Re: Scariest Hyundai Owner
I have a 97 tib and i don't know how accurate a gtech pro is but i ran 14.87. I tried 5 times and i've got consistent times of 14.987 to 15.04. I wonder how fast my tib would be if i haven't sold my zex. Is the 1.8 v.s 2.0 tiburons that much of a difference in time. I believe you shopuld break into the 15's.Hopefully real-engineering could do something our crappy ecu's so i could break into the mid 14's.

CAI, 4-1 headers, 2.25 exhaust, gt cam, airram, 61mm bbtb, clutchmasters lightweight flywheel, stage 3 spec clutch, eibach full suspension kit, unorthodox pulley, and much more cosmetics

Re: Poll: Riciest mod on a car
Well i don't know how accurate my gtech is but i've beaten a celica gt-s and an acura typeS but not the new 210hp just the 200hp. The airram, bbtb, gtcam, clutch, and flywheel made a HUGE DIFFERENCE. Before those mods my car still felt slow with cai, headers, and exhaust.

and i thought it was higher</div>
yes.. each honda motor is different... but it doesnt kick in that late (6800) for sure.. or even past 6000...
was the GT-S auto? even if its stick then it musta been a crappy driver.. a GT-S is pretty much as fast as a type-s , its a drivers race.. except the fact that the GT-S is a harder car to race than a type-s is.. and also if its a 2002 GT-S that could also be the problem..

Re: 4-1 header
Yeah the GTS's are quick cars, they aren't fast, but they're quick. The VVT on those is pretty sick too man, I think it hits harder than the VTEC does. Almost like an extra level on the gas pedal or something.
