UPDATE: 10/2004 MPFI swap and Thermal R&D Exhaust

[travagliante]

Yep what a weekend. Look at all what I have accomplished.....

Well first off i did a MPFI swap with a Skunk2 Raing Intake Manifold, and mpfi parts from a z6 and f22b injectors....

Heres what it looks like at first glance....



Side view....



Hmmm... some creative modding in order to get this in--well not really but look at the lack of firewall clearance....



Oh and the a6 Distributor for a everyone who has never seen one...haha



Well to make a long story short, the stock exhaust rusted out again.. first time for me but like 10th for this car--lifetime waranty~THANK GOD! For original owner only. So looking at my lack of exhaust company choices I chose Thermal Research and Development.. And let me say i have been very happy with that choice.. Lifetime waranty no matter what owner.. very light but durable and solid built.

Here is a pic of the tip(sorry took it like 10 min ago at 10:30pm, so plz excuse the shadows....



Here is a shot from underneath my Extreme kit. Yep look at the riced up neons.....Oh and the wire is there because the exhaust rubs up against my kit and rattles..


Well hope everyone enjoys!!! Just wanted to keep people updated because i dont post that much anymore.....

I like the manifold, what cc are those f22 injectors?

[travagliante]

Thanks, Um size of the injectors... i dont have the slightest idea. i needed obd0 injectors and thats all i could find at the junkyard.---the appear to be the same size as si/ex or integra ones but that doesnt mean anything!

[GTA]

nice, are you running 2 purge solinoids?

[civicHBsi91]

good choice on the exhuast! I love mine, has a unique sound doesent really sound like the typical honda does it?

[Civic Jim]

looks nice mate, take some more pics

[turtlecrxsi]

Nice job. You might want to wrap up your mpfi wiring more just to be safe... I guess that's why our d16s have those little plastic tubes holding the wiring above the injectors.

[Hilikus Funkin]

thats the classic exhaust right? The 2 1/4? Im gonna get the turbo 3".

[91civicDXdude]

injectors are 240cc just like d16a6

[travagliante]

Yeah i had to run both purge selinods because i didnt have enough vaccum lines to run to the vaccum canister!!! Still need to wrap up the lines and get it looking all pretty!

lol

Yes it is the classic exhaust sys. by thermal r+d. And i do agree, it does have a different sound, something that you would hear on like a nissan or such.

why dont you leave the firewall purge solenoid hooked up like it is, and unhook the vacuum line going to the manifold mounted purge solenoid and hook it to the vacuum nipple right by it? I see the manifold purge solenoid doesnt even have power going to it...

[travagliante]

Yeah i dont want to be like a looser but all i didnt was put the manifold on, and transffer the z6 parts over. I was very busy with work and i had Lightspeed High Performance motorsports do it. They are in Saint Louis and owned by rtec. Yeah but im going to do what you said 91civicDXdude.

oh yeah and i triple checked it is a YS1 on the integra i have so if your interested hit me up. we can meet half way!

[Hybrid1990crx]

looks good! still only have one cam, but thats ok! lol.

Can you get some more pics of the exhaust? I want to see how it looks. Like one from a few feet back.

[travagliante]

hey i used to have dual cam engine (dohc zc) and then a vtec (sohc vtec d16z6) so if you put it together like this:
DOHC (zc) + (sohc) Vtec = dohc Vtec

its all in how you interpert it!
haha
