    Powerband on 2K3 2v 5spd?

    Civic Si?

    Sure. If your "boat" of a cougar can beat me in a straight line or around corners than your boat is better than mine in a straight line and around corners. Hell, a Mini can out corner a Mustang. Is it a better car? Around a corner, yes. Overall? That's personal opinion. What's the...

    Civic Si?

    Civic Si?

    Run him on a track, not a street. I you win, great. If you lose then his car was better. No shame in being beaten by a better car.

    Quite Possibly the Strangest Thing... HELP!

    Drove the car to work, no issues. Drove the car to the gym, no issues. Drove the car home, no issues. My 140mph speedometer showed up and I dis-assembled the dash/gauge pod, swapped speedo's and re-installed everything. Car will turn-over, catch, then die. No idle (or 5 seconds of...

    Okay, we know what doesn't happen... what does happen when you rev in 1st and try to break the tires loose? Does the engine bog? Do you get a lurch then fall flat?

    High Pressure Side Valve Location?

    An engine swap 2 years ago left the system evacuated. I am re-purging, pulling a vacuum and then doing the R-134a conversion. I means a local A/C shop, not me personally.
