Re: Help

read the first 10 pages of this forum (ls1 tech), write down anything you don't understand, then do a search.

THEN come back and ask specific questions.

as far as relating to a honda...the principles are similar. easier air in, more fuel, easier exhaust out, and traction.

Re: Help

also considering you are moving from a 100 hp car to a 300 hp car maybe you should learn to drive first before we start killing ourselves with speed we cant handle


a good start is an intake lid, cat-back, free mods (do a seach to find out what they are), and madd driving skillz

Re: Help

If it still has the stock plugs, do that 1st. I did mine at ~50k and the engine felt like it picked up 30hp.

Re: Help

Take more than a month to get used to it.

Faster is fun, but I'd bet you can't put all the stock power to the ground. Start w/tires and suspension and move on.
