Look up 73draggy on YouTube. He built his VR38 engine from a rejected/recalled long block. It's pretty neat with his attention to detail... almost OCD! I'd like to slowly build something like this on the side one day. It won't be anything too crazy - maybe a Stage 1 which can handle 600 whp or so.

At this point at 4k with no problems. My FI 3' exhaust should ship Friday and I will drive to Z1 in atl for a tune.... I stay right around 10psi but have wicked it up a few times... muahahahahaha!!!!

a random bottle thrown in the trunk of a dumbass with a civic, is exactly the wrong thing to do.

Comes with old age and general decrepitude !!!!

nitrous is bad for an engine in the same way that forced induction is bad for the engine. increased torque puts extra stress on internals not designed for those power levels (stock). if this is...

That was the least informative video/article on any performance mod I have ever seen. Not one technical reference as to why it is such a horrible thing to do to your car. I would never put it on...

cnbc for car info? come on now.....

blah blah blah, if nitrous is done safe its not a big deal. its the idiots that strap on a huge shot on a stock motor, install the kit half ***, no pressure gauge, with crap A:F ratios, and spray at...

Add me to the list. At 10k miles my motor went down with TT and oil cooler, dual intercooler setup. Boost was set to 10psi and WHP was just over 500. My check engine light came on and the...
