Looks good - your blog doesn't cover all of the steps which resulted in the final product

Polishing it is the easy bit ...... fitting it can be a PITA.

if your changing it dont forget to install a Hondata gasket to stop heat soak and if you are going FI why not enlarge the diameter of the intake so you can fit a bigger TB at a later stage

I looked into the Hondata and decided it wasn't a good idea due to reliability issues

A fair few bad stories out there.

stu_c....I am one step ahead of you!

Just got the polished inlet manifold, Spoon TB and Toda Manifold installed yesterday. She is sooo much smoother! Response is better, but not massivley different!

But she looks sweet! And port / polish it too! Might as well while you are there!

I will get some pics up soon!
