mods for an ls after I/H/E?

[blacknightteg]

ah yeah, i dun wana do that.

 

[1caintegra]

stay stock if ur worried about emissions.

 

[blacknightteg]

haha funny, no im not staying stock but at the same time i dont wana have to think about putting back on close to stock parts to pass emissions.

 

[1caintegra]

a cat install super easy it 5bolts a test pipe will smell alittle

my opinion... save money. buy another motor. build it on the side for boost... it seems you feel uncomfortable boosting on such a high mileage car and i'd feel the same way. if i was you i'd buy a gsr or something and swap it in.

 

[CortezBanks]

they stick a sensor in your tailpipe to read the emissions. I have a random technologies cat and they just plugged me in and passed without a sniffer or anything, but that may be just because I love in Oregon.

 

[Ghettokracker71]

^hahaha,...nice.

EDIT: What are you future plans for the car? Before investing wayyy too much into a motor you feel has limited life, why not start saving up for a swap? If you want to try to ride it out with the engine you have now, hows the maintenence on it? Timing belt, water pump, plugs/wires/dizzy cap/rotor button?

Are you only spending money on the motor? Have you done any suspension mods or maintenence?

While not glorious, maintence can certainly keep your shit on the road longer

(sorry I cant spell for shit)

if it was me, i would get a clutch/flywheel combo. Then who knows possibly a lightweight crank pulley and make that b*tch rev real nice:thumbs up

 

[SOLOITR2001]

if it have alot of miles on it then just swap it out and get a jdm b18c5 motor

 

[blacknightteg]

lol im not gunna spend 4500 on a type R swap, i dont want to spend that much money on a swap. besides, if i wana have a newer engine thats good for modification, then i would rather go with a gsr then type R.

 

[Tegman]

how about tuning your ecu

 

[ltrain]

well if u dont want to slap a vtec head or go boost then ......

get a heat soak shield for the intake manifold and throttle body or mabye upgrade the throttle body to 62mm (itr spec)u could also get a skunk2 composite fuel rail, (they do nothing for hp but.. they claim it lowers fuel temp alot.

people will say the heat soak shields are a waste but i disagree and besides if they were then y would a reputable company like hondata make em?

 

[tilegend]

how bout some cams? 403s maybe.?

 

[sOuL]

i have a maganaflow hi flow cat with a full Apexi N1 catback exaust system

 

[DA_Integra]

b16 tranny and clutch/flywheel combo! That's all I did to my ls and you'll be suprised how hard it pulls.
