Nothing bad on Comptech, but I wouldn't use their catback exhaust on a Type R. It's the same size as the stock exhaust and didn't really do much anything for me on the dyno. It's a great quality piece for the other model Integras but a Type R IMHO needs something a little bigger.

Austin's car is definitely louder than mine, the test pipe vs cat makes a big difference. The HyTech system does not eliminate the cat.

I don't think it matters. The whole "less bends" thing is just marketing hype so angle it however you like it.

You should consider rather what your entire exhaust system is going to look like rather than focusing on one part. If you mix and match the wrong parts you'll get dissapointing results even if you have the best header in the world. Consider how much power you are planning to make and what size your ...

I do it by hand. Since my paint is already in good condition I use Meguiars #7 Show Car Glaze and #26 Hi-Tech Yellow Wax. If your paint is swirled up and needs help then using a cleaner beforehand is a good idea.

The markings on the Skunk2 cam gears are inaccurate, so I would say those aren't a good choice.

Autocrossing

I wanted to know if any SoCal'ers know of autocross sources other than solo2.com. They don't seem to have events as often and the practices fill up quick usually. I'm not looking to score points or anything I just want to do fun runs to get my driving skills down for now. Any other places to find ou...

Way back in the day when I was on SuperHonda. I think someone may have had a link in their signature or something. Either that or I found it through a search engine, I forget it was so long ago. I just remember I wanted to see pictures of Type R's because I wanted one so bad.

Registry suggestions

Great job on getting the registry up and running, now for the picky ass crap haha :lol: I liked how the old registry thumbnailed the photos to the side of the information and think it would be a nice thing to have again for aesthetics reasons. Also perhaps addition of email and homepage in registry ...

Yes 178 before the VAFC, FPR, and cam gears were touched. I'm hoping to make 200whp on the stock cams or if need be Toda A's. I think a Hondata is going to be in order as modification of the ignition timing throughout the powerband I think will help alot. A mild port job is another thing I'm conside...

http://images.team-integra.net/~team-int/images/dynos/surferx2.jpg Comptech Icebox (stock airhose) HyTech header-cat-exhaust system Tuning was done with cam gears, VAFC, and FPR. One thing I want to say is that Skunk2 cam gears suck for accuracy. Aries at Dynamic Autosports degreed them and found o...

You guys are too cool

I just want to give mad props to the guys rebuilding ITRCA. I remember when I had my Integra LS I used to come to this site all the time to look at R's and wish someday I could be a part of it. Then when I finally bought a Type R the first thing I did after coming home was turning on the computer an...
