Yes. The cover not only prevent heat exposing to all the parts in the engine compartment, it'll also prevent water from contacting the manifold during rainy days.

Ah Wah completely sealed the hole but I do not want to. So I open a gap for cold air to enter the engine compartment despite knowing water will slip in. So far it's working well in all conditions.

It wasn't too nice looking even after I sprayed it black. So I applied C/F stickers on it to look more standard with the CF scoop.

So bro 4gbanger, any updates on your TD05 + FMIC performance? Hows everything? Have you done the dyno tuning yet?

Stock boost is 0.6. I've pushed it to 1.3 no problem with stock mappings and stock hardware. Just make sure car in good running condition.

Increasing boost will see an immediate improvement in power.

Hello friends! :itsme:

I was back from KL, meeting KC. I had to start my first detail after the trip.


This was my baby, a 2004 Honda Civic V-tec. (Not anymore! She’s someone else’s now. But I still love her.)
Obviously, being a house member, she expected more attention from me. So, I couldn't choose any other ride. I remember KC saying take care of the family first!

(I’ve lost a lot of pictures of her due to a data transfer gone wrong. What’s remaining...
