To the other poster asking how to get on his show. He has 3 requirements: you live in Cali or will drive there, he hasnt done your car yet (He will do a car 3 timess, stock, slight mods, and "race"), and third you fill out a wheel well site page and email him. He did a highly modified TLS and now this slightly modded one. I would love to see him do a stock base 6speed.

GTFO, that's YOU Osk?!?!
I always thought you were a redhead!

How very cool...I saw that Andy posted the link in the FB group that I detest and thought it was his car...didn't realize it was a KBP until just now.
Damn, making me miss my car.

I started the first minute, I'll watch the rest in bed later.

Would love to see it on there bro. Your accord is turbo right? Sorry if im mixing you up with someone else. I used to be on 6thgenaccord. I had a turbo 4cyl 5speed. Shit was still slow. I was only on 6psi tho and an fpr... I sold that to buy my rx7 which was a money pit. But even my stock TL is better in every way than either of them.

Yup it is turbo. Just gotta make sure they dont get a shot of the plate. I don't think it is street legal with the open dump and vent to atmosphere BOV. If they can't is doesn't get sold I'll put in a request to be a feature

You live in Cali like that?? I wont even ask how you get emissions. Im sure they have a one take branded plate you can use, but idk they do it on public roads and I can tell he doesnt edit it much. I shoulda just went open pipe. I had a custom down pipe with external wastegate that flowed back into it. It wasnt worth it.

Currently live in WV. Zero emission test. just a quick look over the car and then you get a "Safety" Sticker


Everyone car looks good :p

Nice vid, just came up in my YouTube feed because I always browse on that channel. Good to finally see some AZine representation! I had a good feeling that it was someone on this forum.

Beautiful car btw!

You also gave away that either your computer speakers aren't working or you didn't bother watching the video.
It was clearly stated what he's done...
although he left out the front RV6 strut bar which adds at least 1 nano hp.

Hey, nice review OsKaR!

Congrats on the eFame.

I haven't watched a whole lot of the Smoking Tire videos, but does Matt ever shit on a car? He seem so genuinely positive of everything.

EDIT: So, what's your daily Electric?

I daily drive a Chevy Spark EV.

I smoke WRX's 0-30 come holla @ ya boi. Two on my kill list.

LOL....electric cars are so fun. Instantaneous torque, all the power you need when you want it. It's fun for zipping through traffic if you need to change lanes or need to suddenly overtake someone going 30-40mph. I swear I've made some big V8's do a double take when they see this silent little car haul ass past them.

Basically it's the fastest electric car in its class. The i3 is quicker though, but also more expensive.

Dope car... and dat color! For the bluetooth module, look up the oven baking trick - I tried it (rather reluctantly) and it works!

Sorry for the triple post mods, haha.

Yeah the base gas model is shit. The EV isn't bad. I mean it's my daily commuter so, not expecting much out of it. I was looking for fun, reliable, highest range in its class, and DC Fast Charging.
