[QUOTE="geardownson, post: 3147974, member: 563195"] So let me get this right lol If i were to swap my cam....which isnt that difficult, i may see 6-8 whp (Roughly 200 bucks) An add an aftermarket intake ,adds 5 whp at the max. (10 min job an everyone and their mother has done including the ricers you dislike...) (roughly 100 bucks) Then you would have respect for me now that i have gained 15 HP and am dynoing at a blazing 140 hp? lmao you gotta be kidding me... The body kit was strictly cosmetic. I just didnt like my stock bumper. and its somewhat functional because i will have a lot more surface area for my intercooler. You may like it you may not. everyone has their own tastes. As for my gauges i have a wideband,EGT,boost an oil pressure gauges. Which are functional an not for looks but for me to monitor to whats going on in the motor/turbo setup an to alarm me if something is wrong. Your not going to see me with a big tach like you see a lot of ricers with because its nonfunctional unless you drag and is just for show. My custom built bolt on turbo which run me 4500 will give me an added 80+ hp at the wheels.( Which im sure every ricer around has at least 2 of em sitting in their garage.....[IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif[/IMG])Which is more than enough to keep up with V8 mustangs an possibly pull on them considering my weight. Sure you see a lot of civics an integras with turbos in em but they are not reliable without upgrading the internals.Mine is without. Theres a guy with this setup who has already got over 70k on this turbo setup with stock internals. I would have already upgraded the cam like you said but my piggyback ecu is mapped for my car just the way it is.No tuning required. No extra modifications or i may have boost creep or spike with threatens the reliability of the motor and i would have to go get the car dynoed an tuned which isnt very cheap. Im not trying to start an argument but jeeze dude that post was kinda ignorant. And i have to ask what kind of car do you drive? [/QUOTE]
