The cams also play a roll in if the engine will fall on it's face at higher RPM's or just keep pulling.
An intake manifold by itself might not do much, but an intake manifold and cams might change the world.
It was clear you were joking with DS, and that was who your "I'm just messing with you" statement was toward, that was clear you were just joking with him.
you then followed it up with:
that was the part that seemed aimed at my post:
thats why I quoted that specific sentence.
It ain't...
I was suggesting a solution that I personally implement that solves the problem my post was talking about.
I'm not happy about a larger turning radius, I'd like it to be smaller, but it's such a minor issue. I never made the oversteer claim, but if you want my take on it. Wider tires in the...
Maybe if you're not use to driving manual transmission and you were not confident with it, then it would require some of your focus that you could give to other things....like texting or trying to hit a different apex point.
Once one becomes accustomed to changing their own gear, It takes no...
It would be nice if you'd give even one single reason other than "it just is, because I said."
If one wants to better themselves as a driver, not find the faster car, but improve their own abilities; how could one argue any differently?
I once whipped into a parking spot backwards so fast, a guy in oncoming traffic gave me a thumbs up, why does it take a long time to back up?
I can back up into a space in only fractionally longer time than pulling in forward and 100% of that is made back up in pulling out of the space...
Even with a rebuttal as logically sound as the evidence you've presented, I don't find your argument persuasive.
I'd be happy to continue this conversation for hours as I've done in the past, but it would be off topic; if you quote my post and put it in the "manual vs automatic" thread, I'll...
If it's an automatic then the driver doesn't seem to be interested in bettering themselves as a driver or they'd be driving the manual.
but just like everything the automatic driver does, just let the car do it for you and mash both pedals then release the brake while steering.
Why not...
You're going to want to try this a couple dozen times in an open area with nothing around, like curbs and all nannies off.
Also, if you can give the surface less grip by wetting it, it'll teach you the same maneuver while making it easier to initiate and less stressful on the car.
With...
I have two cars that will pass 100% of all sniffer and pollution tests, but the engines were never sold in the USA so...ILLEGAL. If they're going to be illegal regardless of what I do, I might as well go crazy with them.
BTW, $60 will get you a legal smog in CA, $300 will get you a "pass"...
Something in me just loves being able to see the cam covers of any engine. Maybe it's because I'm use to old japanese cars, but the intake manifold is cool looking and the cam's are where the cool mechanical engineering happens.
Put me down on the "naked" side of engine beauty.
I'm not that into music, and am into on-track driving and lots of aggressive cornering, so the extra weight of the better sound system are not worth it to me. I also want the recaros so that deletes memory seats and I simply adjust my mirrors correctly so I don't have a need for BSIS.

This and police attention are why I want my exhaust quiet, But I want all the power I can get for that long front straight on laguna.
I want my H.P. cake, but I want to eat my quiet exhaust too.
I'm talking about the upper part of the door, where the upper part of the door meets the window, the sill area. Everything above the upper cut line, is that the same on 68B vs normal premium?
+2, only thing I think when I hear about wrapping an exhaust is that stuff that causes your headers to crack after a while. http://www.summitracing.com/search/Part-Type/Exhaust-Wrap
