New Intake Piping & Ecu Reset

I thought to rebuild my intake, because the old version of my intake system wasn't a real good solution.

My friend and me have been in a tuning shop and I found a Honda Civic intake and so I bought and modified it.

My old intake before exchange:

This is the new pipe: (notice that small iron thing next to the measuring instrument. I needed it to make the big hole for the temp meter)

Demounting of the old intake:

Had to mark the cuts and holes:

After cutting and drilling works:

Finished work:

I also reseted the ECU and it felt a bit slower after this progress.

But the power improved very quick, and I noticed that it accelerated smoother than before. :blush:

But I'm sure the responsing of the acceleration will change after a few hundred kms.

I also noticed that it got louder in the 5700-6200rpm area and pulled a bit better at high rpm, I saw that it pulled quicker to 220kph than it did before. :D

At low rpm seems acceleration kept same as before.

Well.... I'm pleased with it, because it's better work than it was.
