    Does it come and go with acceleration or decceleartion?

    honeycomb in maf sensor?

    Yes. If the air is tumbling, the "vortex generator" will not be able to create the proper wave form of air to move the electronics at the right frequency. You will still get a reading, just not an accurate one. Grim, some MAF's act up with out, some don't. Go figure. Even on the same car...

    abs problem

    I don't know if you are familiar with working with electricity or not, so 1 is the meter's way of saying no continuity. The winding or wire to the plug is open electrically.

    7M-GE + Supercharger?

    I am very for the idea of a mechanical blower on a 7M. And the GE does not have fuel cut. Power enrichment could come from an HKS VPC. It would need the chip for the MR2 Turbo. It has the same vane airflow meter as the 7MGE.

    7M-GE + Supercharger?

    I am not saying anybod here did anything. That pic has been around a long time. But take a good look at the intake. Where is it? Best case scenario, somebody removed it and mocked up the blower to see how close it is. And not very close is the answer. Where does the throttle body go?

    7M-GE + Supercharger?

    Behold, photoshop! Besides the obvious disparity between the engine and the blurred background, where is the intake manifold in the picture? And what is the hotwire mass airflow sensor on the intake doing there? When our car doesnt use one. That pic originally had a white Cressida...

    Yes, it straightens turbulent airflow.

    found the limit of the stock exhaust manifold

    One thought is having the manifold Extrude Hone ported. If it makes a stock 5.0 Mustang intake manifold flow really well, it has to work in this application.

    Al Zarqawi downsized

    Can you believe that asshole Mr Berg disgracing his son, just like that cunt Mrs Sheehan. They are first rate ultra left wing idealogs who use the memory of their dead children for politcal gain. Mr Berg blaming Bush for what al-Zaraqawi did is like blaming black people for the what the KKK did.

    This is how tax cuts really work

    Yes they will. Just like social security. FDR's plan and successful one at that to socialize a large chunk of the American economy. Oh yeah, about every penny. Social security (FICA) on your check goes to the general fund. And it paid from the general fund. There is no "lock box", never was...

    This is how tax cuts really work

    That is right, don't refute the information, but redirect and use non analogous refrencese to change the subject. I offer up a bunch of policy showing that national socialism isnt any different than socialism and you quote people talking about politicians. Nice. That proved a lot..:nono...

    Options for Horsepower?

    No, that is right on. The first thing to do is a tear down before jumping in and saying you need pistons, or anything else. You can make a budget after you know where you stand mechanically on the engine.

    7mgte power

    Where? The trailered 11 sec gutted and totally unstreetable Honda usually gathers a huge crowd of eminem dressed juveys. I have read of faster. Still waiting to see the common 12 second Honda. (not counting CBR) edit: If Honda sold a few hundred thousand Civics, I suppose having a...

    Mostly a Fluke 179 DVOM. The Snap-On box is buried in storage.

    Making the throttle react quicker...

    Yes, a long runner manifold like a 5.0 Mustang or the ACIS on naturally aspirated Toyotas.

    This is how tax cuts really work

    Which reminds me, incase the deomcrats on the board think Hitler is right wing.... Quoted in Hermann Rauschning, Hitler Speaks, London, T. Butterworth, 1940 and... and his party platform... All citizens of the State shall be equal as regards rights and duties. The first duty of...

    This is how tax cuts really work

    If you were paying a million a year in taxes, regardless of how much you make, you would be complaining too. But most "rich" don't complain. I do. I work for a "rich guy", not a "poor guy". The less he makes, the less he pays me. It is the most simple formula. AKA, supply side economics...

    This is how tax cuts really work

    First a few qualifiers. Politically knowledable people already know. Even those that say things like "making rich pay their fair share" or " rich are getting the biggest tax cut". It is horseshit and liberals know it. But here is a really good example with a real world situation. I found it...

    Al Zarqawi downsized

    Very good news. It isn't over. But it undermines the terror effort. He is a classic brainwasher. Go Air Force I guess.
