Come on...

You're a big guy..If I could do it, I know you can.

BTW..I love having hoists and a trans jack now

Mine is sitting at my shop for the winter. I've been driving it daily since April, roughly 80+ miles per day. I've been meaning to tune it for higher boost, and you would think that having my own dyno it would be easy, but the shop has been incredibly busy..and customer's cars take precedence over m...

Nothing too out of the ordinary.

looks like a used clutch.. maybe a little excess heat. Usually rust is a sign of exposure to a decent amount of heat. I see some glazing on the pressure plate. Wear on the disc isn't 'too' bad..

What's the story?

torque is measured, after which hp, or whp is calculated. HP is calculated by using an engine dyno WHP is calculated by using a chassis dyno torque is the work performed, which can be measured. The formula for calculating hp from torque is hp = (torque x rotational speed) / 5252 for example, let's s...

welcome to ITRCA!

WOOT

a few things.. 1.) lack of matching trim on the passenger side vent...why go fake carbon fiber on everything except the passenger vent? I hate that 2.) crappy stereo...just weak 3.) Don't like the ABS, never did. 4.) lack of a hatch release lever. If the battery is dead..or disconnected..guess what....

I just found out when I finished installing the SManager Software for Hondata S300, there are some built-in calibrations and one of them is for Revhard which is my kit. Now, can I use these settings? please help! you probably can to get it to the tuner but I wouldnt roll into boost at all Unless yo...

Thanks for the input Jan, I wish you're my neighbor :D ...downpipe is all good now and it fits perfectly with my new catalytic from SMSP (Dave did a very good job), it's 2.5" 400 cell. Now, I have to figure out this dump tube :? . Just curiosity, why would Revhard sent me two missing link? any...

the stock support bracket for the stock A pipe can be modified to make it fit your DP. I would support it there assuming the flex section is in the same general location as the stock ball and socket connection was. I ended up welding up a little bracket that attached to the stock bracket on the back...

Deatchwerks injectors are top notch. No worries there.

I have a revhard kit on my car. My kit didn't come with instructions either...
it's not that hard..just bolt it on.

search hondatech..I'm sure someone has done a write up.

The timing belt is on the other side of the motor bro...so doing trans work really provides no advantage for changing the timing belt at the same time.

It wouldn't hurt to replace it though...

good luck finding comptech, they're out of business.

thanks

Get it tuned immediately.

good call Rob.. I need to go tune my car by washing it..it should cut through the air better when it's clean...

what does this have to do with tuning?


I say keep it on..it's part of the character and design of the car.

looks good!

thanks

yes it does matter.

I would personally match the size to the compressor outlet, or just a touch bigger.

wow, baby got junk in the trunk..

You could set a beer on that puppy

no offense friend, but you do know that it's just plastic, fake...not real CF right?

I've had my CM3 for a few years, 100plus drag launches and a lot of daily driving.

The engagement is very close to stock and it's kevlar so it wears very well.

I don't have any experience with toda.

best bet is to order a new spring. They are rated by preload

12:1 is a bit much for typical street driving on pump gas. I'd personally go with OEM, or a bit lower compression (lower than 12:1) if reliability is your main concern.

there are already a shitload of threads on here answering that exact question...read up some old threads my friend.
