seem to of gained a bit of midrange and revs ,uch more smoothley, this in combination with my spoon flywheel i fitted last week has made an awesome difference to teh midrange drivability of teh car, vtec step is not so pronounced so must be makingmore power before she switches over,, need to get dyno`ed sometime soon, :nice:

problem with SMSP and other tri Y headers is you need to remove the type R block brace, :((

SMSP does not make a B16B header, last time i contacted him he said to buy a Toda as it was the best!

correct.

Nope!
I believe it's only for the '96 Spec ITR's.

they all use the same block and brace. there are some variations, i heard some of the newer versions clear the brace... who knows.


anyhow lets not all forget longtube headers such as RFM/SMSP/Hytech do not benefit short stroke engines like the b16b, now if you stroke it out to a 1.8 or 2.0 thats another story, but in stock stroke configuration nothing is better than TODA!
 
Do you really need to heat proof the sump? What are the benifits?

just to help stop the radiant heat from the manifold heating the sump oil especially when the car is standing,

the standard downpipe is twinwall so effectively has its own heatsheild,

spoon heatproof the sump in this way so thought why not :nice::nice::nice:

Nice bit of kit ! Simply the best, good idea to heatproof the sump. Love the welding on the toda mani looks the don. Is there a noticable difference in the exhuast note ?
 
I guess I'll add that to my list of to do's

OR I could just heat wrap my Mugen manifold aye? Just as effective.
 
looking good, i think i may borrow your idea on the sump, what did you use to stick it, normal alu tape?

got some heat matting, cut it to shape, alu taped teh edges so it wouldnt fray, then put some RTV silicone on the back, stuck it to the sump with alu tape around the edges :nice: :nice:

exhaust note is slightly deeper throughout the rev range and sounds more JDM if you know what i mean, :nice: :nice:
