Seems interesting... clears up space for some aftermarket headers..... and it's lighter... and room for turbo.

comments?

Those would solve a lot of problems for the hybrid cars, especially a CRX. Even a B16 swap needs mucho more room in the engine compartment. I bet that is this exact reason TOO is marketing these babies. Looks like a good product, and Endyn is a pretty good name.

Question though, I thought they gained 5/8" clearance with that design, but the thread was claiming another 5/8" on top of that for the production pieces. A full inch would be insane cool. Just wish somebody would put out a mount kit for the B16 which didn't screw up the forward mount.

I think this thing gains atleast a good inch judging from the pictures.

As for mounts, I've been running without a front mount for a year now and 20+ k miles and have had no problem... running the HASport kit. I looking into this becaues 1) weight savings and 2) I cna fit a header in there or a turbo.

Should be fun.
