hehe..fear the ZM-DET...instead of the DOHC Turbo graphic you should've put DX-T on the fenders...actually i know generally where those check valves go, but can you be a little more specific? also what clutch are you running? your car is the ULTIMATE sleeper,

That rocks. thats a wagner mild steel manifold??...you need to get it ceramic coated! help with under hood heat...any heat probs? Hey I think there is an oil cooler that will bolt right up, came off the Israeli(?) 323...No CEL's with the check valves installed then ?

the check valves didnt stop the CEL'S it stopped the maf from seeing boost, cause if it does it will freak out and cut power, all they do is trick it. the front mount i just trimmed the bumper to fit, not too bad, not as bad i thought it would be, but i did buy a skinny front mount, yeah wagner made it for me, i was gonna put hesder wrap around it, might still do that, i just loaded the pics, ill post them up in a few minuts.

Yeah, I know all about the MAF seeing boost. My buddy has a Drag kit on his Accord. They use a missing link instead of regular check valves but, the lil filter on it kept on getting clogged causing the MAF to see boost and bogg down. We then tried regular check valves and she didn't like that either. So he got rid of the missing link and FMU and got a Apexi S-AFC2. Now, ($300 some odd dollars later) it runs much smoother now.

cool, what fuel management are you running? Never mind re-read it. Are you using anything ECU related?
