Thanks for the words of advice. As far as my buddie goes I havent talked to him since I saw/heard the tape. Whats funny is when he went down to tennesse with me to get it after the rebuild he couldnt stop talking about how he wanted to get one.

Yeah I thought about modding the SC but I need something to drive in the winter.
Alot of guys with high HP numbers run single exhaust and it makes sense, and I may end up going that route but the bumper has the cut outs for duals from mazda soooo as of right now it IMO would look kinda strange.

LOL some people
they have duals stock since 1986. Waaaayyy before you would of ever called the car rice. But thats your opinion and I am not about to start an internet pissing contest. Thats not why I am here. And just for the record I have never told him that I hate american muscle, he probably just thinks that because I told him to buy an S2000 over a vette. And not because it would be faster. Thats just my opinion.

oh my bad man, i aint guna be an asshole like someone people and back my self up, i really did not know they had stock duals
and the fact that u said "u are not about to start an internet pissing contest" over something like this, yah u are probably my first repsected import driver
i am pretty sure although the mufflers u had on the car are fart cans tho lol
but ahh well, yah its your opinion between what u like and dont like
and once again, i never knew they had stock duals...i learned something new today
and i just looked at some rx7s from around time, they dont look that bad with tips on the duals

well I respect your kind words. Hopefully I can frequent this site and learn some new things myself.
Just an fyi..... they arent fart cans. Its the Greddy Power extreme cat back($950) one of if not the best systems you can purchase for the car.
Thanks for being open minded though.

catbacks huh, not bad. I have a few friends who are into imports, they sort of ruin it for people like you by talking thier life away about how fast they are and can eat any american car but anyway. I hear a lot about headerback exhausts and how well they work on import cars, perhaps an rx7, u ever try one of them?
Well I assume you know that my engine doesnt have a head. Plus its a turbo which has no head also. Just a downpipe. But I do have 3" from the turbo all the way back. cant get to much bigger due to lack of space.

Buh Bye !
I know Ive been trying to talk him out of getting a s2000 for the past 2 weeks ......lol
long
Ive been trying to get him into a 00-01 ws6 with a six speed in it. S2000's Have no torque and there really isnt a Ton you can do with them except throw it around like a Go cart. Simply put After driveing my C5 for a year then jumping in a S2000. It felt like I was on a slow Boat to china driveing the thing
The reason I say Ws6 is because He can get into one of them for Less than a s2000 and with a few mods Like Long tubes and a cam with a tune hes looking at 400Hp at the rear wheels. When you start with a V8 eng that gets 27mpg at the highway and has 320hp Stock Your so much farther ahead right off the showroom floor
oh yeah agreed anything with an LS1 is going to be one of the best platforms to start with. He was telling me about the WS6 and agreed it would be fast but IMO I just dont care for the front end of those cars.
I guess I am just partial to the S2k due to the fact that I dont know anyone who has one. But if deff would take ALOT more money to make it put down 400rwhp. Granted if he did put that much into it, it would sure suprise alot of people.

It has to have an exhaust manifold (header).
Do you know how a turbo works? The exhaust is what spools the turbo.
The exhaust comes out of the head through the MANIFOLD, enters the exhaust side of the turbo, and spins the turbine wheel.
The spinning turbine spins the compressor wheel(intake side), which sucks the air into the turbo.
Meanwhile, the turbine is shooting the exhaust out the downpipe, and through your $950 catback.

i dont care...if u want to call me a ricer because it took me 3 years to build my car how i wanted it, then go ahead...i hand built the motor, put it in, the only thing i didnt tune it because i dont own a dyno...
oh wait i'm a ricer because i drive a honda
Haha...You 'hand built' your engine and then didnt tune it because you don't have a dyno? Let me know how that works out for you.
Yeah I am fully aware of how a turbo works. But he was saying that I should get a header back exhaust. And I think he is basically saying a new "header",mid-pipe,cat-back. So thats why I said I cant have a header back because its a turbo. It only has a downpipe,mid-pipe,cat-back. Maybe we arent seeing this eye to eye so please clarify if I am wrong.
Now if it was a N/A car then yes I could have a header back. Again maybe we arent seeing this from the same angle so please clarify if what I am saying isnt corrisponding to what you were trying to say.
Thanks for the compliment. Yeah the anniversary model was in 88 and was all white. Did he keep the stock sequential twin turbos on it or did he go with a large single? Most guys run large singles because the twins create too much heat and heat is one of the biggest killers of rotary engines.
I have a friend with an 00 Civic SIR that walks on stock C5's all day long. He has $3,000.00 in mods on his car. There is another guy in my city with a 95 Civic with around $12,000.00 in mods plus cost of car $5,000.00 total $17,000.00 and he just put down 512fwhp.
To each his own I say. My definition of Rice is not an import. Rice to me is any car that is outrageously done up with stupid things like, big wings, stickers everywhere, bad paint jobs, neon lights, multi colored interiors, shit like that.
A good example of a cool Civic is Cheesefrogs. I'm sure many of you have seen this vid of him going up against a highly modded Viper. http://www.cheesefrog.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=getit&lid=1
Another vid of him taking down a 650rwhp Supra.

blackhatch20 you are an idiot, Its AMERICAN muscle or nothing, not some, economy gas saver turned turbo. Cubic inches are the all important factor here and we AMERICANS are the creators of motorsports so take your foreign crap in and get a real car!
