I have always heard that four bangers need back pressure for optimum performance unless they are turbo charged. I have been arguing with my roommate that they do need back pressure and he says that it is only some senser crap that makes later model four cylinders lose power when the exhaust is...

never mind got it sorted

Iv been trying to change the alternator and for a while (and freezing my ass doing it) and then a friend told me that it may not even be the alternator thats causing the problem if the voltage regulator is a separate part.

trying from the top I cant get it cause of the brake fluid resivoir which sticks out of the firewall about 6 inches and when I try from the bottom the cv axle is in the way and I still cant get it out

cant get the thing out of the engine bay now... do I have to take the brake fluid resevoir off from the fire wall??? this is rediculous!! Any clues would help cause chilton suxs an I cant drive anywhere to pick up something better

everytime I open my hood the damn thing wont latch for about 4 hours. after which the cable would slowely work its way back out and the hood would then latch. I (on some one elses advice) sprayed a bunch o napa brand penetrant into both ends of the cable tube and worked it back and forth and...

In response to the airbag thing... up till now Iv never driven a car with em and so far I havent missed em much and I have had a few collisions over the years. As for the legality of the issue- wouldn't that make anykind of aftermarket steering wheel illegal then? Remove the wheel and you remove...

So what is the difference in weight between a 93 b18a1 and a d16y7? Iv heard that the heavier engines are good only for drag purposes due to the increased weight in the front end which is already a bit heavy anyway. good for straight line but shitty for the curves... and in response to...

problem with an ls swap is that it's a pain in the ass (for me at least) I don't want to worry about engine mounts or drive axles and the ls is two heavy anyway for my tastes. and also... are the aftermarket intakes for the d series engines all alike? so one that would work on my d16y7 hatch...

Of course I would love to throw in a jdm b16 but I just dropped about 5k for the car and I don't have all that much left for tuning currently. I have around $1K for the engine which I am fairly confident I can swap with some help from my friends in exchange for beer. I am wanting this to...

The cool thing is the movie is almost frame for frame from the comic as opposed to translating the comic into a movie they took a comic and made it act like a movie. Even the color usage is right out of the comic. Quentin T only did one scene in the whole movie- the part where dwight is driving...

Iv argued this question on both sides but have never gotten a definitive answer from anyone. Will a turbo spool up and give you any kind of usable power when you rev the engine at a stand still? At first I thought not because of needing air movement in the intake to spool the turbo but then...

Where would I scare up such aftermarket bushings? Iv never seen em on the parts sites or at any of the local stores. If you have a website or some kind of link I would be forever grateful Thanx

I just testdrove a 2004 civic si :worthy: and after that climbing back into my 93 integra rs was torture!!!! The tranny and shifter are soOOo sloppy in comparison. :angry: Is there something I can do with the shift linkage or would it require major surgery on my tranny?

First I need to know what models and years was the b16 engine used in the civic? so I can track one down online Is there one particular version of the b16 head that will work best for this kind of hybrid swap onto a b18a1? Iv found a local machine shop that can do the work for me but I have to...
