It’s a shitty setup meaning its not efficient, which means it will take a lot more to make power than something that is a good, efficient set up. But you’ve been working with cars since you were 12 so you knew all this. Carb power for life. ---

For one i don’t have a body kit on my car, It’s an after market front bumper because the stock one I had was in bad shape. the “huge wing” is actually a fucking STOCK OEM wing that came off of a 1999 3000gt and the “fart cans” actually are a full exhaust from headers back. But you’re right clearly their fart can mufflers and nothing else. I’m sorry I’m only 18 years old and I work at Stewarts part time, so I do not have the funds just yet to be bad ass like you and “build 3 civics”.

no u said a carb engine isnt effencient thats the argument correct? yes so i make a point adout one case thats on youtube your fucking retarted if u think that carbs are junk and usless and out dated and dont make power. the fastest pump gas street legal car on street tires is in fact a mopar and it is in fact carbed.so what makes carbed NON EFFECIENT? the fact that fuel milage isnt great? so what us it? and the fact of you NOT KNOWING JACK FUCKING SHIT about my engine makes you ignorant to this argument there for you have no argumant and you can in fact fuck yourself. do u know andthing about my build? hmm? ---

You of all people should have never said anything. You’re on a car forum constantly talking about your fucking shitty ranger and modding your bicycle, really?! Member 6SPD S4’s old turbo civic, 100% stock(valve cover to oil pan) 1.8L motor, and I think the turbo kit was probably $1,500 plus a $300 tune. $1,800, made 500whp and stayed together the entire time he had it.
