Great info guys...you have a well run forum.

[MadSpleen85]

great guide, it has become my checklist. is there going to be a stage 2?

That could be possible. Throw me some suggestions on what kind of info you are looking for and I will see if I can't track you down some answers.

sweet write up!...this should be required reading in order to be initiated into CB7tuner Member stutus

Would have to talk to Deev about that but it sounds like a great idea to me. Later

Great write up. I have been planning on changing the suspension in my car for a long time, but i always had ppl tell me that after their spring change the car ride has changed etc. i think it is mainly because ppl only did half the work. Thanks again... now i just plan to get koni yellows and eibach.. yeyeah.

Great write up!! Sure does help. Thanks for taking the time to do it

[MadSpleen85]

Thanks for all the props everyone. All I have is time. So figured I would create a place to find some of the answers to the most common questions on here. Glad to see I could help so many people. Later

nice info.... really nice. do you know how to adjust the clutch. i have to come all the way up off the cluth before the car starts moving. the clutch doesnt skid though. my father (pro mechanic in jamaica) said i shouldnt change the clutch i should adjust it...

Great job helping newbies

Although most of this was already known it's a good way to remind a person what really should be done because some of us tend to think we know everything but little steps along the way. Thanks again for the great post

[92Sleeper]

i was just wonderin ? how can i start to improve the performance without reading this post- J/K this has been probably the most helpful guide/tutorial i just want to give props to you all this has been a very interesting year for me considering i realized the potential my car has and it wouldn't have been possible without your help Spleen thanks again Madd Props.

Glad I could help so many.. Since the Rep Points system is up and running feel free to shoot me and anyone else that has helped you some rep points. Just click on the little scale down in the bottom left of a post by the person's rep you want to add to. Later

Like he said in the post, it hasn't been scientifically proven.

"backpressure" really is a myth. It actually has to do with the velocity of the exhaust gas, and a lot of other factors.

But yes, if you go too big, then there can be a bad effect.

Many Honda engines seem to respond like larger engines though, because I have seen some gains all through the power band with exhausts that you would think would be too big.

Yea, like crazy bastads like myself going 3" exhaust piping on an all-motor setup

[m-tec93accord]

i would think that since you would be using most of the upper range of your rpm and also one would think you would move your powerband to that area(cams, timing, etc.), would need essentially the same diameter piping as though a FI motor would see due to the same amount of volume would be seen all the time........as far as my understanding of velocity and turbulence goes

that would bring up the fact more displacement motor need a bigger piping as well(well for us 2.0 and up, what honda goes above a 2.4liter???), so those 1.8liters and down(teggies,civis, fits) motors would need like 2.50" but anything bigger would need 2.50 and up

ok, back to learning.........
