The spacers have been proven to do little to nothing on our small honda motors. Pcola, I am sorry!!!

This section is for forced induction. Your still all motor .

Guess I can see why your moniker is "Grumpiest". I am anything but a spammer and all my posts today come from experience installing these items I have mentioned. I include such tidbits as dyno figures as I am an aerospace engineer and like these details. You just might want to take a look at the photos that I have just uploaded today of these mods before jumping to conclusions and showing your inexperience.

As I am a "new kid on the block" I am just now setting up my entry into this forum. By the by, this is a sister forum to the Honda Accord Forum, on which I have been for several years as well as other forums on the subject.

This isn't even remotely related to forced induction....
So why even make this post in here?

And this isn't a sister forum to anything, it's a standalone forum

And your parts, if debating a turbo setup, will be pointless and unusable

And why do I feel like he's trying to promote products?

As noted, I am not a spammer or promoting anything, just imparting some knowlege per my own installations. Jeez, sorry I put this on the wrong forum, so have re-posted as also noted.

As for sister site, go to www.hondaaccordforum.com and you will see a very similar website construction. As well, some of these comments on my installations magically appeared on that website, so there IS some kind of connection.

Post your dyno to back up these claims then. Otherwise it's all bullshit. Right now you're sounding like you're advertising and others seem to agree.

I will be happy to post what dyno figures I have for the components or quote their e-mails on the subject. If you read AND comprehended my original post, I stated that I will be doing a dyno run this Friday and will post those results as well in the dyno section, keeping in mind those measurements will be cumulative and not on a per part basis and before any fine tuning tweaks.

If I was advertising, I would be quoting prices and stating vendor addresses, not to mention getting a kickback of some sort, to which I can safely state: NONE OF THE ABOVE!! Have you not ever mentioned in these forums some new part or process done to your ride(s), particularly if they seem to add to your performance characteristics? I was under the impression that these forums were to be able to access information from other members on the experiences they have had, good or bad.

Jeez, lighten up or cut down on your boost a bit, as none of the other forums have exhibited this kind of attitude and they actually seem to appreciate my inputs.

I didn't ask you to post up claims of horsepower gains. I asked you to post up numbers from YOUR dyno runs. Which isn't possible because you don't have any. Stop parrotting media hype.

Just what is your problem? You still cannot comprehend what I posted. I will repeat it so that you just might understand this time:

I will be doing a dyno run THIS FRIDAY 2/15/13 and will post the CUMULATIVE RESULTS when I get them. As for the COMPONENT PARTS, I DO HAVE SOME DYNO REPORTS ON THEM AND WILL POST THEM AS WELL. OR I will provide what info I have on queries to ALL the component manufacturers for that info. I will even post the URL's so that I can prove what I post. I have gone to great pains to obtain what information I could and do not speak "media hype" much less spout unknowlegeable BS as you are.

Why don't you get off your soapbox and do some research yourself, just as I did. You have gone out of your way to prove that you are doing the same thing as other media trolls, trying to elicit repsonses to subjects you obviously know nothing about. So sit tight, don't get your panties in a freekin' wad and above all be patient as I WILL HAVE THE PROMISED INFO NEXT WEEK, OK??? So until then, turn down the boost, OVER AND OUT.
