Re: ARC pimpin...
It would look a lot better IMO if you put the battery in the trunk and put the ARC box there. It does look really out of place where it's currently sitting.

Re: ARC pimpin...
Wow thats like the cleanest part of your hole engine bay... even at that its not that clean :LOL: Not to mention the injine piece thats in there LMAO
Re: ARC pimpin...
dam korn I did the same thing but I removed the battery and put a EG6 ARC introduction box so it fits the right there were the battery was is a good investment, made custom pipes to make it work also you should do the same so it look like it belongs there.....

A small ARC welding unit that fits in the engine bay, runs off the battery, and allows you to turn your Civic into a mobile welding platform.
Re: ARC pimpin...
from what i understand it just replaces the factory air box, and supposidly gives gains in power, due to running cleaner/cooler air?... correct me if im wrong.
but why would you go with an arc box vs a CAI?

Re: ARC pimpin...
most likely because CAI runs the risk of hydrolock, I'd say it's more of a substitute to a SRI if anything.
One of my buddies put a straight cone in the place of his stock intake box, he's driving a Neon, go figure.

Re: ARC pimpin...
because ARC doesnt make parts for the d17, and its BALLIN...couldve been rigged better but its cool. i dont think you did it for any hp gains right OP? cuz you know how our little motors act..

Re: ARC pimpin...
alright man.... clean engine... i like ARC... but clean engine.. some simplegreen and battery relocate is a must! and fuse box maybe too!? itll look bangin all right there! but the oem intake from where the air comes in from the lower body could somehow flow into to it also!
