The Karcepts K20A/A2/A3/Z1 Throttle
Body To RBC/RRB/RBB Intake Manifold Adapter provides the SOLUTION for
directly bolting up a 2002-2006 RSX-S/ITR or 2002-2005 Civic Si/CTR
throttle body to an Accord Euro R, 2006-2009 Civic Si, or 2004-2005 TSX
intake manifold.
Ease of fitment has been confirmed for the following vehicle/engine/mount combinations:
- 1992-1995 Honda Civics equipped with a K20 engine and Hasport EGK1 engine mounts
- 1996-2000 Honda Civics equipped with a K20/K24 engine and Hasport EKK2 engine mounts
- 1994-2001 Acura Integras equipped with a K20 engine and Hasport EGK1 engine mounts
- 2002-2006 Acura RSX-S/Honda ITRs with a K20 engine and all available engine mounts
Other chassis, mounts, and engine combinations can still utilize the
RBC intake manifold; however, clearances between the radiator support,
radiator, and hood may need to be addressed. For example, a 2002-2005
Honda Civic Si/CTR just needs some minor trimming of the upper radiator
support in order to fit an RBC manifold into its chassis.
Are you desiring to make the full potential of your K-Series engine
with a cost effective, well engineered, Honda factory intake manifold?
We tested the new RBC (2006-2009 Civic Si) intake manifold (Honda Part
#: 17100-RRB-A00) and were able to make 230WHP and 162LB-FT out of a completely internally stock K20A2 engine. For a total cost of
under $300 USD (Karcepts K20A/A2/A3/Z1 Throttle Body To RBC/RRB/RBB
Intake Manifold Adapter, RBC Intake Manifold, and miscellaneous gaskets
and hoses), this is by far the best “BANG-FOR-YOUR-BUCK” power upgrade!
All mounting hardware is provided for attaching the adapter to the
intake manifold and the throttle body to the adapter. Two rubber plugs
are additionally included in order to plug the unused MAP sensor port
located on the RBC/RRB/RBB intake manifold as well as the ability to
plug the EVAP Purge Control Valve port if desiring to do so in order to
gain additional hood clearances.
Use Karcepts Part #: KIM01 for standard installation.
Use Karcepts Part #: KIM02 for applications requiring vacuum/boost
ports. To eliminate the need for vacuum T-offs or an auxiliary vacuum
spacer this adapter includes two 1/8" NPT side ports. 1/8" NPT plugs
are included for those who may not have an immediate need for the ports
but desire a vacuum/boost port option in the future. Customers have
utilized these ports to "tuck" their bulky brake booster hose, to power
accessories on their boosted setups, and can even be used for nitrous
applications.
