Skunk2 Pro-S II Coilovers for 06+ Honda Civic

Skunk2’s completely redesigned, fully adjustable Pro-S II Coilovers for Honda’s ’06-’10 Civic have arrived. Similar to Skunk2’s industry-leading Pro-C Coilovers, Pro-S II Coilovers now feature double-adjustable ride height and a state-of-the-art mono-tube design. Thanks to threaded shock bodies, Pro-S II Coilovers now offer height adjustments independent of spring preload, which results in significant ride-height changes without sacrificing shock travel or ride comfort. Quick and precise ride-height adjustments can now be made for dialing in corner balancing as well as for improved handling, responsiveness, and overall balance. Skunk2’s track- and street-tested Pro-S II shock valving offers the perfect balance between daily driving and track performance and its all-new, shortened shock bodies and reduced shaft strokes help maintain adequate suspension travel on lowered vehicles for improved performance without sacrificing comfort.

Pro-S II Coilovers feature vehicle-specific valving dialed in by Skunk2’s suspension engineers, carefully selected springs designed to dramatically improve handling, and a race-inspired, mono-tube design for superior performance. Skunk2’s micro-polished, mono-tube design, combined with its precision-machined, oversized shafts and pistons, ensure that each Pro-S II Coilover is both responsive and durable. The results are unmatched cornering grip, reduced body roll, and a feel of vehicle control and stability like no other.

Like all Skunk2 Coilovers, its Pro-S II Coilovers feature hard-anodized, CNC-machined, forged 6061-T6 aluminum spring perches and CNC-wound racing springs manufactured from high-quality, SAE9254V spring steel. Each spring is designed to optimize the balance between comfort and performance and is custom-matched to their respective shocks. Pro-S II Coilovers offer ride-height adjustments as low as three inches for an aggressive and sporty appearance.

Just like the entire Pro Series lineup, Pro-S II Coilovers set the benchmark for suspension performance. Similar to how Skunk2’s Pro Series Camshafts and Valvetrain revolutionized Honda engine performance, its fully adjustable, Pro-S II Coilovers do just that for enthusiasts who are looking for high-performance suspension components at an affordable price. Based on more than 15 years of racing and suspension tuning experience, Pro-S II Coilovers feature the same technology Skunk2 uses on its own championship-winning road racing and drag racing cars.

Like all Skunk2 products, Pro-S II Coilovers feature a one-year warranty and are designed to provide years of enjoyment for the life of your vehicle. Never wait for a coilover rebuild again; Skunk2 stocks large quantities of replacement dampers that, in most cases, cost less than a typical coilover rebuild. Purchase your replacement dampers directly from Skunk2 to minimize downtime.

AEM Water/Methanol Injector Monitor

The most advanced, easy to use water/methanol safety device on the market.
•Use your water/methanol injection system with complete peace of mind
•Easy to set up and use
•Smart and sophisticated system that monitors the entire flow curve

Overview

Water/Methanol injection users now have the sophisticated safety system they’ve always needed in an easy to use package. Unlike most competitor systems that only check flow at a single point, AEM’s Injection Monitor is a smart system that monitors the entire flow curve. Flow versus injection rate data is continuously collected and any deviation away from an acceptable baseline flow curve will trigger an alarm output. This output can be used to reduce boost, pull timing, switch maps, or any other function to protect an engine from harmful detonation in the event there is an unsafe operating condition.

The AEM Injection Monitor features a wide variety of innovative features including PC configuration software with USB connectivity, an “Auto Set” feature that automatically provides a best-suggested baseline configuration, a high-tech analog display gauge with user adjustable backlighting that can be flashed when an alarm is triggered, and an internal data logger that records injection and alarm status data. The Injection Monitor works with virtually every water/methanol injection system that uses 1/4″OD tubing!

Key Features
•Monitors the entire injection curve and its relationship to injection progression.
•Can be used with any injection system with ¼” OD tubing.
•Tunable PC based software with USB connectivity.
•Injection Monitor software has a built in Auto Set Limit feature that automatically suggests best alarm configuration.
•One low side (ground) driver and one high side (+12v) driver can be configured to turn on or off during an alarm condition.
•Internal data logger records all injection flow and alarm status data.
•High-tech analog style gauge is easily readable and user programmable for either 0-500 cc/min or 0-1000 cc/min flow ranges with interchangeable black & white face plates and black & silver bezels.
•Gauge alarm and backlighting color is fully user adjustable through software to match virtually any OEM dash or desired color.
•Built in warning lights inform the user of an alarm trigger.
•Injection Monitor software offers a live gauge view that displays both injection percentage and flow.
•Fully adjustable alarm delay and alarm reset period.
•0-5v analog output for use with data loggers and virtually any engine management system, such as the AEM EMS or F/IC.
•Auxiliary input for use with AEM Water/Methanol Injection “Boost Safe” feature triggers alarm output in the event there is a system readiness issue (open circuit, short circuit, low fluid level, etc.)
•High-quality precision flow sensor included.
•Gauge backlight is user defined to dim on either a +12v or ground signal

Skunk2 Drive-By-Wire Throttle Body for the 2006+ Honda Civic Si

KSeries owners rejoice – behold the all new Drive-By-Wire Throttle Body for the 2006+ Honda Civic Si. Skunk2’s unique electronic drive system—the first of its kind—is paired with the finest throttle body technology in the industry. Like all Skunk2 Pro Series Throttle Bodies, its new drive-by-wire units feature CNC-machined, 6061 aluminum construction, and will debut featuring a 80mm inlet and 72mm outlet in Black Series anodized finishes.

Best of all, there’s no core exchange required. Each Pro Series Throttle Body features proprietary internals that, when matched with the factory sensors, allow for increased airflow but without sacrificing any of the smooth throttle characteristics Honda owners expect. A larger throttle body is key to producing additional power throughout the powerband on modified engines with increased airflow demands. Skunk2’s all-new, Pro Series Throttle Bodies for drive-by-wire K-series engines feature a large bore, which results in significant horsepower gains throughout the powerband on naturally aspirated applications and even more on forced induction ones.

K&N A4 Owners get extra 18HP

K&N continues to improve vehicle performance through its continuous production of new air intake systems guaranteed to increase horsepower and acceleration. K&N’s air intake (69-9505T) for 2009 and 2010 Audi A4, A4 Cabriolet and A4 Quattro models with a 2.0 liter engine is just another example of K&N’s dedication to outstanding performance. The Audi A4 is an entry-level luxury car with elegant styling and sharp handling. The 2.0 liter engine however, lacks the power one would expect from such a prestigious car.

K&N product developers looked at the restrictive factory intake setup of the Audi A4 and immediately knew they could achieve more horsepower. “Along with a body change in 2009, the Audi A4 air box was also relocated,” said product manager Bert Heck. “We had to start from scratch. Our ultimate goal was to get as much power out of the vehicle as we could without affecting the drivability of the vehicle. Older A4 model designs made doing this very difficult.”

Development began with the testing of varying intake tube diameters with the mass air sensor installed in both the tube and in the factory mass air housing. After a series of testing sessions and design changes K&N engineers came up with a design that met all goals.

“With the limited space and use of the factory mass air housing, little space was left for the air filter,” commented Heck. “We had to eliminate the intake tube and design a custom hose to replace it. This saved space and allowed for a larger K&N air filter.” The air intake’s filter, part RF-1047, is a cone shaped, high-flow air filter that provides excellent filtration, outstanding engine protection, and less restriction than the factory air filter.

A custom heat shield was also designed as part of the 69-9505T intake. It helps to reduce the amount of hot engine compartment air going into the engine. It also utilizes the factory fresh air inlet to direct cooler outside air into the air intake.

K&N’s comprehensive testing of the 69-9505T utilized three test vehicles with approximately 100 dyno pulls, road testing and computer monitoring. The final result showed a power gain of 18.14 horsepower at 4435 rpm with the use of K&N’s 69-9505T air intake system.

Installation of the 69-9505T air intake system is easy with K&N’s photo illustrated instruction sheet. K&N’s 69-9505T air intake system typically installs on 2009 and 2010 Audi A4, A4 Cabriolet and A4 Quattro models with the 2.0 liter engine in 90 minutes or less with common hand tools.
