thursday, LOL.

Yeah, the CAI was just to complete the package. Nice throttle response as I mentioned. Car also gets alot more looks when throttle is opened up.

Got the TE37s fitted today and the Tein's tuned. The car feels amazing to drive and looks hot.

I'll take some better pics tomorrow.

Haven't been on for a while but i Thought I'd update the mods list.

Picking up my new ARC 36mm radiator, GReddy catch can and oil cooler, Cusco rear strut brace tomorrow. Got Samco hoses to be fitted along with the radiator. Fitted a JDM spark plug cover to complete the engine bay look.

Ordered an INGS carbon bonnet like the one below.

Will probably go with Cusco sway bars and nolathane bushes. OEM clutch is still fantastic. Will need a camber kit for the rear as current height gives excessive negative for the road.

Next round of mods I'm a little confused as to what to do. Still waiting on the AP Racing rotors which have taken forever to arrive. Looking for a combination of cams and 2200cc stroker kit with ECU. Thought about a TODA/Autronic combination complete with quad throttle bodies and larger race cams.

Any advice would be great.

wow ur not wasting any time, oohh stroker kit, ITB's and cams fark that would be sweet, costly but sweet.

Just ordered a Mugen thermostat and Sparco suede racing wheel. Now to find a boss kit. Anyone know if I'll need to have the airbag light reset by Honda?

**matt** · 18-10-2007 11:37 PM

i think u need more than the ligth reset, i cant recall exactly what u need, but u need to put something across the connector to prevent the light being on.

i think some of the boss kits come with the bits u need to fix it, maybe look into the spoon ones.
