FOR THOSE INSTALLING THE KTUNED WATER BYPASS, I suggest tapping the cylinder head and using the included hardware to guarantee the bypass won't leak. I had no issues for the first couple of weeks, but then noticed it had a slow leak from that area. After tapping and using the additional hex bolt, I've had no issues since.
Did you max out the stock injectors? Did you switch to the rdx injectors? If so did they fit in the stock 9th gen si fuel rail or did you have to get an aftermarket fuel rail?

By far the BEST install video I’ve seen on the RBC intake manifold swap for us 9th gen owners. Thank you for the clarity and in-depth details! Can’t wait to go FBO on mine🙌🏼
Ladies and gents if you’re search for a video on how to rbc swap your 9th gen you have clicked the perfect video for that! Just follow everything he says and you will be fine. Dude you have the best video on TH-cam to how to rbc swap a 9th gen. I legit followed everything you did. It made this installation flow much easier than I thought. I had my own obstacles when swapping out the intake but never the less your video helped a ton. Thanks man
Can’t wait to see the POWUH!!! This is exactly where my 9th is at but I’ve deviated to make some supporting mods for when I go boosted in the near future. Also working on aesthetics atm. Great video as always!
Ok, I wasn’t actually looking to do anything to the intake, but actually doing a starter swap. It seemed like this was the best way to get to it. After watching your video, we decided to remove the intake manifold to get to the starter. It was absolutely the best way to get to the starter. Long story short, your video saved my ass!!! Started swapped, intake manifold reinstalled, and running and starting like a champ! Great video!! Thanks so much man!!
ive got a 7th gen accord build and this is by far the best video. i couldnt find much info on the middle parts that you had, just removing and tightening up really. but this showed me the proper way to do the fuel injectors. i wish i saw this before
this dude needs buy an RSX Base and do this whole video over with it, so clear explanation and walkthrough completely fool proof anyone can do it following his video
@@dubzc5895 he would be lucky to make 215 on nicks dyno, I have the exact same setup minus the j37 TB I made 210 WHP, the RBC is all hype on these 9th gens, the head doesn't flow good enough to benefit from it, there is a reason why Honda never put RBC manifolds on k24s
RRC Intake manifold has got a factory cooling water bypass. I wonder if that fit on my K24A engine. This project gives me the creeps so far. The fun part will be awesome but so far that FD2R was giving me heartaches and headaches. Looking good and keep it up. Good and detailed video for what I could see.
Why i didn't this video existed when i did my swap a year ago🥺💔 my set up is so nasty dirty mechanic shit😭 bruh i pulled my harness to make it connect to the ktuned tb even my battery wiring is so messy. Thanks for this video im thinking about re doing my set up to make it cleaner already ordered the stuff u used🙏🏾 ty bro!
You should've took the fuse for the fuel pump out then started the car it'll only run for like 3 seconds then shut off it'll clear the fuel rail of any fuel so it wouldn't be a mess
hi , awesome video mate, been following ur channels and videos, thank you so much for the knowledge sharing, checking your channel almost every day for the new episode of your civic si mods. keep it up!
Watched this bc it’s similar to installing my skunk2 intake manifold! Anyone else running the skunk2 ultra street intake manifold? I have it installed just running into some things I’m lost on!
@@milanmastracci I did put it on the dyno but didn't get a full tune on it since my buddy and I had a short time. He only did a couple of pulls. After that I just data log for him to adjust some more stuff to make it run good. I need to go back and dyno tune again.
Great video as always. K24z3 right here with ported head and a crapton of mods… all motor. Looking to know more about the ZDX tb, as I was thinking about it, but kept hearing that there are voltage issues as it demands more of the ECU and needs to be pinned elsewhere or it will blow the ecu eventually. If ht stick with Skunk2.
The ZDX TB does require a pro tune as it does pull a bit more power, however has been a tested and proven option. What I have seen as well, is when people run larger TB's, they will actually open up the TB and swap a stock 9th gen TB electric motor in it, so the only thing that is different is the physical size of the port.
@@milanmastracci Ive done the zdx throttle body and ported rbc to match and I'm having the idle surge, my tuner told me I need to do a idle relearn. Will that truly make it stop? I don't have any vacuum leaks at all, everything is tight. Just started my tune.. did u change ur stock throttle body motor over to the zdx or no? I was thinking about doing it.
I remember when I did this set up plus 410cc injectors and ported RBC only made 217 miserable WHP and 195 Tq I was so mad that I sold everything the next week and order a Kraftwerk kit.....
LMAO Financially speaking, I don't think going FBO on these cars is worth it, unless you are looking for long term reliability and longevity. If power is your goal, turbo / SC seems to be the way to go 👍
I don’t have a civic , I have an 2009 Honda accord 4 cylinder sedan with the k24 can I run the same engine setup like you ?? And are you going to turbo ,? I would also like to throw some boost to my accord
Question. If you already have the ktuned adapter kit for the rbc. All you have to buy is the fitting and a hose and it should work? Or do you have to do more than that to modify the adapter?
What happened to the accord build.. lol. Was the 300 mark ever made.. I was planning a build similar but couldn't find out the piston to valve clearance issue.. so far the k24a1 is the only block I know that will accept a k24a2 head
Hey love your content btw!!! But Ik this video was uploaded a minute ago but was wondering if you could help me out… I’m installing the RBC on a k24z3 and the fuel injectors are different no surprise. But I’m wondering if these fuel adapters here will work for the k24?? Or maybe you know an alternative way??? Thanks In advance
If you stick with factory injectors do you still need to install the injector adaptors? Ive been given conflicting information and would really appreciate a response. Thank you tou!
This video was showing you how to swap the RBC for relatively cheap. Upgrading the fuel rail does not bring any performance gains, only for aesthetic. If you're upgrading the injectors, I'd change out the rail while you're at it.
Some good words of advice as an owner of 9th gen 2 door bolt on power is good and all but do your self a favor and do a full build top and bottom end before you start spending money the motor does have a few weak spots not addressed you well spin a bearing or get the famous tapping thinking it's all good just noisy injectors not the case ug the timing chain tensioner right away first before anything watch what you change your hondata does alot on stock throttle body more power and hacked mods well destroy this motor its strong but I promise you want to invest to make power or boost seen guys spend lots only to discover the engine needed to be built before the ug don't be that guy selling because the turbo killed the crank bearings yes it can take some abuse won't last maybe in stable warm weather iam at 78 000km doing full build famous tap tap well get you 30hp maybe 50 hp on a stock motor after that your playing dice trust me save the money build it right and you have a gem with crazy potential with bolt ons hondata and a dyno is crucial with out it even changing your exhaust to race well leave you parked

Do I need to use an adapter between the head and the collector? Why did you cut off the water main?
Can you run the rbc manifold without cutting it?
Have an 06 type s and was wondering if the skunk2 pro would better intake manifold for it?
What you did about the 2 vacuum connections on the throttle body?
So if I’m using rdx injectors, I would need the p2r injector hardware still?
My rbc doesn’t have that connection for the pcv valve what do I do where do I connect my pcv valve now I have a 02 rsx type s
