Skunk2 Intake Manifold & Throttle Body + Race Dash Test! - Civic EG Track Car Build

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Hey, Friends! It's been a while, but I'm all settled into the new shop now! I'm finally back in the groove and wrenching on the Civic. Version 2 of the build has begun and we start it off with installing a Skunk2 Pro-series intake manifold and 70mm Alpha-series throttle body! I run into some issues calibrating the TPS, but my Poorman's race dash comes in to save the day!

    I feel your pain on the wiring harness. I've been thinking of doing the budget RyWire kit my self, but think that's a project for another day since I just spent $200 on a OEM D series Vtec harness to get the car on the road. I now have 3 wiring harnesses for the car. USDM CX harness, JDM B16 harness, and now a USDM D16Z6 harness. Maybe if I can sell off some of my spares I can justify it. Oh and I ran that same setup on my B20B swap in a EK. Throttle response on the low end leaves a lot to be desired. But the mid range pickup and top end is greatly improved. I don't imagine you'll be below 3K RPMS much in that car so it shouldn't really effect you much. The top end gains will be worth it in your application.

    It sounds like you don’t necessarily need the harness quite yet, so it makes sense to not have to buy more harnesses. The throttle response down low is definitely on my mind, but like you said, this thin should be spending most of its time well above that.

    Hey man, very informative vid. I came across a similar tps reading on my sons b20 vtec with skunk 2 IM and aftermarket TB. After trying to adjust the Tps for a good while, i pulled the tb off, removed the tps and compared the slot location that the tps sits in. I had to loosen the screw that holds the tps plate and adjust to same level/setting as stock unit, tighten that screw and reinstalled everything back. That fixed the 1volt minimum and 5volt max I was getting back to .5 to 4.5 volt W.O.T. Maybe this can help someone else having a similar problem.

    Great channel subscribed from the start. Good no-nonsense content and perfectly applicable for my own b18 swap eg trackhack that I've started building in December. Videos on harness install, rollcenter adjusters and small things like detent springs really make a difference. What is your take on power steering? Im not sure on a delete or keeping it, can you help me decide? Cant wait for more content keep it up!!

    Keep power steering if you’d like! I don’t think there’s a wrong or right answer here. If you track the car regularly and you’ve got a wiiiiide front setup, I’m sure power steering would be really nice. I don’t think it robs enough horsepower to consider removing it.

    You know you don't need the car on to calibrate the TPS? You just have to hook two of the wires Red and the middle on to a multi meter and set it to ohms. You can use the stock on and get the reading from that and set the new to the same setting. This way you don't have to cut/spice in to the wires.

    What made you decide to go with the Alpha Throttle Body (70mm) over the Pro series and what intake did you use? I heard you have to use an ITR short ram or cold air intake (AEM) Since the GSR will not work anymore. Is this true? If not, does the GSR AEM intake (short ram or cold air) still work? Thanks!

  • @bvspeed

    Purely cost! With this being a track car, the billet pro-series was simply just for bling points and that’s why I went with the Alpha. Yes, you’re correct about the intake. The stock GSR intake manifold sits really low so of course the intake is designed specifically for that. The new S2 intake manifold places the throttle body at a much higher location which requires you to have to modify your current intake or get a new one.
