Please DO NOT Post In The General Section

From this point on until otherwise briefed, posting in the general section of Performance Tech is prohibited. The only thing to remain here will be the stickies. We would just delete this section, but that would cause unintended results.


The majority of the threads created can appropriately be placed in one of the Performance Tech sub-forums or Technical; and the posting of them here is detrimental to the activity of said forums. If you have any questions about where you need to place your thread PM me or one of the other mods.


For the most part you all have caught on without this post, but there have been a few habitual offenders that forced me to say this.


Everyone will get a couple of warnings from here on out, after that I just start deleting threads.

Again if you have any questions, PM me or one of the other mods.

                Cisco(HondaFan81) really had good luck with dhracing.com and he gave me a good price on custom 85mm 9 to 1 CR forged pistons.

                  I'm definately considering DHRacing, esp after I see Cisco's dyno sheets. But we could use more reputable places to get F22 engine parts from.

                    www.dh-racing.com

                    www.importperformanceparts.net

                    www.raceeng.com

                    www.f22parts.com

                    I'd stay away from anything KMS (fast93accord has had bad experiences with them regarding valvetrain). They have nice website but their customer service & quality sucks.

                        Um, no. They fabricate their own pistons, AFAIK. However, the installation of their products are notoriously more involved than usual. I think DHRacing is a better alternative. I may let him build my engine. I want Nascar Bearings. When I blow my F22b, I will send it to him.

                          No, JG issues was encountered by 93Accord on HS and some other forums. He was the one going for like 200 shot of nitrous on F22 engine built up. He had a JG retainer(s) go on him and it dropped a valve (at least one). Then JG gave him issues when they built his head (he did not) on refunding him or redoing their work, etc. Big hassle.

                          fast93accord had issues with KMS regarding their F22 valve spring upgrade not fitting, etc. He ended up getting a refund, giving up on them, then later asked me about where I got my F22 single spring upgrade valvetrain, which was from www.f22parts.com
