Es techniques is an awesome muffler
suspension is all on u. Do u want slammed/no comfort or lowered with some comfort?


Stock is for people that want stock car. For some people our car is our canvas.

There is absolutely no reason in hell he needs to be modifying the exhaust on a 80whp single cam...quite frankly as hard as he tries in that department, the car will not be any "cooler".

I can actually see why someone would want to modify the stock suspension for more comfort on these cars. They go over railroad tracks and speedbumps much the same way as a go kart. I live in an area with a lot of railroad tracks and every time I hit a rough one I think to myself, "Damnit, I'm buying a softer shock and suspension kit one of these days!"

LOL such a smart ***.

IT's true though. There's no reason to waste money on an exhaust with a low powered machine. You'd be wasting you're money.

Purchase a D16z6 or something with VTec.

The suspension I agree with you. I'm starting to get sick of my ride. I think the previous owner put lowering springs on stock shocks, because they are useless.

Browsing through your post history, I'm really not sure how you can be serious about anything you post.

RTFS.

well the exhaust really doesnt depend on what motor you have cause its bent for the shape of the car. and hey man if you wanna run an exhaust on your car more power to you, build how you like ur the one paying for it. but i run a greddy tic on my sol (discontinued) which sucks cause its an awesome pipe, but im sure any good name brand pipe will do good on it.

...its a d15. no power. no vtec. not even 100 hp or tq. with two people in it you'd be almost faster running. i've owned one.

adding an exhaust would literally just make it louder. plenty of I/H/E dynos on d16's that net maybe 10hp.

now i could see suspension. just for a ride quality. koni/gc.

when and if you ever make a build thread for this boosted slammed dream we can talk about exhaust.

How about this? List what mods were done to the engine NOW. You should be able to do that off the top of your head.

Not that I don't believe you, because I don't, but anyone can ****** a picture of a dyno off of the net easy.

Let's just say you made 121, who cares a Prius will be on your bumper. A minivan w/a V6 (mom's late for her Dr. Appointment)will probably overtake you on the onramp and you'll be bouncing rev limiter!
