Thanks for your comments gareth. It will be nice if I can get the rest of stuff on it. But, due to night shift work. There isn't much time to sort most of things out. I'll try to get a sound clip/clips of the car/exhaust. I have a set of endless coilover, waiting to be shipped from Japan. Once that's fitted, I'll be even more happier.
 
Hey Si you've been busy, all them mods in 2 months. I would be interested to see your OEM wheels in gunmetal, personally I'm torn between a refurb in either gunmetal or black or just get some aftermarket ones.

Sterling work :smt023:

Yes hippy, I've been waiting for the bits to shipped over from Japan. It's worth to wait. + my night shift work at heathrow doesn't help either. Is getting there, I am still waiting for the endless zeal coilovers to arrive so hopefully most of the handling side of things will get sorted very soon. Thanks.

how you finding the arc?

Hello Dave, thanks for your comments. Well, I am trying to find somewhere quite, so I can have a full blast of the car. Record a sound clip of the system/car, so others can judge on whether the modification is worth it/not.

The ARC box works really well. Sound amazing, especially when you accelerate not only the car response well. It suction sound from the box gets louder and louder as you hitting vtec through thr gears. If people have the right budget. I strongly recommend the ARC box for all the EP3 owners.

Since, I've fitted the maxim works exhaust manifold, full decat Fujitsubo Exhaust system RM01-A and the ARC box. The mid-range have imporved dramatically, and the car seems to be pull a lot more freely and quick response as well. That is without the inlet manifold and any other work on the ECU.

Not sure how much power gain my car gets from it. But, I'll soon find out when I have time to take it for a dyno test. Once again thanks for your time!!!
