OBX Intake Manifold

[minoreparations]

just a rule of thumb: whenever you're on ebay and see R stay away!!!!

[Law Grandeur]

looks like it would be a perfect candidate for hacking up to fab some ITBs onto just hack off the can and you almost half way there lol

LOL not a bad idea!

qwow thank god for this thread. i was going to buy the obx h23 intake manifold to bolt up to my f22a1.

kind of mad to see that it doesn't fit. i guess stock h23 manfiold it is.

^Well, any IM for an H23 would fit your F, but the OBX IM would be overkill and does not bolt in like stock. Go w/ a modified stock IM, plenty of options!

Or u could.. Get that manifold.. Have the plenum cut off.. And cut the runners down about an 1inch and then have clearance from the firewall.. A lot of ppl seem to feel that having to fabricate something is a drag.. Which it IS understandable when u paid good money for the product.. But I like creating shit and fabbing heck I help boost a cb7tuner members car who bought a ebay kit.. The entire kit. Bov had 2 be opened and diaphram sealed with silicon.. Wastegate spring was too high so we had to shorten it and reshape it.. The downpipe flange that was included had 2 be drilled out because the bolt holes didn't line up... the piping obviously had 2 be custom.. The oil feed and return had 2 be modified.. The only things that didn't give us headache was the turbo timer and oil catch can. Haha.. But 2 me that's the fun of it.. Just my .02 if I had spare cash.. Id chop that bish up and make it work... even if it is overkill.. Im still positive it will add power somewere in the powerband.. Makes for cool bling factor 2.. So fuck it..

amen to that. if i had the time and money and i wanted it i would do it. but like someone said before it would be a great start to some ITBs for the f series

[accord2nr81]

i bought an oil pan for my h22 a few years ago, not 1 hole lined up, ill never buy one of their products again

i got there oilpan and all the holes lined up for me i also bought there radiator hoses
that IM looks cheap and shitty though.. IMO if you want an aftermarket IM go with a skunk2
but if your runnin the f22 i would seggest the a6 lower runners and h23 upper plentem swap with extra spacer with gutted butterflys

those manifolds will crack under boost. seen it first hand.
you can block off the vaccum ports going to the fast idle valve under the throttle body with a peice of plastic from a package,you know, those stupid packages you gotta get a boxcutter out to open.then you dont need the coolant there either.
keep the iac and its coolant.
ive got a stock H manifold, makes over 500whp not worth replacing at this point

[kamaccord]

whats your opinion guys on it?

I think it may be a waste of money. I would recommend the Euro R intake manifold if this for an H22.

X2 its a waste of money.

[gloryaccordy]

Rosko Racing has a full Euro R manifold kit with the manifold and all the adapters you need to make it work for $500... better bet IMO

well i wanted a intake mani for a f22. i would of rewelded it, and cut the runners a bit shorter. plus is IM is made for the h23 preludes. and if we could run their IM in our cars im sure this one would fit.

[gfrg88]

has anyone ever even dynoed one of these??? im sure it would make some power up top..

i would get it for itbs

[WiKKeDV16]

i talked to someone on H-T who used an obx manifold on his h22a turbo bb6.. yeah he had to do some work to get it all to work.. but it worked.. and hasnt cracked.. imma take a stab at it..
(waiting to purchase the one thats in the classifieds)

lets see what happens.. worst case scenario.. plenum gets chopped and ill resell with some cbr itbs
