Someone on this board did this comparison... Too bad I have to find the pics on clubrsx

 

[jon v]

So which is which? and what was the outcome of the comparison? I am sure they did not just compare them on the floor, visually?

Where are the numbers?

 

[nikos]

NO dyno yet... Just got them last night.

Ron (edo) said that hondata's Derek got 17whp more... I am not sure on which cams etc...

You can see which one is bigger, that is the RBC.

 

[PapiTuyo326]

im pretty sure the euro r is the one on the right side of the second picture

 

[fearless_dsm]

Euro is on the left side of the 2nd pic.It has the curve in the manifold where the throttle body mounts.

I was gettin around to it Nikos!

 

[nikos]

Come on now... You know that was an indirect joke. At least you are documenting your built here

you better let me drive your car soon.. Pizza mark is going down.

BTW, this was my RnD manifold. i already choped off the coolant passage that was originally on the pass. side. and machined it smooth. I now leave it in marks hands, as i am short on time lately. It was going to be fitted on my NA DC5 with IPS cams

 

[H2nr]

so the hole for the MAP is in the same placew as the TSX mani I just took off, nice. We are trying to see if any of the V6 TBs will fit. If so I will post our findings.

 

[GT MOTORING]

yea, i just dont have the time to machine up a mounting adapter to allow the RSX TB to mount up right now. i know Joe at prototype had made a one off, he was going to make me one as well, but he has been extremly busy on his lotus k20 projects.

 

[H2nr]

so far it looks like the Eliment TB may work too.

if it does, let me know, so i can maybe get back to working on fitting one of these on a DC5. right now im experimenting with the plenum extensions in different volume sizes. im hoping i can offer a carbon or fiberglass version for like 75$ or so. may be a cheap and easy solution for some, IF it yeilds results

 

[H2nr]

will do, by the way Wrex I emailed and PMed you about one of these manis.

 

[jon v]

So the manifold is a direct bolt on for the TSX block right? no machining neccesary?

 

[H2nr]

OK I got my hands on an 02 CRV TB and it is a perfect fit for the TXS mani so if the RBC uses the same style TB as the TSX we are in. Oh and the CRV TB is the same size as the TSX.

 

[Junior_r]

Does anyone know the part number of the Euro R intake manifold ?

We test fit the CRV TB on the RBC manifold and it does not work, the bolt pattern is completely different. Additionally, the CRV TB is only 60mm.

looks like the RBC manifold is going to own for powerband/torque gains... are those tapered runners? also, does it have a bolt-on plate underneath like the K20A2 manifold, so an expansion chamber can be added, like what rcrew racing did?

also, ive got an Accord manifold, i wonder how it would compare?... the runners are even LONGER then that one, the manifold is actually two pieces (if i remmeber correctly)

ok, well that sucks about the CRV TB. so much for that easy fix. there is no bolt on chamber plate, this is a sealed unit.

 

[civic dx]

will this mani sit up higher? it looks like it comes more straight off the motor. might not clear the hood of a 92-95 civic
