spoon manifold issue
Posted: Fri Feb 15, 2008 11:44 am
Hi there!
I have a Euro spec Ep3 with complete spoon exhaust (2 piece header, B pipe, N1) , spoon TB, Injen CAI and K-pro. The problem is at mid range. 20-40 HP difference comparing it to other setups at these rpms (5-6,5). Above these rpms seems to work ok.
V-tec is at 5250.
Also torque curve is strange for a K20 engine. Peak torque comes at 7000rpm and not when v-tec hits as usual.
Does it need a different aproach to work fine? (ie cams angle)
Has anyone faced a similar problem with this manifold?? If so what did you do to solve it?
Thanks
