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.

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.

        running richer will not make your car run any faster, stock with no mods that is.

            I hope that they don't have the sr20 in their cars. and stock KA with just those mods, I don't think so. I've driven in a s14 with a ka twin cam with basic bolt ons, and it wasn't all that. my buddy with cb7 and h22 with only basic bolt ons smoked an s13 with sr20 and down pipe and intercooler and whole nine yards.

                  they do that with hondas too, using a resistor on the intake air temp sensor, all it does it make it run richer, doesn't seem like a good idea to me

                  on the stairs, she grabs my arm, says whats up,
                  where you been, is something wrong?
                  i try to just smile, and say everything’s fine.

                    IF you like wasting gas go ahead. Whoever told you running rich makes you go faster is a dumbass...I would not take any information from them again...If the 240 is turbo the only reason they run a bit rich is a safety precaution not to blow there motors...if its NA and you think thats fast...you never been in a fast car before.

                        Running rich actually causes you to make less power, in most cases. Running lean, to a point, will make more power.

                        More fuel does not equal more power.
