sounds good you only removed part of the pinstripping so far?

Hard to explain but, The owners before me had someone back into it while it was parked. It had a dented fender, hood plus a cracked headlight which all needed to be replaced. When I had it painted they threw a black and blue vinal pinstrip that looked like s**t over the original one because the two fender were painted and they didnt want it to look weird. Well I peeled that off with a blowdryer and now there is just the original pinstrip for the doors to the back. Im probably going to have a shop remove and detail the car because that s**t is real time consuming.

SOHC D's dont really respond well to boltons.

The N1 sounds really good imo, Its deep and decently loud and not ricey sounding I Still have OEM exhaust manifold and a Cat. im going to put a testpipe on it after I pass inspection this month. Its real loud and sounds real good on B series too.

yeah but still
you started out at almost 130
my intake (K&N SRI) gave my 97 DX a 5.2WHP gain an it's even the wrong intake I had to do some mods to get it to fit.
so
you are probably around 145?

im loving the sound it's really sexy I want to get the N1 even more than I did now.

No, he would be lucky if he has 125 whp.

Honda claims alot of things... should've claimed that their 6th Gen hoodlatches and windows are the best on the market too! haha
