Damn Rob this is freaking tight. I was seriously telling my buddy last night I hope someone does this (what your doing).

See if you can get your hands on the new Takeda AFE intake. Takeda claimed that they have seen 19hp gains.

I ran individual throttle bodies on my civic for a while before going FI. With a high compression & high reving setup it made really decent NA power.

As for the project, Rob I've got a BLOX intake plenum spacer that I'll let you borrow for testing purposes if that'll help any.

what size is it ninja1? I didn't figure there would be a big difference in plenum spacers since all it is, is a piece of material that raises the top from the bottom to create more volume.

but if the people want to see what different size spacers do then thats fine.

Unless you get free dyno runs, that is going to be a costly experiment.

Good idea though.

^I've seen a pic somewhere that showed two boxes covering the ITB's, one on each side which were fed by two pipes going to the front of the car. Similiar to the HR's intakes. The filters were in there somewhere.
