Maybe it was a just a technical difficulty his original post was edited and all pictures removed.

Sounds like someone didn't like people questioning him on things and then when you and Ryan pointed out that what he was saying was really hard to believe, he just got pissy and decided to be take all his stuff down instead of explaining or admitting he was wrong/lying. No big loss in my book either way though :yo:

You know, if you can't give credible information to back up what you are saying, people will "bitch" all day.

Nobody said your car was slow/ugly/etc. I mean look at your dyno.....really look at it. Find me a 67mm turbo 2.0 that has the same curve. It won't make that torque down low without sacrificing a ton up top.....period (unless you are adding something else into the mix).

And worse here?.......

Post this dyno sheet and parts list on honda-tech.........and give me the link.

And to note again....the ONLY thing people are questioning is the dyno sheet. These are not stupid people doing the questioning.

there seems to be something wrong with the database on this site cause some posts seem to be deleting their contents. luckily i was able to find this and will repost it here with quote and hope that it doesnt get lost.

I have been in the car scene for sometime, owned a 91 Integra, 88 CRX, 94 Hatch, now the 98 Coupe.

.....::::::......One question....Were looking at different communities....What is a NICE, SAFE town to be looking for house's in? Were Small town Iowan's! And looking for a town outside STL that is comfortable to us.

Thanks Guys!

Dyno sheet that was in question... 96civic cr-v, your 40R dyno looked just like "his" (above), right?

I'm definitely not here to bust his balls or anything since I'm helping them find housing in Webster, but I just noticed a different dyno chart on his FB...
