06 si vs 02-05 rsx intake manifold and throttle body..

[OneSi]

Well i currently have an 02 type s and tomororw i may have a 2006 si if everything goes smoothly. Well looking at the intake manifold on the Si it actaully looks smaller so does the throttle body. Now on the inside it could be the same or bigger bore im not sure. but the intake tube is for sure smaller. I wanna figure that all out because down the road i may see if a tpe r intagra intake manifold and throttle body or type s will bolt right up. because there would be some good power being lost right there but i dont know..any info on this yet?

yea man that would make some nice gain in hp. mayb when you get the car, you can take pics of both so we can compare them. gosh im so jealous of you! you have the best of both worlds!!

The Si has a cast aluminum intake manifold with a huge 70mm intake duct. It helps out in high rpm power and is mostly the reason the Si sounds so good from the factory. Swapping the intake manifold need not apply. Just go with a Hondata K-series intake manifold gasket to stop heatsoat and your good to go.

Also, how did you look at the intake manifold let alone the throttle body??

I have both cars in my garage as many of you guys know. First of all the itr intake manifold and throttle body are not going to just bolt on. Besides that the si has a electronic throttle body. The itr and type s does not. You maybe be able to make this work but not with out swapping out the entire drive by wire system not to mention the manifold. Its not logical or worth the cost.

Not to mention the new Si has the RBC intake manifold from the Euro Accord R which a lot of type-s owners swap into their car. The RBC IM is a beast from the 2.4l k24. As for the drive by wire throttle body, im sure there will be an aftermarket solution in the future. I heard Hondata is already working on it.

aww i forgot about the throttle body! yea i did some research and found the other day that the intake manifold stock is better anyway ..
