This isn't products that don't exist....

 

thats debatable, but regardless, i am true to the topic in saying it doesnt work.

 

How could chrome ic pipes not work? Its a pipe! Hehe...

 

aww man come on, dont hate on the turbonetics stuff, i like turbonetics !

 

I disagree on this one. There is no substitute for good tuning, but the J&S units are excellent tuning tools for people who don't own a dyno.

"Venom injectors - they just suck at what they do"

Hmmm... I give my custom 320cc Venom injectors some of the credit for my good luck, results and lack of engine damage. I'd also ditto sonny on the J&S.

Stuff that doesn't work:

- EBC Green brake pads
- Non stock fuel rails
- Fuel line magnets
- Anti-theft devices

 

*looks down at Hot Wires* "****"

 

Actually they do, I have one. 97 EX

 

wtf
i bought the one in the catalog and it does not fit i called them up and they did not have another model. my friend had the same problem, he had to buy a kit to mod his oem one. i dont know what to say. what motor are you running. we both have a d16y8

 

the out side of the pipe rust and peals the inside will rust really bad.

 

I think turbonetics works well.

 

just wait, you will become a turbonetics victom

 

Greddy/TRUST internal wastegate spring.. my boost line looks like a rollercoaster ride

 

I'm with Sonny on this one. Dyno tuning is great to obtain max hp/tq with the balanced a/f, timing. etc... However, max hp doesn't mean the engine will never knock. I think the J&S is a very useful device.

 

what are you talking about?

i will have a greddy / mitsu turbo with internal WG...

 

i lost a otor when it just fell apart inside the combustion chamber...

 

Damn Venom 400 module. Wasted 300 bucks and didn't see any improvement in my damn 1/4 time

 

Good one greg on the venom injectors.

 

Crane ignitions
My wallet

 

I use a crane ignition with great success. Actually Ive seen 3-4 msd 6a's go out but never a crane hi-6.....Mike

 

Let's add the almighty G-Tech on that list . It told me I was running a 15.7@98mph at 8psi on an integra ls. I know my car is not as slow as stock

 

Might be right hehe. No traction?

My Gtech has been pretty darn accurate.

 

Your car might not be...you might be though.

Add to the list:

Matsonic Motherboards
Check valves using the wrong sized T's and blowing out 2 check valves while sitting in traffic on 441 during rush hour and having to get out of the car in the middle of the lane, plug them back in and take off like I'm cool (This actually hasn't happened yet, but if it ever does...)
Right Guard sport stick (The clear gell is good, but the stick doesn't agree with me)
Volcano 7 Cooling fans (At least not on my Athlon 1500 XP)

This is the older Gtech, first one made I think. Your right, my Yokohama all season tires dont hold up to a launch . If I launch at 4500 rpms which is when the turbo starts to spool, it will shoot to redline and I wont be going very fast. Then when I shift to second it spools at 4000rpms, but the Rpms dont drop right into boost so it bogs. I raced a C5 vette from a 40 punch to 120mph and was right at his rear bumper Who knows, maybe the vette's running a 15 too!

Im going to the track next weekend, so we will find out the truth
