2dot4 isn't your car an auto with a shift boot covering the prndl. Cause I've seen your car in person.

yeah, you all met my 2006 auto tC (145whp on my last dyno)- like the first post said, I totalled that car (thank God). I bought my 07 5spd and turbo'd it back in may of 07 (240whp untuned on 7psi). Keep in mind, most 4th and 5th gen civics weigh like 2300lbs or less - the tC weighs 2950lbs.

Decided to go a different route with my 07. Staying away from vinyl, and just spending money on performance. lol

I'm not full of myself at all - I think of myself as a nice guy and I'm easy to get along with. I'm just getting out and meeting people. I used to be in STL Scion until I realized that the "leaders" were a bunch of douchebags, so I left.

I love working on cars - I built and installed my own turbo kit, and cars are pretty much all I've ever known. I don't hate on anyone else, because it ain't my shit to worry about.

You can hate on me if you want, I guess - I was just stoppin in to see what else was going on with other St. Louis imports. I didn't come here to start anything.

And no, I'm not intercooled yet - I'm putting all my money towards tuning right now - I'd rather have the car running properly than worrying about intake air temperature for now. But don't worry - It's coming. Just doing what I can afford to do right now.

Well welcome to the site. And I'm glad you are trying to make a name for yourself.

You have a new warm welcome from me. When my hatch is done, I wouldn't mind going for a fun run with you if you don't mind...

With the old setup I was making 235whp and 175 ft/lbs on 9 psi... Good numbers to see from you Sir.

well I appreciate you giving me a chance. I don't like to think of myself as a dummy when it comes to import tuning, but I can admit I've made dumb mistakes with my cars like going crazy with vinyl and putting a shift boot on an automatic (which in my defense, was only done because I had the shift boot and felt like putting it on, but I only had it on there for like a week.)

I'm slowly getting over my vinyl addiction lol - And if it's any consolation, I beat myself up over whether to leave the vinyl on my tC or not, and there were many times I decided to take it off but got lazy. So, I admit I've done stupid shit to my car, but I'm moving past all that - I'm all about hp now. I want my car to look clean and stock, with subtle changes - and so far I think I'm doing a good job (like my grille and headlights). But that's all subjective.

Anyway - I'd like to hang out and keep in touch with Honda tuning, if you don't mind - and I'm always up for a fun run. Let me know when you're ready.

Only thing worse than a Honda is those damn Scions.:duel:
