looks pretty good... the monster tach is really unecessary for your application. It also looks out of place with the two empty gauge holes. If you were to say... fill the gaps with a boost gauge and oil pressure gauge, that'd be nice... just don't forget to buy the turbo/IC too

Yeah, i hear ya, but ive noticed that when i floor the car, the stock tack is wwwwaaaayyyy off and the new one stays accurate. I plan to eventually fill the empty holes with a boost gauge and an oil pressure gauge - when i turbo the car lol. ** i do think the empty holes look ghetto, but that was the best way to mount the tach. |

I am lovin it - very much. Ok, hear is the deal with the ractive filter - i know ractive is a straight up ricer company, but after the experience i have had with crappy air filters falling apart on my (while driving) i chose to get the ractive filter because it has screws that hold the filter together (in addition to glue). I am not worried about this filter falling apart on me at all, and BTW - all air filters are good for the same 2 horsepower gain. I know the tach looks ricey, but i am glad i got it since my stock tach is way off with the new motor - especially once i hit VTEC, the stock tach is way way off while the autometer is accurate all the way. |

Nice, but you're missing something. Where's the boost at?
I don't care for the tachs like that, but at least yours has function. Even the stock Si tach is a little off.

nice swap man...I'm thinking about doing a engine swap into my 91 integra GS...but i dont know much about motors and trannies...how much did you pay for ur JDM B16A SiR-II motor? did you order it online? whats an lsd transmission? about the tach, you have it there cuz it actually has a purpose in ur car unlike some people who just put them so people can think their car goes fast...

Limited Slip Differential. Helps with traction. http://auto.howstuffworks.com/differential.htm

Most Civics and other honda's have an open slip differential, which is why when you peel out only one wheel spins. With a limited slip differential, the front wheels lock together and will spin at the same time. It helps a lot when powering out of corners and launching off the line. As for your integra, a First Gen (SiR-I) B16A w/cable tranny should fit right in. |

Im not feelin my intake either (its ugly), but intakes are all the same, all that matters is that the air enters the motor through a unrestrictive filter and a nice big pipe. |
