Must have Mods for New DC5R :D :D

mounts before header, will protect your header from cracking welds. EIther way you will find yourself doing mounts when they decide to break on you

Yep, mounts prior to header. Was going to say do it first, but do it when it eventually cracks.

I reckon;

intake
coilovers,

then whatever.

Stevan is right..Mounts should be,if not, your first mod man..OEM are Plastic inserts :P...I wouldnt go Hasport,i have them and my car feels like a diesel truck! so with hardrace, my mate has them,hardly any vibrations

Just ensure you take it somewhere that has done it before, otherwise an inexperienced workshop could spend half a day on it, ideally find someone on the forums close to you that can help you diy it

I paid $50 and a case of coronas to a fellow member to get mine done

Don't be too afraid regarding defects and a header, with a proper cat and sensible exhaust you shouldnt cause too much suspicion regarding smog and loudness, install is fairly simple as well.

Yee i get what ya mean, i guess when the time comes ill make a thread abotu anyone who can help and what not

im looking at an rm01a exhaust but still iffy about everything just yet :|

[stevan]

Fujitsubo is always a good choice, love my powergetter! You may grow to find the Rmo1a a little quiet hehe. How is your DC5 search going ?

[dnapol]

really? its a little quite? I want loudish well i want mild on idle and normal driving but on vtec i want a screammm so you think powergetter? also iv found an ITR member that is selling in Jan, clean, white dc5r with low kms

[stevan]

Sounds like you want a powergetter haha, pretty much the exact description of the tone it has DC5R in Champ White is absolute win mate go for it, i wish i had one!!

[dnapol]

yee im super excited january the countdown so does the powergetter "get" attention from cops / epa?

i dont really want defects for too loud or constant changing over to stock to pass epa :S

[stevan]

on idle its almost dead silent, you can sneak by at regular rpms without much attention, but when you put the foot down its a beautiful sound. Sometimes i wish it was louder but i think i would get sick of it if it was. Catback change takes 15mins if you ever get trouble.

Only trouble cops have given me is "your tyres are too big" ....wtf haha

[dnapol]

so would you say power getter is louder than rm01a? cos im really looking for what i said, but its also a track car, id like it loud

[stevan]

haha can't have both, doesnt exist Powergetter is louder then RM01A, if you want something loud look at something like the spoon n1 catback, personally its a bit loud for me on the street.

If i had a choice for a race exhaust it would be a J's racing 70RR, check this out, imagine this on the streets hahaha

[dnapol]

i always watch that hahah i guess i want something loud but not too loud, but not piss weak to show up at the track. im seeing reviews saying rm01a is louder, some say power getter is :|
