I own a stick shift 1994 Coupe Accord. I've added the V Tec a $30 ebay muffler and a big wing from Checkers. Any one know what kind of 1/4 times ill be getting at the track?

I was doing 16.9 in 1/4. I was thinking high 15 with all my mods.

I'm really curious how you added V-Tech. Did you just buy a V-Tech phone and put it in the car? And if the wing is big, how can it be aerodynamic? Nothing is more aerodynamic than something, right?

Some calculations:
Stock 1/4 mile is around 17s. The V-Tech phone is extra weight, so that will slow you down. Not sure about the ebay muffler. And the "big aerodynamic" wing will add more drag than driving with the windows open. So I'm figuring somewhere around 19 s.

I was told over at SuperHonda.com that most of the people on this forum were douche bags, and now i've come to find out that this is true(since ive been reading your Kill story section).

Haha. 2 people replied in your thread, and you're assuming that most of the people here are douche bags? If you're calling 2 people "most" then that must mean that there are only 3 people on this forum, which is not true. And no, most people on here aren't douche bags. The truth is, that most people on here don't like cheap ebay stuff and wings, as you described. This forum is performance oriented, and adding a $30 ebay muffler and a big wing will not give you any performance gains. One final thing, "V-Tech" is a phone brand. Vtec is the "Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control System".

Sure, go back to your other site. People there don't even know what they're talking about.

For example, that kill story that you linked to:
We turn off to an empty street....85mph comes up....We hit about 115mph....then begins weaving in and out of traffic

WTF? He just said it was an empty street, and now there's traffic. And yes, I'm sure that he would be weaving in and out of traffic while doing 115 mph. Great kill story.

One thing I almost forgot: did you even bother reading the rules?

lol first off man its VTEC! Variable Valve Timing and life Electronic Control, not VTECH=thats a phone company how do i know? cause i have a one right here. anyway, im not quite sure wat the quarter mile times of a stock Accord are anymore since its been a year since ive owned one, but vtec will help a little bit, a muffler wont because u need a full exhaust to get any "real" gains and a wing , if its real big, will cause drag.

Dang guys cut him some slack. He's a newby yes, so answer him honestly not rudely. As for the thread writer...
In the HT community we are very direct and do not respond well to not well thought out questions. This is one of them.
You are not going to get much increase with the mods you have. Accords are heavy no matter how you slice it. You are going to spend a lot more than $30 to make a fast car.
I'm curious to know how you added Vtec. Do tell! In any case you will need to take your car to the track to find out your cars 1/4 mile times. There are many variables that will determine your time. If you can not drive (not your opionion of your driving but reality) you will go slower than the next guy with the exact same mods. Do you have after market wheels? How's your clutch? What kind of condition is your motor in? You have to realize this is a 12 year old car. You can go fast but it's not cheap.

BTW a wing doesn't make your car fast... AT ALL! Take it off, sell it, and use the money to buy real performance parts. You will likey get more props with it off the car.
Sleepers are the best. IMHO.

This right here is proof enough.

And this one tells you where the troll came from, and the link pretty much gives the reason why he's doing it.

This post confirms where he came from, but also shows how much of a moron he his since he starts to make fun of Hondas yet goes back to a Honda forum.

Stop taking this thread seriously.
