well... people who put stupid mufflers and stickers on their car are called ricers and they're not exactly after more speed... it's not that hard to make your car faster if you have the money. adding a charger to a car doesn't ruin technology as long as you do it right, and it CERTAINLY doesn't make it slower.

Any modification to HONDA unless it’s a stereo upgrade make me laugh. If you want speed, you better get a car that built for speed. |
people sometimes like to add little things for their own preference, which car companies can't do, they can't have things that will suit everyone in their cars. I do agree about the Honda modding though. :p
respect to high milage beasts _Nut_, my Jetta's got 226,000 mi. and running very strong. and I will be looking into a supercharger once money's in the green. ;) |

Yeah but being on the bottle don't really classify it as stock anymore. What size shot was it and was it wet or dry? Slicks also help out tremendously. |

It's actually quite easy to figure this out

First - you can notice the needle going through "D" in unleaded on the speed meter.
Second - observing the tip of the left needle in zoom mode, you can notice some pixels that are disproportioned in their colors compared to the red bar, from my point of view it looks like the whole bar was repainted, or some effect was used on it to blur the needle editing in it.
FAKE!! |

FAKE!! | Considering there is no way in hell he would be going over 140 in a stock integra GSR tranny.
Ya, you would be laughed off the track for pulling a faster time then a 600 HP supra? sure, very believable. Laugh until it pulls a sub 12/11 second time. I don't like honda's but they all aren't slow. They weigh next to nothing in car weight terms so it doesn't take much to get them down the track. |

Look close. there is actually a dark spot. the inset is the original, the big is the "fake" |

| speed is at 40, you can tell by how sharp the 0 is in 40, also it is slightly darker in 1 specific area compared to the rest of the dash, as for revs - i'm convinced that they're at 9000, did you just leave it in second and floor it? |

second gear should get him to roughly 60 or above. but th stock ECU will only get to 8700?
I've driven one where thre was no limiter and a built motor and i had it shifting at 10,500 no problem. |
