Grant Posted February 27, 2011 Author Share Posted February 27, 2011 Love the S2 inlet maifold, makes the world of difference on the B16 engine...Hear mixed reports about it on a B18 though, what did you think....? Well i drove the mb6 back from london, about 90 miles, with everything standard and it felt like it had loads of torque and a nice power band..I then took everything out and put it in the EK and it seems to have lost alot of that.. Its now very much high end.. Infact when i first took it out, with shitty road tyres and now coilies just to make sure everything was ok i was spinning in 1st and 2nd when vtec was kicking in!! Not now with the coilies and toyos but it very much lacks power before vtec...The outlet is a ebay special from the states.. Unbranded as far as i new but one of the only ones with a 2.5" pick up unless i wanted to pay 600-700 i only payed 200 if i remember correctly..Also no pictures yet but ive just finished painting my bay in hammerite hammered black and just painted the block, alt, dizzy and solenoid silver.. Think it might look nice when im down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
