    Source an RBC/RBB mani, adapter, and the PRB TB. Use the head you have. Weld up to the existing 'downpipe' and youre in business. Dont bother with taking the engine apart and spending money on shit you dont need to. 200whp and 170wtq will move the EP round just fine.

    RBC = 2006-2011 Civic Si K20Z3, RRB = 2004-2008 TSX, those two manifolds will bolt to the head you have. When compared to each other, the RBC will net you higher horsepower top end wise, while the RRB will net you more torque low and mid range wise.

    thanks, i need to write that down lol. i will probably end up with a rbc mani... mainly because its half the price of the rrb. im going to look around and see if i can find one for a good price. i found the tb adapter(probably should have looked before i asked).

    You can usually find an RBC/Karcepts TB adapter around $300 new.

    Thanx for mentioning the RRC Kevin... its a $400+ manifold though... so i dont usually think of it for a build like this.

    Oh... and the PRB TB is the stock TB found on any cable driven EP3/RSX/RSX-S. The ITR TB will bolt up as well... but lacks cruise control.

    And for the rrc at 400-425 for 10whp tuned on kpro soulds a little steep? Or am i wrong. I need a manifold regardless and it i look at it its only 200 more than the rbc... but then i look and were at 400 lol

    Yeah i was saying the RBC and adapter together are around 300 new.

    The RRC is the JDM version of the RBC. Its the new hotness. The RBC is fine for your uses. The RRC is for high revving/high flowing setups or just for the bling factor.

    I would spend the extra coin on a good tune with the RBC. You can pick up 10whp and 7wtq easily with a good tune.
