You'll also need to change the downpipe. It's a diff length between the LS and GSR....

when are you doing the install?
Well i'm goign to start maping out the piping this weekend. The kit was for a GSR integra so i'm goign to have to play around with the piping to make it fit right. And sence i have a LX civic i'm going to need to sawzaw a hole out were the stock airbox sits on the EX. EX and SI civic already have this hole cut out as the stock air box sits in it but sence the LX stock air box sittong the the TB i need to cut it out to make the piping fit. But i should have the intercooler in and most of the piping cleaned up and in by the end of the weekend. And i jut ordered new 310 injectors and a crappy greddy FMU (us only $20 i'l i'm running low on cash) So i'll jsut run the FMU until i can get either a hondata (i really don't want to go OBD1 because i jersey they jump your ECU at inspection so i think i'm going ot go AEM EMS)[/b]

One thing at a time, at least you'll be able to feel some boost!
The greddy fmu would work until you have enough cash for what you really want right. yeah i know what your saying about the hole, mine has a plastic tube running through it. i never bothered to take it out when i put in the short ram. you should be able to drill it out no prob.

that always works. I am thinking about having the muffler shop around me, build me a custom catback exhaust system for my car, it might be cheaper than buying a kit.

no go with hondata dude. Then just take it out when you need to pass inspection.

Hondata is way cheaper and more reliable than EMS.
Wrong, EMS is more reliable, but yes more expensive. It would be useless to use on a street driven lower hp car. But when people start running 600+ it has some things that could benefit. Like being able to tune each injector seperately.

It's not even a reliability question, it's more of options and the abilities on each unit. Don't get me wrong, I love hondata and I won't change it out ever, even if I'm running 500+ but if I was building for 650whp I would probably run EMS.[/b]
I have seen some people run EMS and they absolutely hated it. But hey, if you like it, then go for it.
