Thanks a lot :D

Not meaning to be rude but there is no B16B2, if it is an EK4 VTI then it will have a B16A2 which is still nothing compared to a B16B, but you are right the engine in the EK4, the B16A2 has 160hp compared to the B16A1 which has 150HP :)

This arrived today!! :D

ITR Shift Boot - Real leather with nice red stiching 8)

ITR shift boot - looks great, really smartens the interior up and matches the seats perfectly. Was not a direct fit though
as the ITR one is about 3.5cm longer than the EE9 one, I had to cut a few bits off the leather at the bottom and modify
it to fit my gaiter bracket.

Just got to get a Skunk2 Gear Knob now to set it off. 8)

The engines a bit cleaner now also!!

Which Honda dealer are you using?

Let me know what bits and pieces you need? Might be able to help you out with part numbers!

^^^^ After a lot of searching I managed to get part numbers for most of the parts I needed, but I could not
find part numbers for a B16B header Gasket and a 2.5 Inch Collector o-ring Gasket. I also need to find
where to get some MTF94!!!

^^^^ Thanks, Yeah no luck with Honda so I was going to try Land Rover on Friday. Just need to find out if you can
use it with a Quaife LSD first as I know that some LSDs dont like it.

Took the intake manifold off last night and left it soaking in water overnight to soften the old gasket.
Managed to get it all off tonight and put it back on with the Hondata Intake Manifold Heatsheild Gasket.
