If a set of itbs clear the RSX stock hood, will they work for K20a EGs? EKs? DC2?

Can anyone compare their clearance with a RSX or vice versa?

I think it will depend on the mount kit. Easiest way would be to measure the hood to Rocker cover clearance on both motors. But the slope of the bonnet might also come into effect on the cars..

I'm curious to know this aswell. I mean there mst be people some people on this site that has sone it.

ok, for sure with any mount kit, for an eg or ek, the TWM throttle bodies will hit the hood for sure. its not the motor that will hit, but the fuel rail will hit the hood. You can get away with using spacers on the hood latches....the fuel rail barely hits the hood

The LHP "street" style clears without any hood modifications in an EK.

stock mounts in a rsx the itbs will clear the hood with enjo mounts the clear the hood with a lil more space then with stock mounts.

I assume you are talking about the TWM's specifically?

 

[chad_everson]

yes, sorry should have said that.. the twms fit with stock mounts on rsx

i think there was a blue ek with twm and carbon fiber tip for the itb(sorry dont know the name)

i think it had to be shortened to fit the civic with no hood modification

the hayward performance itbs fit perfict under the eg hood too. just like the ek. i think there is like 2mm's from the air horns to the hood it self.
