Great site! wish I knew about it six months ago!

I've had my 01' Silver Type S since Aug of last year. My mods so far are 5% window tint, Razo Pedals, 18*7.5 Konig Toxxins with the Nt555 from Nitto in a 235/40. After losing to a 330ci by two car lengths last weekend I'm in the search for more hp. I ordered a drop in filter by K&N. I know thats very lil HP. My questions are: Has anyone had any problems with the mods? & Which mods should I do? I already have a Apex Vtec contoller but the shop I bought it from said wait till you do all your mods and tune it on the dyno. Is this true? Thanks for all your help.....

Welcome to the site!

Try out an AEM or Xephyr2K cold air intake. It will add a little HP but it will give your car an awesome growl! Like above, go for the headers if you have the money ($1000) or you can try pulley's that were just released for the CL-S. Check out www.autocarparts.com the guy that works there is great! Tim always answers email really quickly (given the time difference and stuff) and is very helpful. Also, he has the best prices around!

Welcome! I bet there are hundreds of potential new members who could greatly benefit from this website. I know I have...immensely...thanks guys.

Where are those business cards? I would leave them in the waiting room of the Acura dealership or tacked onto the bulletin board for the employees to see.....

That's funny isn't it?

No, the Canadian Government is okay, just fine. As you probably saw, I'm into PocketPC. A friend asked from a map of Ottawa to download into his iPaq and I sent him back a pic to make sure the boundary (how far out and away from town) I should include. See: http://discussion.brighthand.com/sho...threadid=16030

But if I do disappear, it's because the RCMP paid a visit.

It's hard to get anything done at work. And when I do actually get things done at work, I feel like I've missed out on important stuff here. hehe...

What's great about this site is that it is always going at all hours of the day except the wee hours of the night. You can always come here and read all about it....
