future mods (hopefully)

[tcfridaydawg]

i believe that I'm real close to gettn the gsr that i wanted, i just have to wait to hear back from the guy. But while im waiting i was thinking of some of the mods i wanted to do so heres my idea:
o btw whats the difference between a cold air intake and a short ram intake? I know what a CAI is but im not sure what a short ram does differently

SRI or CAI
Apexi n1 exhaust
DC Sports 4-2-1 header
Type-R camshafts
Skunk2 cam gears
I'm thinking about an Edelbrock 65mm throttle body
10mm Ignition Cables
Skunk2 coilovers
Skunk2 rear sway bar
Dc Sports short shifter dont know if i want the dual bend or not
Skunk2 Intake Manifold

So theres my wishlist, critique away

A cold air intake is one that extends all the way out of the engine bay and sucks in colder air than a short ram intake will. The filter ends up behind the pass. side corner light in an Integra.

A short ram intake is just a short intake, about 18 inches long, the filter is in the engine bay.

Ditch the ignition cables, stick with OEM, which are NGK. They're blue and look great.

If you really want to add all those engine parts you have listed there, you'll need to add high compression pistons to the mix. If you're not going to swap out the pistons, then forget about the Skunk2 IM, the EdlebrockTB, the Type R cams and the cam gears. You need them all, or none of them at all.

And get a Carsound high flow catalytic converter to fully complete the exhaust setup.

oooooo i forgot about teh pistons... maybe ill upgrade the cylendars as well.. more displacement?

 

[TegSox]

Sure, you could go bigger bore if you like. And yes, having the cylinders honed is the right way to do a new piston install, to ensure proper piston to wall clearences and solid compression numbers.

Asking more specific questions will get you much more informative answers, we're pretty broad at the moment.

and dont bother with the short shifter. they dont do anything for you, at least not anything worth mentioning. listen to tegsox about the N/A stuff, he seems to know how to make power going that route.

 

[tcfridaydawg]

damn u guys know alot. at school everyone is like duhhhhhhhhhhhhh turbo? duhhhh o its that thing that makes the whistling sound right? I was alkin to one kid and he actually said "I want my car to be loud so eberyone can hear me coming. I'm gonna get dual exhausts for my neon because they give you more power!!!!" I wanted to slap the kid. bunch of friggin hobos. thats why i hate this town.

but yeah if i can think of any questions ill ask em.
o my buddy has a 86 or a 89 stang, idk if u guys no anything about them, but he doesnt have an exhaust and wants to know if its makin him lose power. I think he said it ends at his coverter.

I agree.

You'll also need a tuning system like Hondata, Uberdata, AEM EMS, ect... An Apexi V-AFC isn't gonna cut it if you upgrade the internals/raise compression. You'll probably need bigger fuel injectors, too. And an aftermarket clutch, because the stock clutch may not last too long at the power level these mods, properly tuned, will result in.

Dont forget a fuel pressure regulator.. also you can ditch the skunk2 rear sway bar, you can go Type R OEM.. cheap with similiar results.

 

[tcfridaydawg]

any of u guys live in PA?

 

[TegSox]

He won't need a fuel pressure regulator if he gets a real tuning system.
and yeah, the OEM Type R rear sway is the best bang for the buck rear sway you can buy, and it's 1 mm thicker than the Skunk2.

how big are the stock cylendars? i know 1.8L bu i don think that helps me figure out how big they are
and do u think ill need a camber kit?

 

[latindc2]

Im going to say this what your goal for your car? is this going to be a daily driver? what your budget? going NA is not an cheap task, who going to be doing the installation? this are some of the thing u can consider, and to answer your camber kit question, i been riding low 2.3" and no camber wear for 1 year now, when u drop your car get it aligned asap, they will determine if u need a camber kit or not.
