as above, will this be worth using with stock b16b with standard b16b intake mani??

wat kinda gains will i see if any
 
wats the point of them so man?? heard a few lads havin them??
 
you wont need any bigger than an itr throttle body unless ur raising ur rev limit or displacment. an itr tb might be even a little to big for a 1.6
 
oh right.....so no real point.. wat bout skunk2 tb with skunk 2 mani
 
itr TB is as far as i would go with standard valvetrain
 
Going to a larger TB on B16 and D16 motors can actually lose you power unless some VERY serious mods have been made. For one thing, going with a larger TB will cause some very big issues within the plenum regarding anti-reversion properties and reduction in velocity and creation of turbulence.
Some enthusiasts are actually looking into running smaller TB's.
 
cheers lads, alot of gud info there:):)



Not trying to thread jack but I just want to show that there are ways to increase air and fuel into the engine in order to gain HP by just enhancing the performance of an already well designed intake system.

I'm actually trying some things to help the oem TB create more velocity with less turbulence. That way I can add a set of Acura RDX injectors and along with some tuning, hopefully see some good HP numbers.

Here's a TB radiused adapter that a few of us on another forum got together and had manufactured:

Here's a mock up with TB installed and the intake mold that I have designed, to build out of carbon fiber.

Here's an idea of what it should look like when completed.

im not liking the look of the intake pipe but thats cool how your doin your own thing man get some before and after dyno results up man:nice:

This is very cool. We tried something ghetto like this back in the day with a small speaker port and while we never got it dyno'd, we felt at the very least, it SEEMED to improve response. AFRs were changed slightly too.

Is this the one that HondaNickx designed?

Bravo! :nice:

It sure is man!

Nick came up with the dimensions based on what he had learned on Edyne's site and by doing his own research, then we had them made here in the states. The intake is the recommended design by Larry at Endyne. He found that this shape made the best overall numbers versus his stepped design.

I'll be installing a new head that I have ported and milled along with Bisi springs and cam, but I will first install a stock Z6 IM and TB. I'll dyno it and then switch over to this design to see how much difference it makes. Then after that I will add the RDX injectors and dyno again.

@Glenniz keep us updated on this when you dyno it, I'm curious to see the results:nice:

Will do!!

I hope she dynos well...alot of time and effort, as well as research has gone into this project!
I'll be starting back to work as soon as the weather improves, we just had a real good snow storm last night.
 
Yeah Baby!!!!

Today was the trial run for the TBRIA and TBRIA Custom Intake. Basically I wanted to make sure of fitment so that the intake can be used on all 92-95 Civics, 2DR, 3DR and 4dr in either SRI or CAI design. With a little tweaking here and there I think we will be in business. I'll should have one of the intakes in Beave's hands over the next week, so I'll make him my 3DR Guinea Pig.

Bottom line is, The TBRIA was installed with nothing else changed on the motor. No change in fuel pressure, my ecu is not chipped so there are no changes there and I'm still using the oem 240cc injectors.

At low rpm's I notice a slight difference, but at 4200 rpm's it starts pulling and pulling and pulling, all the way to about 7000 rpm's. I didn't take it beyond that because I hit the rev limiter right after that.

All I can say is that it works very, very well, and with the addition of the ported Z6 intake, the RDX injectors and my ecu chipped, this little fuc%er should pull very hard. Some time in July I should have it on the dyno so I can do some comparative pulls. That's when we will know for sure. I will also post pic's of it in CAI design as well as when I paint it.

Thank You Nick for getting all of this started!!! You are the MAN!!!!

Thanks Men!

By the end of the week I should have the parts needed to make it into a CAI and get it painted.

I can't wait to have the entire combination put on the dyno to see what kind of gains are realized. Tuning and the RDX injectors will be the real key to power here.
 
It's been a while since I have had the time to finish up this little project but here she is. The final version in CAI design. The system works amazingly well, especially on the top end. The motor is truly able to breath much better.

All this butt dyno stuff means nothing though, I'll be at the dyno before the end of summer and I'll post results.
