    My sweet Honda in action (video)

    Hey guys. Thanks to this forum my car is working again. It has more power than before, and it sounds great. I thought I'd post a little clip of what it sounds like, since I've gotten a couple compliments on my exhaust. Now, the intake and the exhaust make beautiful music together.

    http://www.teamcaf.org/upload/honda/...ored-indeo.avi (Otherwise, 4.42 MB)

    Also, here you can see my billet aluminum oil filler cap, my PCV breather, and my brand spankin' new fuel filter (I bypassed the main one and ran new lines).
    What do you think?

    I am considering popping the air cleaner element out the hood, but until then, no intake.

    The usual, nothing special. lol
    No intake, punched out EFE plate, removed all emissions, removed cruise and choke, #25 and #2 are both getting manifold vacuum (more advanced timing? I don't know), aftermarket fuel filter (bypassed stock one), Flowmaster 2.25" catback, umm lots of stickers

    Three cheers to the person who can name the song in the background without googling the lyrics.

    Even with these wider tires and bigger rims, my car will chirp them first to second easily with the clutch cold. My clutch is going so I'll shift quickly and it'll slowly engage when it's warm, as in the video. Before the clutch started going and with my 185 width Pirellis, I could lose traction into second and chirp them into third.

    lol man, your dialup is slow. Well hey, to make it worth it, just tell yourself that you helped get that car back on the road, as riced out as it may be!

    Edit: I just watched the video again and it doesn't appear that the clutch is slipping much. I felt it when I shifted, though.
