well a new honda shop opened up perdy close to my house and i went to check it out. after asking the guy for parts and hearing the same response as everywere else he says let me see your car so i go and show um my car and the guy was kinda estonished that i got as many parts as i did. he tells me that it reminds him about how it use to be before every1 started selling honda stuff and that he wants to help me out.

the guy there seems to know his chit and told me that he will try to Alter a honda or eclipse skunk 2 or Aem IM for my car. he says he will try and if he can make it work it will cost me about 300-350$ considering the intake is about 280$ new i think thats a good deal. he also says that he will try to get a aem fuel rail to fit aswell but i'll wait for IM to work first.

the guy wants no money down so this should be a win or walk away as if i never came in kinda thing so hopefully he can get this to work. you guys have any advice or know any problems he will run into on doing this?

Sounds good mate, but like faith said, make real sure it's clear that there's no money unless you're happy with the work.

SilentSecret, I used to live in Cali, if that is where you are from. And they are real shady out there when it comes to cars man. If I was you, I would really watch out. I think that dude is going to try and get you. Hopefully you did not sign anything.

i'm suppose to go to his shop on wensday so he can take pics and measurements. i'll make it perfectly clear to him that there will be no money unless it works. i never sign anything first soo i'm all good. hopefully he can get it to work maybe even make 2 so i can sell one.
