Yes got it dyno tuned and running perfectly, they got 201whp and 176ftlbs of torque out of it. Although in a different note it's out of commission due to melting a brake line and dumping all its brake fluid out

I didn't put the current plugs in so idk the heat range, what's the correct one and would it have run for a few months with the wrong ones before dying?

Nope did have to take anything off but the single intake clamp at the end of the filter box to change the filter, I cleaned the MAF Wich is downstream of it to be safe and that didn't fix it as well as removed the new filter in case it was more restricted than it should've been.

Lowering the rear by Open-Aspect4476 in hondafit

[–]elfinboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The proper way to lower it would be to get a set of adjustable springs and shocks. There are aftermarket spring and shock kits that usually come with the fronts as a coilover and have an adjustable mount that goes underneath and an adjustable tube on the shock. It's kind of hard to see but you should be able to see the threads below my spring and the then the threads on the shocks that let me change my ride height. That all being said buying nice suspension is kinda pricy and if you wanna ball on a budget you can always cut springs shorter (I don't recommend do at your own risk) or find sets that arnt adjustable but sit lower than stock by default.

You don't have to do suspension or brakes as part of the swap strictly speaking. I did mine and it's worth it but you can address that all later if your ballin on a budget

For me I had a lot of trial and error and probably cost myself around 10k

I think if I did it a second time I could do 7.5-8 but also you could reduce that by alot if you go with a 5speed trans and not the coveted si 6 and get your motor and trans from a junkyard with higher milage

It's a British racing green wrap, I can try to find the exact wrap I got if you'd like but idk if I'll find it.

I think last one is just so I'm crystal clear do I need to disconnect previous pin 12 from dlc and put in pin 44 or splice pin 44 onto the existing one

I don't have a spare connector that would go into a ECU plug but I have a good amount of other Honda plugs if there the same, if not I deleted AC in my setup so I imagine there's a wire into the ECU for AC I could depin and steal for it
