I'm not particularly interested in the 5-8whp gain from not having them. For me it's more about the oil pressure and assurance of less bearings, belts, and other moving parts to break. The drawback to them is the vibration that will ensue, especially since I'd like to get Innovative mounts too.

The stock F23 IM is good for me. It's one of the best IM's among the F-series for boosted setups because of the long narrow runners and ginormous plenum. Plus, those are both conducive attributes for a lower power band like mine.

So are there ever any meets or gatherings in the area? I know I kinda live outside where most do but would be kinda fun to take a drive and see a new part of the state.....maybe some thing in Columbia or even up in Wilmington?

Where I moved from there are events at the track, car shows, meets, forum gatherings every weekend during spring/summer/fall. It dosent seem like any of that goes on here in MB area but maybe in another part of the state?

Hey guys, where would one go to find a replacement "harness"/speaker lead plug for a Eclipse cd player? The one I have is no longer made by Eclipse, and no I havent contacted them yet, and I am unable to find any sources through google. The plug/pigtail in the upper right hand corner is to what I am referring:



That is also the model number I have as well.

TIA ladies

Those might be universal between brands. Looks very similar to the one on the Alpine and Kenwood units I have installed in my cars.

I was thinking that as well but I was unable to find anything in a google search where one could be purchased. May have to call radio shops around town which I hate as most are tool bags and have no inclination to help people

Yea I still have the CRV.....I tried to sell it but not that hard LOL I would still like to sell/trade it for a 4 door EK. I love my CRV but I just drive so many damn miles for work I need the mpg of a single slammer.


Still have my hatch also...and a WRX lol I was thinking about selling the hatch also but for the amount I would get for it its just not worth it + there is alot of sentimental value. Plus it would kill me to sell to some punk kid. Im in the process of placing big orders to Honda and going to do a some what of a restore on the car so that should be fun!
