    Help with my shopping list for the engine

    Well with only exhaust system you can't expect big gains. The stock exhaust manifold is killing all the performarmance but now with the 4-2-1 you should see gains. Increasing hp is hard and 14hp is a big figure.

    Also I would change that filter for CAI. It's heatsoaking badly if that's still your setup.

    cant find it

    The important thing is how the header is designed and made so 4-1 for top end is stories I don't belive :D Also isn't 1.4 stock with 4-1 exhaust manifold ? Finding one that really is difficult. That's 4-1 but you won't like the price :lol:http://bisimoto.com/store/index.php?mai ... 1bden08fn5

    btw I'm sure this thing will be better than any 4-2-1 not just at the top end but in every rpm :)

    This is a list with brands that made 4-1 for D seires you might find it helpfull: http://mycomputerninja.com/~jon/hondain ... index.html

    mini me info

    Due to my bad english it will be difficult to explain but you can insert the D16y8 camshaft D16y8 "bridge". It's better than just changing the head :idea: If you just swap the head you will lower the compression and the effect will be lower. I'm really interested to see the result of the mini-me please share some results after the build is ready.

    You can change the intake manifold for a D16Z6/D16Y8 because yours is plastic (if the internet pictures are correct), I'm not sure there will be gains but there should be at least small one.

    Next on the list Cold air intake.

    If you want bigger TB you need to port the intake manifold to match the new 60mm TB (you need one from B series) and port the holes that lead to the head (stupid explanation :oops: ). But if you just add bigger TB without porting the manifold it will be bad for performance.

    Next transmission with shorter gears/final drive (I don't have single idea what's your transmission, no information on the internet). You should aim for 4,4 final drive and gears from CRX or the easiest option gearbox from D16Y8.

    Next 4-2-1 header it should say that is for D series.

    And finally mini-me which means adding vtec but this is expensive and you need chipable CPU, adjustable cam gear and D16Y8/Z6 head.

    If I was in your shoes I would consider swaping the engine, it's just a 1.4 :roll:

    oil usage

    Would oil quality contribute? Fired in some crap we use at work, cant remember name but its stil 10-40. Isnt great stuff tho cost me 10 quid for 5 litres lol :D

    Good question :? i always put the good stuff in,, so can't answer that one, :(

    My first oil was Esso 10W40 which is a cheap brand. At ~5k I had to pour from min to max and then at ~8k again from min to max.

    Then I used Castrol Magnatec 10W40 and for 1 year and 2 months I didn't have to fill any oil. Before the change it was a little less then the middle. So it matters what oil you use.

    Now I am with Magnatec again with Hamp filter and I don't think I will be using different oil.

    ECU Reset Question

    not realy a performance booster more of a de~tox :lol::)

    Oh I wish that your mojo (can I use that word I like how it sounds :D) stuff worked on me too. I first changed the fuel filter and was excited that will feel a increase in power. Got in the car nothing, then adjusted the valve clearence - again nothing. Changed spark plugs and air filter - nothing.

    Well previous owner whereever you are I hate you for leaving me with that perfectly serviced car :mrgreen::lol:

    Hi,

    Thank you very much. Code that comes up is 41.

    Primary Oxygen Sensor - Heater circuit malfunction

    Does that mean lambda sensor is shot! And its only a few months old. Grrrr

    Let me share my story. After installing my 4-2-1 header I got a CEL. Ran a check and don't remember the number but it was oxygen sensor. Seemed realistic because the sensor has to deal with way more air. Drove with the cel for a month it was popping on every trip. I was ready to purchase a new one but I went to the Honda service to change the antifreeze. They did that and drove the car outside but after a while they returned the car to the service (I think he saw the CEL). After 5 minutes the car was ready they didn't tell me anything about the CEL and I forgot to ask. After thaat several months have passed I have no CEL and I even think my MPG increased. I don't know what they did but I'm sure I didn't recieved a free new oxygen sensor :D So my point is that this CELs are not very good for diagnostic :?
