How so?.. Just because my car won't see the track doesn't mean anything.. Clear Image Automotive has excellent parts.

How do I sound like a ricer..?

i wasn't bullshitting when i said i'm done. mod your car to accumulate a list and maybe learn something in the process. i mod my car because i love putting in the work that makes it faster. i mod to drive. my problem is i've been outdriving the car lately. every mod on my car save for my tune was installed by me including the n2o kit i sold to zach. i do this **** cause it's what i do. and i'm damn good at it. so be cool.

Where did I say that?.. I'm just doing bolt-ons and a tune.. Where are you getting this from? Yes, I want what will give me the most power on the street.. It will NEVER see the track, so why would I build it like it will?

I'm not trying to accumulate anything, I am here solely to learn.. I love putting work into my car too, and love the gains from a new part. I also mod to drive, I drive my car, a lot. I commute fairly far each and every day. I want power on the street, not a track car.. I'm doing bolt-ons and a tune, as I've reiterated many times. I fail to see where the problem lies here? We disagree on oil..

philosophy is deeper then oil and how you approach it.

so anyway i sell valvoline synpower. its good **** and i'd recommend it if you use mobil 1 or castrol syn for daily driving. and do your own goddamn oil changes.....to absoulutely no one in particular. it's just the best oil change for the buck period.

I think anyone who is about to buy a part should gather as much information, and listen to others about their opinion, as to form a decision.

Also, a lot of the **** I posted was from people like Maven, Vince at Trifecta, Dan at Clear Image Automotive. You know, just people who know a little bit.

And it's spelled "pathetic" you stupid ****.

BYE!

I've ran it a few times, nothing about it drove me away to never buy it again, but what did it do for you?.. Or lack there of.

the damn color once its was all used up. didn't look like my oil should have, being changed at 3k.

so i wonder what kind of head i should get? gonna have to do some shopping. i'm looking for modest power but significant gains over stock. i'm thinking an extra 120hp or so should do it.

what fits my needs?

100 shot and hopes and dreams made 223whp and 243trq on my 2.2. Is that enough or are you looking for more?

Well you do launch on slicks man. that has to take some abuse. Another used downpipe isnt much though.

That wasnt just a 100 shot fyi. Goals are nice but I would rather have a efficent boosted car at the end of the day. Not saying 250whp isnt efficent but I think its pushing the stock motor way way too far with these ringlands, its a big risk when adding heat to these.
