Yeah... I passed the first section.. and failed the mechanical lol Stupid HVAC haha
Anyways, Honda outlines clearly you get no pay increase for being a PE sooooo I guess it worked out for me haha.
I took the last written test ever for the FE.. now they are only 6hrs long, computer based and you know if you pass when you hit submit. It's cray cray.

Whether or not that is really true anymore, I still can't shake that anecdotal feeling.
But I also keep my vehicles for 10+ years an have historically bought used with 60k-100k+ already on them and all my Toyotas and Hondas have just run.
I guess I just stick with the devil I know.

The FE was moderately amusing. First half was just an epic brain-fuck.
Break for lunch... Everyone just sat in silence with blank looks on their faces like they'd just been through war or something.
Then the second half... Ha! I literally flipped through the book going, "don't know that, don't know that, don't know that..." I think there were maybe 10 questions in the afternoon that I could even comprehend.
Ah, good times.
EDIT: But the saving grace for me was that the Pass/Fail of the test is based on the (or at least it was) people who took the test at the same time. And I had a bunch of really dumb cohorts taking the test...

Basically. I'm still stuck in the old mindset of Honda/Toyota above all with Germans and Italians way down the list.

Itz JDM y0!
I have 3 friends that have cars with the 2.0T engine, one had a 2007 A4 2.0T, one had a 2010 CC 2.0T and one had a 2006 Passat 2.0T. The A4 made it to 90k, the CC 60k and the Passat 100k. I would not expect Honda reliability out of those cars but if you're fine with that I don't think it'd be a terrible trade. My friend with the Passat has a 2015 GLI now and it's pretty nice. The new Si with the turbo engine is coming soon if you can wait.
Also, this is one where a strong tutor is worth the $$. I took my calculus a few decades back, and tutors weren't so easy to find. Hurt my GPA plenty.

Supposably, "irregardless" is a perfectly valid word in some parts of the country.
I worked with a guy that, honest to goodness, used every single nonsensical word you can ever poke fun of.
He did it in all seriousness. I had to travel with him once and it slowly sunk in that he wasn't doing it ironically...

Some of my co workers say "acrossed" instead of across. I cringe every time I hear it. These are smart/educated engineers too... maybe it's a Midwest thing?

My college roommate, and friend whom (lol) stood beside me at my wedding have a running joke.
I never had a problem with english or grammar, I was able to bypass those courses in college cause of my AP classes in high-school, but man he struggled so hard... He was writing an essay, I was studying calc I. After 30 minutes he turns to me and says "hey listen to this.. blah blah blah blah" and stops.. And I was like what's wrong bro?-- That it, that's all I wrote so far-- But dude.. you only wrote one sentence-- **responds** " I know, but it's a legit sentence!"
hahaha I can definitely attest to A LOT of engineers not doing well with english/grammar/ literature haha

You could always get a shop to fab and put on a test pipe for you to try out. If no gains there, then definitely no gains from HFC.
Itz JDM y0!
has anyone had their front control arm crack just under normal driving/hooning? It looks like mine is cracked, not sure if they will cover it under warranty..

I bought my rsb from excelerate. Between them and heeltoe it shouldn't really matter who you choose unless one is cheaper.
