Never tried a cambelt change :(
Was thinking about changing the tb and intake mani myself but would need to take the car to get the ECU sorted. Was thinking of a dastek since I don't know any one who works with Hondata in Scotland. I take it the dual intake manifold no longer existing on the S2 mani will not cause a engine check light? (I can't see any codes for it in the manual) . Can anyone confirm this?

I had an email from PAW about this way back when, from memory I think you may throw a code.

i never got a code when i went back to my p13 after my tune (wasnt broken i was trying to get the speedo to work) when i had an atr manifold on but that had a spoon chip fitted, to be fair it felt rather good but no where near the proper tune ;)

maybe an option as a tempory thing before you get a tune :arrow:

I was hoping no code with the manifold changed over. Just need to do the work I can myself, then drive it to a garage and get the cams and ecu tuning done 8-) .

Will need to look for a decent tuner in south Scotland..........
Anyone know of any? :)

I've not really looked into it properly, hopefully my fellow luders can point me in the right direction!

depends on your wallet & target. IMO, ATR cams are spot on for an intermediate build. I got 228bhp using them with 10:1 CR and bennyboy got 244bhp using them with 11:1.

If you go bigger you will need 11:1 pistons, not sure what you atm
