Fitted Spoon Rear top bar and Spoon bend on induction. Two relative straight forward jobs.
The cutting out the rear wheel well covers was trickiest bit due to slant of the well and making fitting the strut brace shoes need to be cut down to the level they go on, had to be a bl**dy good guess. Easy removed the top speaker cover/spoeakers to allow to socket on extension get down to tighten, speakers were ripped, thought they were goosed when I got the car. Used a 20mm hole saw drill and a keyhole saw (fine tooth) to cut them then filed and sandpapered the plastic edge smooth. Tightend one side shoe and bar RH side, tightend other allan nut on bar after locating nuts on shoes, then tightened them in place.
This car has had some sort of induction on it before in Japan by the looks of the box fittings. The front elbow only needed some 10mm nut bolts removed split the front intake box and rejoin together with rubber bend supplied for the kevlar pipe and use the rubber & washer (from bit removed on existing box) for spacing under the elbow bolt and tighten in place.
I would have taken some pictures but I was servicing a C5 so it was dark before I finished and test run them both.
The EK9 sounds a bit deeper in tone and a bit louder in vtec, the back end is feeling a bit stiffer and silenced a few noises from back end, starting ot handle like my old C2 VTS round the twisties.
Still to do new filter, await its supply.
Jobs still to do when I get cash, Spoon N1 Mid pipe, Brake 4 pots, new discs and pads, gearbox mounts bottom, Front and rear bottom braces and two 6x9 rear speakers as the ones existing are ripped as already mentioned.
