Those open top intakes should come with a strip of rubber to seal the box to the hood.

my wife would love that, honestly.

For sure man, I wasn't directing anything at you personally, just putting that out there for whoever.

No cars need back pressure, including NA. Yes, NA cars benefit from correct header primary and collector length to tune reversion based on valve events and where you want to make power torque or horsepower / low or high RPM but that is NOT backpressure. Turbo cars make more power based on...

For sure, just want to make sure if I get Hondata I won't be limited to what I can do for tuning the car for mods that require it.

A little off topic, can anyone comment on Hondata capabilites vs HPTuners? I've been using HPT on a few hundred cars over the last 15 or so years. Can I do all the same things to my Civic with Hondata regarding recalibration or is it more basic? Do I have access to fully calibrate all the...

Yeah my Spyder was 145k, R8 was 235k, AMG was 190k CTR is more fun (not faster) than any 85k car I can think of. Unless your idea of fun is making lots of noise and smoke, which I also get.

a backfire is combustion in the intake manifold, hence the name back(wards) fire. They used to blow your air cleaner off. Doesn't really happen with port or direct injection. It's a carb thing. Pops and burbles are combustion happening very late in the cycle and more audible with retarded...

Can you describe the ideal way a car deal should work from your perspective so there is no "used car salesman" notions involved?

the point is, neither of us are "idiots" just that one of us understands that vehicles are worth less after you buy them, drive them, and sell them back to a place that needs to make a profit so 100 people can feed their families. When I bought the X5 I knew what I was getting into and accepted...

I'm not a franchise dealer. Just because you made a decision you regret doesn't mean it was personal or it wasnt business because that's exactly what business is and people get fucked a lot harder than that every day in other industries. Chances are, the guy that bid your car probably isn't...

They don't need you to pay that, they need someone else to pay it.

A dealer has to buy your car (43k), service it (500), detail it (100), market it (100), and floorplan it (1500) before they even sell it they are in it for 45k. They advertise it for 49k hoping it sells fast and they can make 4k. But someone negotiates and they make 3k. With that 3k they need...

I mean honestly, how do you get this car over the speed limit anyways?

FK8 is an abomination

are you running colder plugs and mostly driving around normally on the street? could be injectors, injector install issue, injection timing issue, injector characterization issue, etc altering the airflow model to change fuel trims probably wouldn't be the solution.

What are the drops in real life on these? Are you guys using FK8 or FL5 springs? ProKit is the least drop or HR? HR FK8 better than FL5? Then Spoon Then Sportlines the most drop? Is there any summary of the drops/rakes? I am looking for the least amount of drop with the most stock like rake...

because no self respecting man would drive a subaru.

To the guys worried about sending the ECM out for unlocking, don't be worried. I had to send my BMW ecm to europe to have it unlocked by the ONE person in the world with the ability to unlock it (FEMTO). This is common practice with new BMWs. I had to remove it, box it, schedule international...
