dc5 parts

[hothatch03si]

i was thinkin about puttin on a dc5 intake manifold im pretty sure it will bolt right on, has anyone done this and if so haveu felt a differnce and wut do u guys think about puttin dc5 parts on our cars like cams and stuff ( rsx type r )i think it will fit on our ep;s the motors are basically the same

We already have the same intake manifold as the RSX Type-S, so putting a K20A manifold on a K20A3 would give very small gains (I would think). You're better off just buying either a SRI or CAI.

No point. Even the TB is the same size. Search and you'll find the answers.

The type R intake mani. only gives hp gains above 8000rpm, with a slight loss of midrange tq. Therefore not exactly a practical mod for the A3.

Cams will require swaping the head assenbly.
