My first sidewinder turbo friendly version of the popular RBC/ RBB swirl pot. As the industry has grown and new companies have come out with manifolds with more exaggerated turbo placement and the various turbo sizes, its no longer a one size fits all and I now offer 6 variants of FWD swirl pots for the RBB/ RBC cylinder head.
V2 moved the tank forward and changed the entry/ exit clocking (rotation of the water) for a much needed improvement in clearance with a number of early sidewinder turbo manifolds and smaller turbo combos vs. V1.
This swirl pot starts with a beautifully machined 6061-T6 flange that incorporates the largest port possible within the OEM gaskets footprint and a 1/2" NPT heater port. You can choose to have any number of accessory bung options added to the tank in any open space. The outlet itself can be configured for standard hose (1.25" OD) or -16 male flare.
The hardware kit includes four M8 stainless steel socket head bolts, a 90° heater hose fitting, a plug in the event you don't plan on connecting a heater hose, and Genuine Honda gasket. The swirl pot is welded so that it sits level when bolted to an engine leaned back 15° (OEM position) for the traditional option and leaned forward 8° (intake side) for the gangster lean engine mount option.
NOTE: Made to Order - Contact for ETA - If you are interested in a specific design that varies from this, please email us at info@vk-garage.com or If you have questions related to the configuration or options. The cap bung has a 1/16" NPT port for connection to an overflow and uses early model Honda radiator caps; such as an 88'-91' Civic/ CRX or 90'-93' Integra. If you are using AN lines, I recommend designing the upper radiator hose so that there is droop/ give... so the engines movement and does not push/ pull on the radiator and fatigue any parts.
DISCLAIMER: Due to the constantly changing turbo manifold market and the increased size of turbos being used, it is your job to either verify fitment by sending images with measurements to me prior to purchase for my recommendation. DO NOT ASK ME FOR A RECOMMENDATION with a simple parts list... I have no clue what x, y, z companies manifold and a, b, c companies turbo fit like! I will only respond to emails that have quality photos with a top down perspective showing the available space.
I can work with you to collect dimensions and create a product that works with your combo if one of my variants don't obviously fit and cant be made to fit with minor changes. If you do not follow up with me after your purchase, I will assume you want a duplicate of this listing.
