Anyone have a engine torque damper that fits with the HKS kit? my inlet pipe is connecting with the bolt on the side of the ABS.

Have you not fitted the brackets to your ABS pump for moving it towards the wing by a couple mm?

Yes that is with them fitted. I'm tempted to remove the bolt as there are two more holding the ABS pump onto the bracket. It would gain me the clearance i need.

i can see, but i have never removed the oil filter, and i have no idea how far it needs to be screwed out to remove it, i presume it screws onto a threaded spline or something? just thought it would be a fairly simple answer from others who have removed it, i know it is not possible to run a full sized filter when you have a sandwich plate

so unsure if you can remove the standard one with the hks pipe so close

It can be removed and a replacement fitted by hand from underneath. Tightening it up with a strap was a total pita (I was on jacks not a ramp) and found I couldn't get the filter tool on the end to use a spanner. This just made me paranoid about it coming loose.

Given I will be doing this several times a year, the relocation was a no-brainer.

awesome, hopefully Honda wont moan too much about the lack of space, i dont have the under trays on the car anyway so shouldn't be a problem for them with a ramp

Undertray doesnt get in the way when doing it from underneath...
Make sure they put in 5w40 as anything else is not recommended by HKS.
I had to disconnect the pipe from the back of the charger so i could move it up to clear the filter.
