I love Christmas!
Well, Acurazine is a place where we all spend a lot of time, speak freely, and point out other people's faults...
So yes...it's just like family!

So I skipped it tl;dr style...like a fkng dumbazz.

The only thing I fkd up was misunderstanding the head and vs intake and boy have you hung onto that...
Sounds about right LOL...

Again, I am not hung upto you misunderstanding head vs intake (I even quoted all posts for ya)....the reason I am pissed it coz yet again you make a baseless claim that I twisted words....

but yes, please go on with your posts....they are hilarious...

EDIT: not it, at

I honestly like Jeremy....he is (well seems like) a nice guy but the damn rude ass -s get to me from time to time...

at times I let things go but from time to time I like to stand my ground

Samesies...
but yeah, that really wasn't even us arguing about anything. Just intellectual jousting. Kinda fun but hurts the blood pressure.

If we met in person, you'd name your next baby Jeremy, boy or girl.

for Justin, the 3.7 heads, Type S cams, maybe a port and polish is what I have been suggesting....the 3.7 manifold and TB seem to be a lot of $$$...now if he can find a set for a good price, hell, do it....but at $1000 they seem to be a bit over the board...now if our TB's fit the manifold and the cost was down to 200-300, I would be recommending that as well....
Couldn't have said it better myself.

The j37 intake/TB combo is pretty and all but it's not all what its hyped up to be in regards to value. It's very expensive horsepower (what little there is) if you ask me! People fail to realize that Honda tunes parts in accordance to their displacement, not airflow. Think torque enhancement for the bulky MDX 3.7 which could breathe fine with a j35 manifold but by changing runner/trumpet design and length the j37 manifold manages to add more FT LBS to compliment the vehicle...it wasn't just used for airflow purposes. Though it WILL increase airflow, the airflow patterns are disrupted from their normal patterns that the intake was designed for and that causes a shift in powerband moreover the production of power. Bigger manifolds on smaller displacement engines that did not have a restrictive manifold to begin with generally drop torque to a nasty low level and then reduce the "usable rev range" or peak powerband from say 3800-6800 rpms to maybe 4400-6800 rpms. Then the engine hits rev limiter waaaaaaay before it runs out if breath. Not saying its always the case though. Someone may have been adding supporting bolt ons prior to a larger manifold installation. This then may compliment the added volume.

Honestly, I prefer for you to use your manifold on my heads

Dennis is around...show up with a pack of magnums, say this is to replace your damaged rubber, and give him a big

FYI whomever mods the 3G section these days, and maybe it's just me and maybe it's already known, but a ton of the links in the 3G garage either don't work at all or point to the wrong thread. Almost as if the DB was reshuffled and thread id's got erroneously updated/shifted.

That happens occasionally to me when I click a sub'd thread...it'll open up a totally different one. Infrequently for me but then again, my sub'd aren't all 3G.
