noobs learn from the best, i guess.
sounds like a good amount of work. i did some work this past weekend, car drives better.
yah, you drive a CL. and it's probably stock. :gheylaugh:
and no, not in his case, he has lots of mods that would benefit from a real dyno or street tune much more than knocking your dizzy with a hammer.
and there wasn't any bitch talk, you quoted me with some :ghey: remark and then went after the fact that i dont happen to drive a CL. like i told the other guy, go read about intakes and do some searching. then knock people.

So what if I'm new. i fail to see where this gives you some sort of right to be a dick to me? I'm plenty knowledgeable about cars and aside from our little nit pick here, I've done nothing but positively contribute to the community.
You decided to take a joke and turn it into something more. Seeing as you cant just let it be, why cant we just call this little tussle to a halt before someones ego gets further trampled upon. deal?

OKKKKKK GUYSSSS stop getting ur panties in a bunch! Shadowbar, if you're on here long enough you'll get used to Dicorp's demeanor, that's just how he is. He's got good info but sometimes people take offense to his straightforward cutting comments which can feel insulting.
As for a tune, that's definitely on my list to get done by July. I just have to get an exhaust and a real header, then tune is next. LOL @ hitting dizzy w/a hammer, who does that? I just noticed mine was adjusted like it was pulled completely forward towards the front of the car, so i unbolted it and set it back a little bit. Either way the car drives much better with fresh components and plugged leaks, i'm probably going to buy an exhaust and have a local shop street tune it for 100, then save up for headers and a real dyno tune

there's a couple of shops around the tristate area that have Dyno days if your into tuning it yourself?
like heavily discounted dyno runs.. I cant think of any shops off the top of my head, but I see ads for them on craigslist sometimes.

What bothers me is that you came out of nowhere, insulting/making comments about my current car, while having done next to nothing personally to yours or contributed anything to the forum, except some pics of of models for the rambling guys to to.

ok, how many times need I say it was a joke? a motherfucking joke. i have plenty of respect for the prelude and the h22. if i could afford it, id do an h22 swap hands down.
Next to nothing? considering ive had my CL for a little over 2 months now and i got laid off my previous job not to long ago, id like to think im doing pretty well. in my experience, people don't buy cars then mod them completley in the course of two months? Ive got I/H/E/ plugs + wires and am working on more. but now I ask... what else can I do to my f23 aside from FI? aside from a mega squirt and a tune. not much. springs will be in shortly, and im keeping my stockies.
As for doing next to nothing for the forum.. I feel as though ive contributed well to both performance and aesthetic modification threads. given my opinions and asked for feedback. am i wrong in thinking that that is what a forum is for? your right ive only been here a month, and youve been here for three years. in the bigger scheme of things, your twenty four, I'm nineteen. I would think that someone older then me would at least be able to detect sarcasm and or a joke instead of being so insecure that you lash out in self defense before you fully understand the statement being made.

this is what started it all. sure my first statement was a little 'cutting', but BlackAck has made it perfectly clear that this is what should happen and everyone has agreed..
unless im colorblind, I do believe that's red text right? and i know im new, but Red = Sarcasm. Sarcasm, for the most part = joke.

Seriously, STFU or GTFO. Its getting annoying. Arguement is over.
Powdercoating is nice, but if u can spraycan it and get it to look good, then its fine. You're probably gonna have to redo it a while later though

no, im broke. plus it had clearance issues relative to the ground ( preludes are pretty low with even a modest drop) and fitment issues with the crossmember, making the install a pain. not to mention it lacked
thanks for chiming in

....lacked what? Is that the one that they had to notch the crossmember to get it to fit even though the advertisement says u dont?

ok, again, here were the issues.
1) limited ground clearance...like below oil pan
2) Crossmember modification required
3) 02 Sensor bung in a bad location
4) no flex pipe.
needless to say, lots of work required to make it work. but 7-11 whp sounds nice.

I am so sick of this shit, shadowbar, you have NOT been on here long enough to be starting this shit. You also posted your wheels in 10 different threads, and dicorp, you shouldn't be egging him on. I'm locking this thread up for now because I'm tired of it. When you fuckers grow up, I may consider reopening. God I feel like I should be getting paid to babysit on here, this is ridiculous, when the argument is over it's over, I shouldn't have to be here to step in and say stop the argument. You guys need to give it up. Shadowbar, consider this an official warning
