    Let the guy tune his car I'am sure he could run 15's without spraying after some tuning mabey 14's with spraying not many people that drive 3g's could say that.
    Stop bench racing and pick up a wrench

    I know my spelling sucks and I suck with computers deal with it.

    It's just a matter of buying the right stuff. I'm sure my car will be hauling even better when I get a custom cam and nos.

    I am sure mikes accord could run 14's if he sprayed too.

    ITS ALL ABOUT TUNING PEOPLE.

    You can't expect him to just barely finish putting it back together and run at its best..


    And just to let you guys know...... tuning is where you spend the most cash. Especially if you get it tuned using a lambda meter.

    Yes but you have experience. The rest of us have to go by gut instinct and thats usually wrong. The track is a good way but hard to duplicate the same exact takeoff. Whats left......... dynos which usually run about $100 an hour. Even then they aren't completly accurate. After that tuning with lambda meter which is very expensive.


    Its just like everything else, if you can do it yourself its cheapest. Most of us are left with the little bit of knowledge we have to tune with.

    But you are correct it isn't that expensive if you know what your doing. For the rest of us prepare to shell out some money for someone to help you that has experience.
