Non-kit parts..

In addition to the SunSpeed kit you will require extra parts to do the install. I will post the final cost of these once I’ve completed the install.

In the above image:

2 x 60-80mm Pipe clips

1 x 70mm Silicone hose to connect the induction kit to the throttle body

2 x Elise S2 exhaust gaskets (to fit the cat)

1 x Honda K20A2 exhaust manifold gasket

1 x Honda K20A2 ‘In-sight’ oil filter

1 x Honda JDM wide-band lambda sensor (as I am fitting a JDM ECU) - Don’t buy one of these until you have decided what ECU you want to use. The US JDM ecu does not like this Honda wide-band and ignores it.
