New RBC Intake Manifold

sniperscout · 07-27-2008

Last night at an 8th gen civic meet I picked myself up an RBC intake mani....the price...he asked for $30. I felt a little guilty, so I gave him $60. I am hoping that I can get in the 240-250hp and 200tq range with this thing.

You don't want that piece of junk.....Ill take it off your hands for $75

I did hear that the best gains were matching the RBC with cams though, but that was with the k20a2.....not sure about the k20/24 frank you're running. If you come across any others that cheap....damn, let me know man!!

Also, let me know how fitment is, and how the CAI fits with the RBC on our chasis....I am thinking of doing this soon as well. Hopefully, with the RH and KPro it will help and not hurt......but I may have to wait until cams.

240-250hp? that'll be cams and pistons along with that rbc.

i think i will be able to hit 240 without doing cams. a k20a2 with bolt ons, kpro, and rbc gets 230hp. I understand that I am being optimistic but I dont think it is out of the question

I think 240 is generous, and 230 for the k20a2 with those listed mods is generous. Regardless its a good mod, and worth the dough.

thats just a k20a2 right? I am at 212/178 with I/RH/Exhaust/PRB IM/Hondata IMG/TB Spacer/TB Thermal gasket/KPro tuned with a tsx bottom end

Maybe 250 is really hopeful but I dont think 240 is at all

He knew there were plenty of guys at the meet saying what it was worth. He had just put on a SC and didnt want it laying around his apartment so he didnt care.
