8th Generation Honda Civic Forum - View Single Post - DIY--DCRH Install

Silversweet09 · 09-02-2009, 08:44 PM

So from reading half of this thread, it's mostly directed towards installing the DCRH (obviously, lol). I am not the most mechanically inclined person, but do have access to a shop with air tools, lift, etc.

I am ordering Vibrant RH (catless) with the Vibrant Gen 2 exhaust along with FlashPro. I have no concerns with the exhaust, but here's what I would like to confirm:

1) Do I need to lower the sub-frame at all to get the Vibrant in?
2) Given that I will have FlashPro at the time of install, can't I disable the secondary O2 sensor?
2) If #2 is yes, then do I even need a defouler, or can I just put the secondary 02 in the rear bung and disable it and be all set?

Also, can someone summarize some tips for me?

Thanks in advance for your help.
