there is a rev limiter for a reason.
so people don't destroy their motors sitting at stop lights...
the car is doing that to protect itself from you.
you have an 05.
probably with the original suspension... when you bought it.
and you swapped the springs for S Techs.
chances are you will be blowing a damper soon.
I suggest you get yourself some new dampers to pair up with
your new springs to avoid blowing an OEM one soon.
and post some pics of your ride!

jonnyntech... Can you post a picture like that with both the fogs and the HID low-beams on? I would like to get those fogs you have... they're sweet. But I'm wondering if I'd like the yellow with the blueish HID color. Does it mix well?
Anyway, what are those fogs and where did you get them?
And how did you get the fogs on without the low-beams? Mine doesn't do that.

Nice for DRLs. I was thinking of this this morning, I wouldn't mind an easy re-wiring so that the fog light switch would put on my fogs regardless of the parking/headlight switch position. (sigh) I'll bet the switch logic is inside the OEM switch somewhere.

I've seen somewhere on here where people have done the fog light mod. You have to hack some wires in the steering colum and right outside the fuse box under the hood. Basically powering up the fog light circuit off the parking lights instead of the headlights. The down side is that the indicators on the dash that the fog lights are on don't work anymore. There is a DIY out there somewhere, though.

Okay, this thread has some good info in it about the fog light mod. It's a bit long. Skip the first set of directions (the ones that say "Warning, these are the not the directions for the TSX) and keep on going. There's some really good pictures going into the second page.

it work pretty good the wiring ain't that hard really. you got to plug into the fuse box from under and another plug go into the accessory plug in the interior fuse box on the driver side. here the instruction similiar to it: http://www.pl-us.com/ACURA/JDM_FogLights.pdf
