What augy meant was that if you use the period (if you couldn't figure out what he was hinting at) then people on the board could understand instead of reading through a bunch of half constructed sentences, all the while trying to comprehend and help you. Break up the sentences with proper punctuation and I bet you'd get some more responses. I myself don't think a cat is the same as a glasspack, and that WILL sound like ass on a honda. leave those for trucks.

o man. i've gone through this one before. well, compliments of websters dictionary, i got this!

Pronunciation: 'fOr-&m, 'for-
Function: noun
Inflected Form(s): plural forums also fo·ra /-&/
Etymology: Latin; akin to Latin foris outside, fores door -- more at DOOR
1 a : the marketplace or public place of an ancient Roman city forming the center of judicial and public business b : a public meeting place for open discussion c : a medium (as a newspaper) of open discussion or expression of ideas
2 : a judicial body or assembly : COURT
3 a : a public meeting or lecture involving audience discussion b : a program (as on radio or television) involving discussion of a problem usually by several authorities

now it is for open discussion correct? ok well where does it say it's supossed to be helpful? I DONT mean to be mean but you're not always gonna get help in here. you're gonna get alot of one sided and biased opinions. it does say that it's basicly a pub for open discussion. im sorry that my response didnt help. and if i hurt your feelings, well sorry again. i was just trying to give you a little advice. and apparently you took it the wrong way. i guess at this point, well all i can say is, good luck with your exhaust setup.

ok well 1st things 1st... dont start dissing people when you dont know the half of whats going on. half of the technicians out there cant spell to save their life. im a prime example. and in reality, well they're damn good techs, and could probably fix anything out there. just because we're not spelling b superstars doesnt mean we cant work on cars or be some of the best tuners out there. second of all why are you sporting that civic? man that car has problems. first id check the intake where it connects to the intake manifold. looks like it's sitting funny. it's also a cheap ass brand. did you get the steel wheels with it? well if you didnt, id highly suggest that you sell those and get a set of em. pls! those things are hidious. and you might wanna consider in buying a new cluster gauge. ya know one with a friggen tach on it. and as for the sound system, well it's not all that but it's something. hope you have a decent alarm. o wait that wouldnt even be good enough. get some security on the damn thing. and next time, well think twice before you diss. and put some time and though into a post next time. 1 liners dont cut it.
