            Ander: That cord is for a Sports button (it's only on the 90 and 91's) But I guess it lets the RPM'S go up a lil more before it shifts.

            Clean_4th gen: I myself also like flat black and was really giving that color thought.

            Dark_Accord: I like that color but IDK how well it would look on our CB's

            steelbluesleepR: I also like the laurel blue metallic but it was in horrible shape and like Ander said "rust"

                Cool, I like that burned orange but flat black looks better IMO!

                  IMO you really have to do it really well in order for flat black to look good on a cb, instead of looking like primer. its not the best color for a daily-driven vehicle since you cant buff any scratch or scuff out without making the matte paint shiny.

                    That's true! It was just a suggestion though! I'm keeping mine white!

                            Kickass strut bar.

                            I see you removed that metal tubing piece that went from the vc to the intake and replaced it with a breather filter. What'd you do about the other tube that uses that metal piece? The one underneath what goes to the intake.

                              Yeah I removed that after I put my breather on. It looks so much better. But back to the bottom tube that goes to the IM from the thermostat IIRC, anyways I just replaced it with some new hose. Anti-freeze runs through it so be ready to have a little spill out when you take it off. It only took about 10mins to do and only 1.20 for the hose from oreillys.

                                My main concern is, does the coolant get crazy hot? Does it have to be a heat resistant hose?
