Its winter here in Germany, so the car is dirty ;)
Daily driven EK4
It's a stock B16A2 engine

Installed
Spoon N1 muffler
Spoon exhaust B-pipe
Spoon header
Spoon throttlebody
Mugen airbox
Spoon ignition wires
Spoon carbon hood
Spoon radiator cap

So intake and exhaust is done.
Dyno told me 146 KW that is like 198.56 hp (engine). Thats unbelievable. But a second Dyno will come to be sure.

Exhaust



Carbon hood




Engine the rest







Dyno


A reminder, thats the car (last summer)
99' civic EK4

painting the hood was a BIG mistake imo

now you have a crooked and goofy looking outline of "gram light" on your hood... and you dont even have gram light wheels

also the only thing that hood had going for it was it's cf look
the weight reduction it offers is pretty much useless on your car from a performance aspect

You don't live in Germany ;)

All the parts, the c-west kit the spoon carbon rear wing are illegal ;)
The hood also. When the police stopps me, and they will see a carbon hood, they will look under the hood and see all the other parts.
Then I can change everything. The paint is good not to be an eye catcher.
I hope I will get the whole parts legal soon ;) But right now the car is all the way illegal.

The sticker was from "gram lights" right. But I think gram light fits a carbon hood. And I wanted that you can see that it is carbon without opening the hood.
Only the hood reduces not much weight thats right. But thats not the only thing where I reduced weight ;)
For example suspension.
The shocks are full body aluminum ;) very light weight. I changed some parts in weight. I love it to reduce weight. But I don't strip the car, cause its a daily driven one.
Here aluminum suspension by "Idol-motorsport" Germany:


You see the shocks have nearly twice the diameter of an normal steel one. But the weigt is maybe 500 gram one.
Every light parts together reduce a lot of weight!

I like how you left the spoon tag exposed.
Thanx. I left the sign exposed, cause when I will have all the parts legal, the police will look for it.
And I like the tag :D

your reasoning is rediculous at best :lol:

all of your "weight reduction" wont do s**t for your performance

and gram light is a band of wheel... which you do not have and in no way does it "fit" your hood
your hood neither weighs a gram, nor is it "light".... "light" meaning to be lit, produce illumination etc etc
the word you'd be looking for would be "lite" meaning Having less substance or weight
as of now it just looks like you're trying to pass of your wheels as something they are not.. or are atleast claiming you have something on the car that you do not

and since the weight reduction of your hood has the same performance value as a single wiper conversion, you've ruined the only advantage.... it's aesthetically pleasing quality

Thats your point of view. No problem for me ;)
Sorry for my english.

then you see that it in no way what so ever describes any part of your hood, or your hood as a whole... and in fact describes NOTHING on or about your car...

Your right.
I took the only sticker and that was gram lights. Like I said. my english is not the best, so I thougt "light" has somethin' to do with weight. In German its the word "leicht" (not very different "light").
But the whole thing is no problem for me. So I don't have gram lights but the sign on my hood. I don't care.

easy to see how you would make that mistake, english not being your first language and all

dont feel bad though i guess... most americans cant make the distinction either :lol:
