how can you tell if it's a STOCK Prelude Vtec Intake manifold and a prelude vtec throttle body??????

also where can you send your intake manifold to get it

strude and hume? (i think it's how you spell it...i mean the prot and polish job with the chambers polished and runners converted to one runner)

not to be rude but your spelling sucks? and I'm not sure what your looking for??!!

you wanna know how to tell if the intake manifold is stock? ? as compared to like what? a Venom intake? or do you think some work was done on the stock unit??
Venom intake manifold

it's Extrude Honed by the way... and a Port and polish can be done by any experianced engine/machine shop. But don't waste your money if your only gonna do the intake, you should also have the head matched..

hows about some history and a clear explanation of what and why you want this info

i want to know in case i see one for sale so i'll know if it's been port and polished or extrode hone....

well if thats all you could always measyre the TB but I don't remember the exact size of a vtec TB, as for the intake manifold you can tell if work has been done cuz these parts are cast iron, so they have a rough finish inside and out.

if it's been honed/polished/ported it willhave a smoothe shiny finish and the inlet runners that match up to the head should have a larger diameter

If its on the car you may not be able to tell anything. If you are buying the part it should have a polished appearance, as well as a larger diameter opening.

I used KMS to P&P my intake.

Here is their web address, www.honda-performance.com .

There are many other shops that will do the work, but be careful and check with customers who have used them for results.
