It definitely needs a map mate, I was pretty upset when I fit mine cos is sounded quieter and felt like it pulled a lot less than the stock mani with the htune custom basemap. The blox/skunk/dc2 style intake manis move your powerband higher up the rev range and you lose a chunk of torque because of it, but when you get it fully rolling road mapped they get most of the torque back so you essentially have the best of both worlds. Also mate when looking at the DC2 throttle bodies watch out because there are two types and one doesn't come with the top connector for the charcoal cannister connection, some say you can just block off the pipe but my idle was fooked because of it. Expand Cheers for info mate think I'll get it live mapped then, do you know what dc2 throttle body I would need mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 I completely removed charcoal canister. Won't affect idle if there's no vac leaks. Agreed map is the way forward. I had really good setup with cams aswell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Cheers bud now I don't know if I should just hold out and get dc2 cams and then get it mapped or just get it mapped and leave it at that. Will cams make it alot better?

KiNK43 Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Mine was around 195bhp with cams. Made a great difference compared to standard. Realistically on an accurate dyno. 185 is gonna be absolute max with standard cams and that will be on the limit. Someone will surely argue about that saying there cars 220bhp with standard cams. But whatever. If you put cams and dual valve springs on the exhaust side. Raise rev limit upto 9k safely. Happy days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JK1245 Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Gotta love when people 'run' 200+hp n/a on stock cams, like why did Honda not just put a C4 with an exhaust in the teg instead? Dogg depending on where you get it mapped they have a kind of deal where you'll pay, say £300, upfront and then every time you want the map tweaking you pay just for pure dyno time, which in Manchester is usually £90/h so it could just be worth getting it mapped as is now and then getting the cams/springs/retainers and then going back for round 2. To fit a DC2 throttle body mate all you'll need is an EK4 throttle cable and bracket, looking at about £35 all in from Japserviceparts. I'll try get a picture up later so you can see how it'll go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogg1210 Posted September 8, 2016 Author Share Posted September 8, 2016 Only place I know of up here is triple h and when I spoke to them before he said he didn't keep maps stored lol found my old aerodeck map and this just had a decat and 4-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I took the little spring part of a mb in scarpys think it's off a 1.6 and it runs the cable the opposite way and I took the cable too not sure if it'll fit but I'll try it this weekend and let you know man Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
