Just checking in with you guys, and seeing what you guys have done in the off season.

I've been slowly prepping for this upcoming season. Bigger master cylinder, better brakes, and trying to get it as quiet as possible.

See you guys out there. :SolidStraight:

I'll be joining you guys this season, should be getting my new tires in the next week and a half. Only thing left for me is to get a new BOV, my stock recirc valve leaks like a bitch and I lose up to 4psi(when coming form 10 max that's substantial). Once I get that I should be all set to go!

Semi Jew
August 24th, 2008, 02:23 PM
oh me lol. the tone of that old exhaust just sounded so raspy, like my old prelude when the muffler was broken inside.

poon
August 24th, 2008, 02:35 PM
This one is still a bit raspy, but thats a Honda for ya. The old header leaked at the slip fit joint.

See you guys in a couple weeks.

4th and 5th gears are my problem gears as far as this tune goes. He can run a quick log for me to verify that.

From GCAC Website:

Noise Patrol, Is your car too LOUD? Well, we tried using a db meter and the results showed it was not solving the problem. Noise complaints were being received by the Board of Directors at Mosquito Control, these are the nice people who give us permission to use the site for our events. Because of these complaints we are going back to the system of using our ears for sound control. If you think your car might be too loud it probably is and you will get a warning or possibly not be allowed to run. Please, we want to see you keep attending our events, if we don't do so quietly there will no longer be any events.

Fuck. Seriously, at first having straight pipe is cool, now when I want to do something constructive and not illegal, it's too fucking loud to actually do anything. Catch-Twenty-Two I guess. Oh well, I will be out next week at the meet.

Naw man, r-comps are good in any class, you can run them in stock. I may take one of you guys up on the offers but there's a slight possibility that I'll use them on a car I bring with me. :D

Steven tore it up yesterday! S2000's are great cars, but its not easy to go that fast in them. Brent thanks for allowing me to test what I should do to my car. If you get RE-01's, those Orlando guys will not be happy. I know that we could have got into the high 72's with them, but I also know that they don't give them away without $$$. I wish we raced 2x/mo. Nice seeing everyone again.
