ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

      I prefer to run a vstack rather than put an interfooler in front of my car.

        Run a cai intake that had the same piping diameter/length as that interfooler and you'll see the same gains.

        You can't cool ambient air temperature with ambient temperature.

          1. Turbos generate airflow by exhaust gases spinning a turbine.
          2. The airflow gets transferred in the intake stream.
          3. An intercooler cools this air mass so you dont have hot air going directly into the intake of your car.
          4a. Putting an intercooler on an NA car is retarded.
          4b. Putting an "interfooler" in front of your car isnt going to do anything. Your better off sticking your filter out of the hood if you want a "ram air" effect.
          5. Dont think about anything related to an intercooler and so on unless your going turbo.
          6. You need to do more research.
          7. VTEC is a joke.


          very well side
