ENG:Blacktrax IMS

you remover the butterfly from one of the plates befroe you put it on.

most of the power comes from the added volume and velocity.

if you have $60.00 to spend on the blacktrax, then it would be a better choice. but if you already have the parts laying around, then my way is a super cheap way to go.

which is much better than an intake...stock intake ftw

How do you get that little cover/cap off the iab plate so I can remove the butterfly assembly rod?

Pull it off with pliers

[cloudasc]

Thanks, I just wanted to make sure there weren't any little tricks, just the grip of death required with a pair of pliers!

more like just use a hammer and tap the cap on one side and it'll loosen.

i saw green cb7 made 5hp & 5tq with the Blacktrax spacer on his car. well it got me to think'n why can't i just use an extra IAB i have. the butterflys were already removed and the ends JB welded. so i put it on and of corse the studs & bolts were to short. so i hit up different auto shops and couldn't find bolts long enuf. so i put the idea on the back burner.

well i go out side today so i could start on my ABS removeal. and i tripped on a bolt. i look down and it's three of my AC compresser bolts. i pick it up & run in the house to try it out. there the right thread pitch & they'er long enuf.



update....only 3 of the AC bolts will work. the two spots that have studs are longer than the bolts. to replace them you need
two 8 x 1.25 100mm bolts

hope this helps too

you can ca get it at ACE hardware.

i used all 8x1.25 x100
Honda lists the bolt as 8x108 though, but I used 8x1.25 100mm.

Pain in the ass to find at home depot, and lowest but ace had them
