OBX Manifold question help

Post by 907itr »

OBX Sport Racing Item# 121-1001-(1) 97-01 Integra Type-R

OBX Sport Racing Item #121-1602-(1) or (3) 99-00 Civic

Have anyone used this brand intake manifold before?

I thought B16A and B18C5 intake manifold are the exact same fitting. If its the same fitting, how come the Part # are different.

I installed the B16A intake manifold in my type r and now its burning white smoke.
The shop guy told me its due to my bad valves and i need my engine rebuild. Is this true?
Is it because i used the wrong intake manifold? They also bought a new OEM Honda Gasket for the intake manifold but the problem is still there, white smoke from the exhaust.

White smoke = coolant.

Does it have a sweet smell to it?

Sounds like one of the coolant lines near the IM/TB is going into the mani and thus your burning it off. maybe...

As for those IM's... I'd pick stock over either of them.
