    what exactly do you mean that turbos push less air through? do you even know what the point of a turbo is?

    I hate ricer pipes

    is your cobra 03 and up cause if it is then thats why, they are bad mothers. if it wasnt then it was a good kill. talons and eclipses are just everyday dsm but if the right stuff is done, they are very quick .

    I hate ricer pipes

    well i dont necessarily think a 15.1 is hot shit, but my buddys turboed d16 that ran 12's, and , oh yeah the fastest ALL MOTOR d16 that runs in the mid 11's, well yeah i think they are hot shit. it doesnt matter though, it obvious that we have different opinions about cars, but at least i...

    Greddy header huh? since when do turbocars have headers. i guess you could consider the turbo manifold a header if it was a tubular race setup manifold? Anyway, ive rode in a talon with 22 psi and 3" exhaust and 3" wasnt even close to big enough. you cant really have big enough on turbo...

    $100 better?

    well i am a huge elemental designs fan. in fact, i just put their 11kv2 in a 1.0 ft^3 box running froma nine.2 amplifier. sounds amazing. I have heard a 15AE ( the one that had the brushed aluminum cone) and it was loud yet sounded very good while doing it. If it were me, i would get the...

    1995 Honda Accord Idling problem

    it is normal for your car to idle a little bit higher when it is just started in the cold. You should worry if it doesnt (not really, all cars are different.) As for the idle surging, well welcome to owning a honda. Have you done any throttle body, intake manifold, throttle body bypass...

    yeah i will agree that resonators dont always look the best, but that sepends on how good the install of it is and also depends on the application. Accords have a decent amount of room underneath for a resonator so you may want to consider that. Headers on a car without an upgraded exhaust is...

    any body got a dsm

    only happens on the five speeds. Seven bolt automatic 4g63t's are the real deal when they are actually running. (16G all the way baby.) automatics are better for boost anyway because you can sustain boost off the lin depending on the stall converters specs.

    3.8 supercharged

    you may want to use a synthetic blend in order to reduce wear and tear inside the cylinder walls. remember that pistons move very very fast. they dont neccessarily move faster with a supercharger, but they sure do obtain much more strees due to constant boost pressure. (actually this is the...

    K&n

    it will make a noticable difference depending on the application. If the length to the im (intake maniflod) is quiet a good deal long, then you will notice more power on the top end range of the rpms. this is the same way a cai acts. a ram air intake prevails on the low end of the rpm range...

    I hate ricer pipes

    am i right though. well, wait a minute, i know i am. I have taled to various tuners of v-8's and 4 cyl and they all have said the same thing. If you want more possibility for horspower/torque gains, you must open up the exhuast. You must have as little restrictions as possible because no...

    $500huh? thats not true. most people think that it has to be name brand quality parts that are already prefabed for the car to make it "extraordinarily quiet" well thats false info my friends. Im glad i have a great knowledge about cars to argue this thread. If i had $125 i could make my...

    I hate ricer pipes

    Retarderd huh? you want to see who has more knowledge of cars. no f***ing sh** you lose torque when you take away backpressure, but oh wait, duhhh i must have forgot to mention, that only happens when you lose velocity due to a significant loss of backpressure. this happens when the dumb ***...

    I hate ricer pipes

    i am an owner of a 1994 honda civic and i must say that it sounds like you ppl in this forum that are bashing on others cars because of the way they sound need to specify. A few of you have specified and said ricers but others think that if you drive an import or even a domestic, that they are...

    what car is faster?

    well,comparing those two isnt really much of a comparison at all. I completely understand that the jeep will pull the 0-60 run in under 5 seconds, but you must realize that it is all wheel drive. You see alot of high end cars hit their 0-60 times right around the same time as the jeep, but...
