[Alex EX]

Plus its made from pure stainless steel and has a lifetime manufacturers defect warranty, unlike the ceramic DC which I heard cracks.

As long as the welds are good, it would be kinda hard to screw up an intake mainfold. But at the same time, I wonder how much R and D was involved with it. Velocity and such can make a huge difference in an intake manifold. Plus, that thing looks hella long, im not sure that would clear the firewall.

thats a replica of the Venom intake manifold. i've seen the OBX IM up front, and i have to admit, it looked pretty good.

Im getting me a header, 160 shipped, stainless steel, warranty, all gaskets, flanges. Very good deal IMO.

I'm glad I started this thread!

It's gonna be funny... the CB7 crowd will be the first to bring respect to OBX. Maybe.

Hell, if I can get cams and an LSD from them, I can spend less than $1000 on cams, LSD, clutch, and flywheel

[Dutchaccord]

i'd get a LSD if available

i saw pic of there sema booth and they are making lsd for the f and h series. they had like a sheet next to the lsd and it had all the applications for it. deeever i showed you thread about the guy with the 600 hp civic that was using it and it was holding up fine. ive hurd the manifold do crack but i seen they came out with a new manifold so i dont kow about that one. i havent hurd aything on the cams yet but ill keep an eye out for info

[Alex EX]

are their catbacks any good?

[accordfreak]

the only thing to worry about the cams is that they are made of cast , watsup with that? well it can cause wear in the rocker arms, anyway i bought a pair of stage1's so wish me luck

they cost $370 including s/h to PR via USPS

in a thread in H-T a guy with a lude had them installed a month or so ago and he claimed to rev the hell out of em, he feel the car a lot better with good mid-range and everything is cool !!!!! this guy was the one that convince me I'm waiting for the pressure plate to finally balance my internals then build my engine and start it at last!!!

about the LSD its the same as Quaiffe but with other material , i havent see one for accs or ludes but if u r going n/a it suppose to handle it extremely well as i see

[deevergote]

kaoticaccord,
We could really use your input! As an authorized dealer, you have the inside scoop on stuff that we don't know about.

If there is an OBX LSD made for the H/F series trannies, I'd buy it. Hell, something similar to a quaife for a little more than a Phantom Grip? Boo ya! I'll upgrade to a quaife eventually, but I don't have the money now. I need a new clutch (and a lightened flywheel will come with that). I have to save money where I can! If I can get decent stuff that will last at least a little while, I'd rather do it for less. I can always sell the OBX off when I upgrade, if it lasts...

in someones previous post they posted how the cams were cast.....correct. the same method Skunk2 USED to use. problem is, they break easier than newer technology cams. basically, OBX is using a method that a good company used to use until the company found out that they were no good. and, i dont know about many of you but, i'd rather spend the extra money, to get cams that are better quality and from a company that has actually tested the parts. just my opinion!!

[deevergote]

Very true... Cast cams aren't all that great. They are probably as good as a regrind, which isn't terrible... Still, billet cams are much better. Do we have confirmation on the cams being cast though? I don't doubt that they are, but I'd like to know for sure before deeming them crap.
