When they email me the graph I'll post it up for you guys. They didn't use a pipe sniffer for o2 readouts.
Respectable numbers then. I run 183whp/127tq with the skunk 2 intake manifold, ported tb, skunk stage 1 cams, and a shitty 2.5" intake that chokes the whole thing.

How bad is it to run your car without a thermostat? It may take your car longer to reach temp. but is there any other things I would need to worry about?

Should be $36. And trust me, you want to spend $36 on the acura stuff (cheap grease heats and expands your boots on the track...and I know you track your car).

Does $36 include two boots, snap rings or clamps to close them, and the grease to pack them with?

alright, just got off the phone with Acura and here's the info:

Outer - $36.82
Inner (no longer sold as set) - $21.70 for boot & grease
$8.98/small clamp
$11.06/large clamp
Dynamic Damper - $44.76/ea

dynamic damper isn't necessary if you already have it on the axles...forgot to ask if the prices are for one or both axle

Going to a Nascar event was sick, so loud, so fast... nothing compared to watching it on tv. I recommend it to anyone and everyone.

I've been to Charlotte and Atlanta for Nascar races. They are enjoyable as hell live! And they let you bring your own beer don't they? I was too young the times I went to remember right. It will definitely get you watching more of it on tv though, that's for sure!
