Please DO NOT Post In The General Section

From this point on until otherwise briefed, posting in the general section of Performance Tech is prohibited. The only thing to remain here will be the stickies. We would just delete this section, but that would cause unintended results.


The majority of the threads created can appropriately be placed in one of the Performance Tech sub-forums or Technical; and the posting of them here is detrimental to the activity of said forums. If you have any questions about where you need to place your thread PM me or one of the other mods.


For the most part you all have caught on without this post, but there have been a few habitual offenders that forced me to say this.


Everyone will get a couple of warnings from here on out, after that I just start deleting threads.

Again if you have any questions, PM me or one of the other mods.

            I saw them use one on horsepower TV (on spike) on a civic HB. With a catback exhaust and that, they gained like 5HP. I'd just go with a regular CAI or short-ram.

              I saw that same episode... which was a rerun BTW...

              but with that frount mount intake and an airmass header and exhaust.. they gained a total of 10 whp verified on a dyno...bringing the total whp of that civic from 87whp tp 97 whp... bleh... those were nice shiny crome hubcaps on that car too...

              They also touched on the frount mount intake's only real benefit... the ram air effect... I remember some independent tests a long time ago showing that you can ever so slightly pressurize your intake charge using them... like .06-.08 psi...

              Personally... I'd never use it on the street... but would definitely consider it on an SCCA or roadrace track only car...
