KiNK43 Posted March 11, 2014 Author Share Posted March 11, 2014 Busy old day. What a pig of a job. Thought it would be easier. Mainly held up by 2.5 hrs of scraping the old gasket off.Still not up and running though I need some coolant and pcv hose. Need to extend all the wiring as it don't reach annoying!! And set up the tps. Not 100 percent how to route some of the vac lines. Think I'm gonna take the evap system off. Tidy things up a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vtec2011 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 On D-series engines, the inlet manifolds are a piece of pi$$ to do but looking at your engine bay it doesn't look as simple being a B-series Atleast the new manifold is on there now, looks a lot better and goes well in the bay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted March 11, 2014 Author Share Posted March 11, 2014 Well it wasn't that bad but just awkward like the bolts into that black bracket. And getting the old gasket off flipping ek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krzys Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Like it! Hope it gives you the extra oomph you're after with the new map! I can imagine it was as big a pain as you say! I'd expect nothing less really! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grant Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Looks good mate. Remember putting the skunk2 on the EK, was a nightmare with all the vac lines etc. You'll get there though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember putting the skunk2 on the EK, was a nightmare with all the vac lines etc. You'll get there though Vac lines are no more. That solved that problem removed the evap system. Did you have to extend the loom grant???Mine doesn't want to play ball as it is. Only IAT reaches.. just! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
