00 Ek Hatch To Itr Swap...

Going For The Full B18c5 Swap At The End Of Next Month! I Wanna Get Everything Ready Now So It Will Be Easy To Manage When I Put The Engine In. What Would You Recommend I Do For Exhaust In This Setup. I Don't Plan On Doing Turbo, Just A Na Setup For Now. I Was Thinking Apex-i Wsii And A High Flow Cat.

 

How about a RS*R Cat-Back Exhaust, ITR header, and a 2.5 High Flow Cat?

 

Sounds like a good exhaust setup. What header are you thinking?

 

Was just gonna use the ITR header that came with (CTR prolly would work better). I'm not sure, but i think that stuff doesn't all bolt up exactly right. Might have to make a custom flange into the cat on either the exhaust or header. Am I right?

 

I have a 97 ek with a jdm itr b18c. If you get a jdm header: I went with the T1R (type one racing) exhaust. It is 2.5" and allows room for a cat. If you get a standard dx/cx usdm exhaust it will be right at the header leaving no room for a cat. The t1r is designed for a ctr and leaves room for a cat. I had a carsound with custom extensions put in, but a jdm itr or ctr cat will work.

 

You can't use a B16 (CTR) header on a B18 block. The header isn't tall enough to wrap around the block.

 

Actually the header is identical to the 96 spec jdm itr header and does fit b18's. Holla back youngin woo woo!!!

 

:werd: the b16b has the same block height as a b18
