Went to an empty place and had a go at it: He was about a car and a half up because we had started at 20 miles per hour and he pulled untill I finshed 3rd. Did not catch him. I'm thinking my car should be a little faster than, because that he has an ebay intake and N1 muffler. Could it be because my car is untuned, or maybe he messed up on my valve job? </TD></TR></TABLE>

no you should have lost...your car sucks almost as much as your english....

mufflers are not a big deal, what size piping do you have?

hp anything sucks, so those headers are crap.....

you didnt even tell us what kind of car or engine this is....

Lets see now...you look in the newspaper for a new car and see two cars:

- Acura NSX, $70k
- SC'd geo, $1k

I'm guessing that you would grab the second one, right? Same kind of thing for less cost means it's exactly the same, right?

Did you tune the cams? You can't do any engine mods without tuning. It's a waste of money and a risk to blow your engine. Also, check out spell check, or go back to school. Some of the people that frequent this site are nerds for grammar. It makes Honda-Tech classy.

Actually buddy dont bash before you know for a fact its junk. Ive been on a 200+ whp tune with my obx stage 1 cams for about 7-8k miles now with no problems at all. This guy probably screwed something up with the install,timing,or not tuned.
