Tell it straight or fuck off, Xephyr.

And don't try to pull the "who me?" shit either. You know wtf you're doing so cut it out.
Someone needs to relax.. anyone that has asked me in good faith has gotten pretty damn complete answers here and offline email/pm .... What Im avoiding are people that ask just as a source of debate or flaming.... And if you dont like the topics or me ignore my posts ...

Right, and if you aren't going to share except with a couple "buddies" then you can F directly off, we don't wanna hear it when you're just wiping it in the faces of the family you screwed with your last business venture.

Besides, your trail of rubber just proves the biggest reason why over-modding a CLS is a waste of time/money - you can't get enough traction to a FWD car like ours. Put some street slicks on it and then maybe your tranny will break and the second reason will be apparent.

And I don't think I need to bring up the fact that most people here won't ever consider buying anything from you after what you did with the whole CAI scandal.

If an emoticon is worth a thousand words, here you go: :sqntfawk:

I don't usually spend my time in this type of post but to the above I must say: bullshit.

If you had any respect for the spirit of the a-cl.com community, you would share the information about all your mods publicly. You would revel in the opportunity for debate, and feel compelled to provide substantiating evidence that would support your position and silence any naysayers. I can't honesly understand what you have to lose by doing this.

Otherwise, you are just being a fucktard doing it for the ego gratification. And I won't ignore your posts or anyone else's, because I come here to learn and exchange useful information with other enthusiasts. I just won't learn anything useful from you.

I used to do that with my old Accord. I dont think you can do that anymore, is'nt there a rev limiter or something like that. the computer prevents you from damaging the engine.

Sure it a fancy way of doing a porting and or polishing... It involves sending a pressurized extrude (clay like abrasive putty) through the heads or intake etc.. it effectively smooths the rough casting by removing some of the material.... It is also great for locations that traditional polishing equipemnt can not reach.
