when you think it is 10 hp difference it is actally maybe 2. but yes try driving around with no hood at this temp... whenever i went to the night drags i ran no hood, no intake, open TB, huge poower
Yea that is normal.

i would think that the power you would gain with an open hood you would loose in wind drag.
but i could see why you wouldnt. becasue at speeds 0-50 [the better part of a race] you dont have that high of a drag coefficent cause you arnt going that fast. you just need power quick to get off the line and down as fast as possible
see what if you had a switch and ur hood slid open and then when you reached high speeds..you could have the hood slide back on...you know...that would be cool..
Don't be such a coke monkey :lolQuote:

Man it was cold out, and I put a whole bunch of stickers on my car and I could feel a huge difference in HP!!!! :D
You can mod the hood to tip up a bit on the windshield side. I have seen it done to many civics and rexes. It's nothing new.

not to be a snoob, but bs post like this should be in offtopic from now on.
But yeah, you def feel the difference in the way ur car pulls when its freezin outside :D, no wonder ppl get into accidents :D
Travis, ever tried running ur car with no intake at all?? Thats what i call power baby. Once u eliminate all the resonace off the intake pipe, ur zoomin baby.Quote:
