next mod??

[dan]

I've got $300 saved up for my next mod. I'm torn between getting a set of

NST K20 pulley kit (if they ever get them in stock again.)

-0R-

the P2R TBS/TBG/IMG combo.

I'm looking to get the best overall performance & good HP gains with my 300 bux. If it helps at all, current setup is Fujita SRI & Strup RH. Everything else is stock.

Thanks for the input!

[LONESTAR]

get P2R TBS/TBG/IMG combo. you will love it more. i am whn i get my taxes.

[dan]

Werd. What I really want is an exhaust to go with my sweet ass race header. But you can't even get an exhaust for less than 400 or 500 bucks and that's a little more than I wanna spend right now. Looks like I'll be getting the spacers and gaskets.

[berny2435]

save for exhaust.. . find a used one.. .

[Smoot]

You should lower it.

[dan]

o my god smoot. I just said the same shit to my brother. I was like "fuck it, my car would look d0pe lowered!". Then again, I really hate the "rev hang" or throttle delay with the shitty drive by wire system. I'm told pulleys help enormously with this problem, improving throttle response, acceleration, HP & Torque. So either I improve the driving experience or make my shit look dope. I hear skunk2 springs give it a nice drop ~2in. +they're cheap. I'll sleep on it....

On the rev lag I heard the re-flash with Hondata takes care of it too.

I just bought new suspention this week. Went to a coilover set up, but I still have my springs. There Eibach. Love them. BUt when with something else to I could be lower and adjust it. If you want em I'll give you a pretty good deal. I just don't know when I will get wheels to put them on so I can do my alingment and shit.:ballin:

[dan]

Yeah man, I'm interested in those springs smoot. PM me the info and we can make a deal. Are those the ones currently on your ride? Cuz your srop looks kleen. I'll be on stock struts for a while, so i hope the drop's not more than a couple of inches. Hows the ride on those springs? I love the ride of my stock setup, just hate the height. You dont scrape or anything do you? That was so annoying on my teg, and I'd hate to fuckup my sweet header. Wow ^^^ look @ the novel!

Jus one more question... Wouldn't a reflash void my factory warranty?

Yeah they are on my car still. I acutally really like the ride. I dont scrape on anything really. I would only rub a lil bit when I had the Regas (17x8 +35 which was pretty flush) on and when I would dip with momentum going down.

I would look it up on 8thgen about the reflash. I dont know if it does or not.

[dan]

Werd. I'm interested fo' sho! When are you thinkin' about getting rid of these, and how much you looking to get for 'em?
Hit me up!

If you're never gonna put 'em on, just sell 'em to me! ;)

[Kidnkorner]

Since you already have an intake I'd say dump the TBS and if you did the coolant bypass trick you can skip the TB gasket. NST pulley's got my vote.

[dan]

I picked up a TSUDO cat-back from RMS today. It should go nicely with my fujita SRI and strup RH. I should have it on the car by wednesday. I can't wait to open up teh veeetack ;)

*excited!

I think I'll do the bypass this weekend too :thumbup:

[Kidnkorner]

Although not as popular as they once were (99-01), TSudo is a very good brand. Too bad many people believe TSudo is some knockoff brand featured on eBay.

[dan]

It came highly recommended from a few members on 8th civic.com

I thought it was basically a S2 knockoff. I don't care about it being a 'knockoff' brand. It's made of good quality stainless, and has proven on dynos to add in the neighborhood of 6hp to this car. I'm going to put it on tomorrow. I'll see if I can get a vid up of some revving and a flyby :D

[Tmonmon]

Throttle body!

I already picked my mod guys! Picked up a catback.

[dan]

^^they said it was the last one. :(

[josh]

get a super charger or turbo kit and some kpro. the TBS/TBG/IMG is a waste of money so is the pulley kit

[dan]

Gonna keep the warranty in tact for now. I do want some stuff that'll have to wait till that warranty's up. Turbo, cams, reflash...just gotta wait awhile.

[dan]

both help out with throttle responce from what i have heard and give like 3-5 hp.. but i would save that 300 and put it to a proflash :twisted:

[WekSos]

Pulleys!!! I swear by FAR my favorite mod

When I had my 07 TW FA5 I had I/H/E/P/IMG/TBS/TBG x 2/Boomba engine mounts... god I miss that car!

Are you mildly retarded? :hithead:

[berny2435]

save your money and take the car to a AutoX. I pown nubs with ZERO power mods with my car! Last event, I was 16th out of 97. Come be number 98 lol! and yes, that's a challenge to actually use your car.. .

[dan]

Funny you should mention that, i've been wanting to do this for a while. Looks like SO much fun!

[aznboi]

if u ever want the nst pullies ill sell u mine lol
