Here's some updated pics of my car. BTW, my mechanic ****** up the install on the steedspeed manifold (leaking like crazy with seafoam)

Looking pretty good. Front end seems "busy" with the vent but overall the car looks good.

I dig the MOMO steering wheel, still have your stock one?

Yeah, I went a bit overboard with the front.

The stock MSP steering wheel is sitting around at my apartment...

If its in good shape, I'll buy it from you. Don't need the airbag, just the wheel. PM me if you want to.

Let me get back to you on that...Gotta go to a hookah lounge soon.

looks good, that evo wing is HUGE though. Maybe it's just the pic angle, but seems awkward.

how much hp do you get from the sp2? or is it not noticeable? though on the injen cai it says "dyno proven performance" yet people still argue that there is none.

agreed.... i have seen a few MSP's with EVO wings, but this one seems REALLY big.... maybe its the color?

Engine bay looks great! Give your mechanic a kick in the ass for screwing up the manifold install.

But .. I'm not really feeling the exterior. I've never liked the EVO wing on the MSP -- it just doesn't work with the lines of the car, winds up throwing off the whole balance and makes the car look like it should tip over onto it's back bumper. And the front end does look busy and not 'unified'.

Why do you have that vent in the front bumper if you don't have a CAI?

What did your mechanic do to screw up the install on the SteedSpeed?

 

[HondaNoMore]

only thing i could think of is im-proper torque on the nuts/bolts or snapping one off... also, what does sea-foam have to do with the mani install being fu-bar-ed?

It doesn't. Using seafoam just shows you where the manifold is leaking, if it IS leaking.

 

[Ryoga28]

with seafoam, there were a shitload of smoke coming from the bottom part of the mani...the mechanic did install one of the lower mani bolts because he did think a bolt would fit there...

as for the carbon cutout, I used to have a cai but switched to a MAM sri later on. also, the water injection pump is located the area where the cai filter would be.

I guess I should have left it wing-less, but I got a i couldn't pass.

sweet car. don't listen to anyone else. as long as u like it....LOVE it. I was thinking about the steedspeed, hmmm....

 

[stdntDrvr]

interesting...tint the windows! i agree with some about the front and spoiler...i'm not a fan of CF...even though i had a CF hood on my mp3...but i'm not the one driving it or paying for it...all that matters is whether or not you like it.

 

[Ryoga28]

Tints...that's something I've been thinking about for awhile now, but problems always comes up.
