Default Got My Car Back!!!!

I just drove my car from the dealership to here... finally, 5 days short of 5 damn months.

I can't wait to get on the highway.... It's really going to suck having to break in this new engine though :naughty:

for those of you that're wondering why it's been gone, search for a thread called "Pics of my 2000 SI". Basically honda tried to screw me out of my warranty after the engine blew so i did soem stuff to get them to fix it.


WHEEEEEEE!!!! Party time all weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did your vacuum look normal on your boost gauge?

I'm pretty sure one of his pistons cracked as a factory defect, but the dealership blamed it on him saying he over-revved it... am I close??

They said i over-revved it or my AEM CAI caused the damage... piston cracked.

I didn't have to pay for it... and about the vaccum looking normal, i dunno, since some ****ers ganked my gauges while the car was at the dealership...

I did find a dent on the right fender, scratches on the left fender, driver door, trunk, and rear bumper that are real noticable and were not there before. Plus, at low rpm's, one of the cylinders stops firing sometimes. I'm prolly gonna go to the dealership today.
