Review on 🏎️ High-Performance 92-00 Civic Ex with 1.6L Vtec Engine by Andrew Mack

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great product for this money!

I have a Civic SI EH3 93 (hatch). The installation was perfect, I installed it myself in less than 30 minutes. Ported to fit perfectly on the head, solid construction and significantly lighter than the standard cast manifold most of you will be shooting! Be careful if you don't already have an aftermarket exhaust, there is a 2-3 inch gap between the downpipe header and the factory exhaust, but this can be remedied by installing a straight-to-fit test pipe! I installed a "Tanabe Medallion Concept G" exhaust and these manifolds without any further vehicle or exhaust conversions! Well, in terms of horsepower, there was a noticeable difference in tone from idle to 5000rpm (lower notes less high-pitched tone), but as you increase horsepower and torque you'll only notice a modest increase in torque in everyday driving . Considering what other RIGHT modifications have been made (I installed an AEM cold air intake, Tanabe exhaust, Pacesetter header) I don't think I'm getting more than about 12-13 pounds of torque and maybe 15-20 horsepower at 4-5 thousand rpm. So don't expect a turbo here, lol, please be realistic that with just these add-ons, your engine can do that much with no additional modifications to the TB, intake, head, etc. Great product for the money! They were half as many as DC, and they made just as much!
