serious LOL factor IMO

so my buddy has an f23 accord with headers exhaust intake plugs and wires.. we;ve had a couple of 50 mph pulls on the highway just to compare the CL to the accord (and so i could embarass his slushbox) but now he says he can pull me no problem... thanks to this...

I laughed in his face.. in all honesty, what could it possibly do? plausible gains? ive seen these things around, but never knew much about them. theyre obviously doo-doo, but how doo-doo are they.

Tell him to get a F1 type spoiler. It adds a good 25whp. It'll be a win for sure.

I just noticed in the ad, "the unit draws 3amps" That's a 36w motor. My RC boat uses a 1kw motor, what the kind of crap motor is this? Looks like it must be an A/C blower. I guess he could just wire it up in the car to turbo his A/C vents.

Oh and the dyno graph, it's not even labeled, it a focus z-tec vs. a pooper

Tell him to get it, but convince him to get two.

lol his accords actually pretty clean (aside from the under glow..). he doesn't know much about mechanics though.. hes trying to learn. his theory is that his car will 'breathe' better.

Sure its only a 3 amp motor but think of it. How hard could it be to push air?
I told him to get it dyno tested and then come back to me.

It is your job to teach him how to properly modify his car mechanically before he shames the honda world.
