Yeah I smell a video soon as well. The Header really unleashed the top end dramatically, from 4000 all the way to 8600 pulls like hell!

The one thing that is missing in the "stock-ness" of the car is the O2 sensor. Just a little cut and snip and extend and solder and I'll be there.

As for tunning, that is something I get to play with for a bit!

Yes it's installed, and it feels AMAZING!!!! The restriction was terrible with that Home Brew Header! I'm happy it's gone!

I am now running a Hondata K20A2 tuned calibration on the K-Pro. Vtec engages at 4300 RPMS instead of 5600, and the red line is 8600 Rpms! Man the car pulls HARD!

Next step is to actually get it dyno-tuned, but for now it's plenty fast, and a lot faster than your average RSX type-S! So it was defintely well worth it!

I think that the JRSC Race 10 psi kit with BOlt ons (I/H/E), upgraded injectors, powerFC stand alone, and a GOOD dyno tunning. And you can hang!
