I mean oem as in your stock si is ok for n/a bolts on,if you gonna do something major like cams and stuff then you would need a bigger injectors.

nasty build....inspirational honestly

How long after you placed your order with PRL did you get a tracking number? It looks like you received the order within a week. I ordered on Tuesday and don't even have a tracking number yet, so I can't imagine I'll get my order by Tuesday.

 

[immajackuup]

I didn't get tracking order at all till I bug prl about it. once I did the damn package was at someone else house.

 

[JAYBLS]

Haha well I guess I won't bug them about a tracking number.

 

[immajackuup]

you should have your rbc kit next week.

 

[JAYBLS]

What'd you do to make your exhaust stop rattling? Which hanger did you bend? Mine is driving me crazy!

 

[immajackuup]

you mean banging against lower control arm??? nothing,just deal with it..

 

[JAYBLS]

It's not banging on anything. It's rattling at idle and random times.

 

[immajackuup]

check your mid pipe

Where did you get that intake and how much does that one cost. I like the look of it. Very nice looking ride.

 

[JAYBLS]

It's definitely in the back. I think it's hitting the heat shield on the gas tank.

i forgot where but google it and it should cost 250bucks..

does it rattle when hitting bumps or car idling/sitting still??

 

[JAYBLS]

Both. Maybe not hitting bumps specifically. It seems to be dependent upon RPM and some other random variable I can't figure out. I bent that heat shield back a little and it doesn't rattle anywhere near as bad now. I'll have to get under there again tomorrow when I'm installing the RBC and take a pry bar to that heat shield and bend it back more. Hopefully that takes care of it.

 

[immajackuup]

just install my rbc and it wasn't an easy task..
3in silicone cup was a ***** to install on 70mm tb..

few tips on PRL RBC
honda bond that coolant port because it will leak slowly

bend bracket that hold on to harness so plug can reach to dbw tb.

you will need to find a plug for that nipple.

run long hose under intake manifold.

Your build's looking great so far, and thanks for sharing your tech tips so others on the site can hook their rides up.

I was totally going to suggest checking your heat shields. I had the same problem on my first 8th gen. Once you isolate where the rattle's coming from, get underneath the car and hit the heat shield with a rubber mallet until you're ratter free. It sounds barbaric, but it worked for me.

Had a heat shield do this to me ^

Soooooooo freaking annoying! It's a sweet feeling of satisfaction when you FINALLY figure out where it's coming from...then you get to smash it away with a rubber mallet. Sweet relief.

 

[JAYBLS]

That one you plugged is where that longer hose right underneath it is supposed to go. That one on the top in between injectors 1&2 doesn't do anything on our car.

That silicone coupler SUCKED getting on. I was pleading with it out loud to just cooperate. I'm sure anyone walking by must've thought I was a crazy person.
