Dual-stage intake manifold - B18C

[VTEChnique]

hmmmm.. hondar - Vgood explanation !!

I will be doing a fair bit of auto-x so I guess the dual stage item may be good for low and mid range torque...

So I now need B18C ECU...

Bede i did tell you you will need a B18C ECU ! Besides i thought u knew that too.
Anyone could have told you the B16A one wont work properly with B18C. Thats why i held up with that B18C civic with B16 ecu.

VE = Volumetric Efficiency in %

How is this value calculated ?

skunk2 manifold is not that expensive at the moment because of our dollar. shipping is negligeble as well...chipped p28 ecu is your answer other wise just follow thangy's advice and keep the b18c ecu and get tuned with the new manifold.

actually,

shipping is the killer to my opinion. and the manifold is heavy. i used ems though for all expensive stuffs. or maybe there is a better way im not sure.

in any case i would go skunk2. its a bolt on considered to the ITR manifold and at the moment you can ship it from the usa for about 400 exc. shipping
...but its not a straight bolt on as some people think...you'll need to get the ITR throttle cable, pullies and other stuff to make it fit properly

[LatinoHatchCrap]

i'll be ordrering mine and keeping it until most of my bolt ons are done

Dude you need to READ the posts from the start..

I have B16A ECU, not B18C.. that is my problem !!

$400 for Skunk intake manifold + shipping + throttle cable etc = too much!!

I have a limited budget for my swap and are not going max power just yet, just want to get the near-stock B18C in there first.

180HP+ against 125HP.. I think this will be a worthwhile upgrade for now..
I want to get used to the new-found power and weight forst before I look further into setting up the car.. BALANCE is the word !!
