it must make his CAI breath better?

(as well as looking like he cut a hole in his bumper w/scissors, then highlighted it with a decal)

I zoomed in and it says "Caution 1600 degrees"

whatever that means. maybe he stole it off an aircraft engine or something.

I think that car is pretty nice. I love the wheels and the motor. I thought the hole in the bumper was for a exhaust outlet when maybe he went to the track? :dunno:

Jeesh.... I wouldn't pay more than $3g for a car like that unless I knew the person that built the motor and was sure they knew what they were doing. People don't see to understand that $30,000 worth of mods does nothing to the actual value of the car, in fact, it degrades it.

:werd:

When you see all these mods it means:
1. The car was probably driven pretty hard
2. If they didn't know what they were doing, that motor's screwed!

Much rather buy a stock car driven by Grandma and do all the mods myself (which is what my plan is :thumbup: )

I know the guy who owns/built this Accord and can honestly say his Accord is a thing of beauty. Gotten to ride in it a couple times now, and it's easily the fastest 4-door Accord I've seen. He knows his stuff too; he's done quite a few swaps, including mine. Hate to see him get rid of his Accord, but I'm sure his next project will be all the better. If you have any questions for him directly, let me know and I will see if I can get any response out of him.

Just talked to him, he told me he would post a video taken from one of his dyno runs later tonight. I'll put the link here when it is ready...
