Theres an X6 thats been mattede out that drives past me couple times a week on my way to work. in real life it looks even better than the pics.

Remember you can peel it off when you get tired of it. Seems to be the real in thing these days. Saw a late model Accord all matted oput and it looked menacing!

Nets full of pics on how to do it if you want to it yourself. You'll need patience though - takes a team of 2/3 guys a good few hours to get it done.

thats easy! faster! jus do a downpipe n chip n u away. the down pipe wil let ur turbo spool upm easier n run cooler. those 2 mods wil push u towards the 200kw mark. wil def bring a smile to ur face! u can also add the ful exhaust to that for a nice tone. i wud def go that route.

Iesh, watch the video s2000 from hell on youtube.. that things smacks a R1 :)

Honda engines are amazing, never has there been a single vtec failure, even the story with BMW, saying look we have created the thinnest wire in the world, and Honda said, oh? watch here, and drilled right through the centre of it :)

Margate hey :) nice... nothing like a VTec by the coast, gives those turbo cares a big suprise :)

I'll probably still buy an S2000 and do it up one day.. But for now want to create the fast accord, a friend does 11 sec flat in his Turbo Accord in Turbo, he will break the 10sec mark thats for sure..

I just need to make sure I upgrade the rods and rings if I want to push some serious boost, the engine is capable of a straight bolt on, but thats when people blow theirs, they get 'addicted to boost' so rather have all the internals ready..

Hondata is also quite an expensive buy but well worth it, around 18k, for the extra ECU too.. However the torque you can get is amazing out of the stock, and you can change vtec to any part, you can also get it to engage with different peddle pressure, that with a nice intake manifold and a 40degree VTC, man, its a beauty.. anything over 40 degrees and it may touch, and you going to enjoy re-doing your engine, with the Hondata you can 'software control the Type R VTC gear' but, that is still a risk as mechanically something can go wrong :)

ya i miss my baby! i def wanna get another one soon. for now doing up the house so something had to give :(. thinl the wife actually misses her more!
i looked into the hondata ecu but the very expensive but u right..def worth every cent.
vtec yo! cant beat. the stock motors can def handle boost but u do get addicted and b4 u know it u sitting with over 1 bar boost. the closest machine that ive driven that gives me that trill is a bike or the new m3. my mate with the M use to always wanna swap cars when we went jorling. said he felt like a kid racing a go kart. i didnt miond..i got to drive a new M all the time.

I wouldn't touch my car while it is still under warrantee. To be honest I'm not a guy for modifications, but I like to see what other do to their cars... so that I don't make the same mistake... lol
