LMAO. best one IMO

my Ti has glue there. had. now I have nice shiny ceramic coated steel :) Yeah, I hate my msp so much, which is why after every drive I get out this scrap heap with a big grin.

powdercoat?

32 when i was 22. and 39 when I was 27... can't say I'd want to venture much older than that, though I would go back to the now 43 y/o... for a weekend treat :)

mine went down. definitely due to a heavier foot though. once I eased up my milage was what it was before the pipes. Same deal with the midpipe. (and I paid $1.02 a LITRE for 91 octane last week. 3.75 litres to a US gallon, exchange rate right now is 0.73. That's $2.79 a gallon. Sucks to be...

If the car doesn't already have an aftermarket alarm, consider getting the compustar 2 way - has a 2 minute TT built in, remote start, and lots of other bells & whistes. www.compustar.org I think

mine came loose too. This is your excuse to buy hard pipes.

looks like a golf (prob euro spec - look at the plates) to me. I like it. kinda impractical, but ... cool for shows & stuff.

my theory as well. I had gauges in my old car before this - Oil pressure, voltage, and amperage. I had 2 sets of 100w fogs/driving lights and an amplifier that I've seen draw 25 amps, so I wanted to keep my eye on the state of charge/discharge of the battery while waiting at stoplights or in...

supercharger for quick throttle response, turbo for big boost? ... is that why?? same concept as sequential twin turbos?

I have the compustar with most of the bells & whistles. i didn't read your mod list, but ... if you don't have a TT already, the compustar has it, and also has remote start. good 2 stage sensor, paging etc. Basic system was $500 CDN installed, the bells & whistles were extra (mercury hood...

any idea what your EGT is while you're getting this power? You're generating a ton of heat at 15 psi. Call me conservative, or careful, but my first choice would not be to go boost happy. I believe it's called "detonation", and it's a bad thing to have happen.

I take mine in all the time with CAI, hardpipes, BOV, and midpipe, and they don't care. Find a dealer that's OK with it and treat them well. I asked the shop manager "what about a FMIC"? He said, so what? You're only cooling down the air a bit more, it's not like you're boosting to 15 lbs or...

If the msp were to come out looking something like this it wouldn't matter a damned bit which one. I'd take 'em both. (i voted sedan)

Gonna have it for quite a while. Unless the MS6 gets me hooked. No there won't be much aftermarket specific for the msp, but there will be a TON for the Protege.. As the P5 and sedans get cheaper, the same type of guys who buy mid 80s / early 90s civics today will be picking up 3rd gen proteges...

my mum's 62, drives a supercharged MR2. she lets me take it when I go home to visit :) Likely soon to be a Z4.

Yes. UNTIL the ECU is reset (battery disconnected while doing the install should be long enough) or learns that more air is available. Then NO. Runs and idles great.
