Super Sprint full race system installed

New engine is in, and the SS are fully installed.

Headers, race cats, x pipe, race mufflers.

I'm not in town, but my buddy was nice enough to install everything for me

I didn't take the pics, and I have some videos of him reving the engine from inside if you wanna hear it... sounds mean.

PM me and I'll send you the file by email.

Thinking about the Brembo 380mm front and 345mm rears in yellow, attached is a pic from someone else's kit.

Considering the ACS 3 pc rear wing as well.

Comments?

Awesome! Did you go with the V1 stepped headers? Just installed the X pipe and sport exhaust and couldn't be happier with the fit/finish and most importantly the SOUND!

Thinking of eventually going with the V1 stepped headers and hiflo cats.

Bet you can't wait to get back home!

Is the race cat directly from SuperSprint? Is it their section 1 + cat? I'm looking into a smog solution for near future =P

I'm also interested in which headers you installed. In my case we had to modify the bung location of the SS v1 step headers to get them to fit. What are your plans to compensate for the SES / Cat fault codes?

I just ordered everything super sprint, headers (don't remember which version) and race cats, x pipe, and the race mufflers...

Yes I'm thinking of getting the ECU sent down and reprogramming it later

I'm not sure how my buddy's shop modded the bung location... he told me verbally and he says the lghts not coming on.... so I guess it's all good.

This is quoted from my friend, "no engine comes on becuase i move the o2 sensor after the mid pipi after the cat. works prefect this way."

It's the only way hahah.

doesn't sound rice.... depends on what you mean by rice....

some japanese car fanatics love that civic meaow!

the 3.2 sounds pretty deep in the vids my buddy sent me of my car...

I think if you just do mufflers, it may sound a bit light.. but I choose the headers to the end... so guaranteed to sound good.... plus its SS.. not a custom... so I trust SS had to live up to it's brand

You know that's not possible right? The data is transmitted directly to the MOT.

You very well may pass the test.
The secondary CATs may be enough to get you through.

When I did the test on my car (OE), the test data was WAY at the low end of acceptable ranges, so there is definitely room to move.
