hey man welcome to the world of building hondas. Use the search function in the upper right hand corner. It has a huge wealth of information and almost anything you have a question about can probably be answered using that.

#1 advice. H-T has almost all the information you will ever need. And most questions will have an answer. Just use the search button and you'll be a happy camper.

Ohio, especially Central Ohio, has an incredible showing of knowledgable Honda "Tuners" (for lack of a better word) that you'll be able to find. Go to http://www.howthingswork.com and read all their **** on engine functionality. Learn it, internalize it. After you have a base, we can teach you anything you need to know.

Welcome to the community. Don't talk to VTEC voodoo

http://www.google.com is your friend. I always recommend taking your car apart right before an important meeting or work...then try and put it back together before it's time to leave (great modivation). Ask questions, learn basic physics, be humble, be open to new ideas, read manuals.

never believe the first answer a person gives you on here.'


More than likely, the answer is wrong...lol. But sooner or later, you will get the right answer. Just talk to the right people, ask good questions, and search.

PM Tom anytime you have a question, I know how much he loves getting bombarded with PM's

My advice, use these 3 valueable resources.
1. Read honda-tech, research questions you want to know, and keep reading HT.
2. PEOPLE! HT may give you answers, but it wont solve all your problems. My local Honda, local honda garage and a few local shops know me. Well at least some of the people. My car would go no where with out the help of these few people.
3. Buy manuals, like Helms.

If you use these resources and not be a dumb about it (use commen sense) you'll learn alot and become a resource for others also.
