yeah, but there was nothing he could do about it. And I think she was trying to make fun of him (like the rest of us do).

saw it at Warrens on Sunday when i picked up my front end. i gotta say it's pretty damn cool, especially the rain gutter skirts. i didn't even know they were rain gutters until it was pointed out and i took a closer look at them.
workin' the Home Depot. workin' it.

Yes they are rain gutters but you got to give the guy credit cuz they look alright and they're dirt cheap. I think over 90% of the ppl couldn't tell they're rain gutters until you tell them.

Yup they surely are!!! Pretty darn good "replica" I might say! hehehe

:thumbsup: Looking good Leo......... I guess you won't be doing any fine tuning until you get the other turbo in huh?? Either way it's looking deadly, especially with the scoops in the hood.. Are you going to plexi those or use an actual scoop/s?? :bigpimp: :bigpimp: :thumbsup:

It actually looks like shit!!! hahahah, I just made those cuz the hood wouldn't close! haha, but I am going to make a hood scoop that will funnel air in and out of the engine bay! It gets freaking hot under there man like you wouldn't believe.!! So it actually serves an actual purpose!! But I'd hate to be the moron that touched the turbo!!! hahahaha

Yes, that's right, he actually LOST hp with his setup.

Hey, I once saw a civic on hp tv and it had 89whp....coincidently I saw another civic of the same year kick the shit outta a 5th gen lude!
Yah, you're right about losing hp, but I think it's more like 50 whp! and as for butt dyno, let's be honest.....would you trust something that has been bagged on and had the shit pounded out of? Neither would I. It's like relying on a G-tech meter that has been beat on and then drenched in fluids! The results become a bit deceiving especially the way your Butt Dyno has been abused!!!
