not irrelevant, it's just that this guy obviously isn't ready for nitrous and doesn't want it either. It doesn't matter if it's a single cam or dual cam motor so I don't understand what you mean by that statement. Basic bolt ons won't make it that much more noticeable, no, but it WILL give it a little extra "oompf" as pdiggity stated. You say you're being realistic, but you're not because that's not what he wants...it's about what he wants, not you, but you're entitled to your opinion and your opinion does mean something

will it really??? you think it will REALLY give it ANY "oompf"
i really think that is psycological.. on a HEAVY lx nonvtec 4 door.. i REALLY AND TRULLY believe intake and exhaust will make NO other differance other than THINKING its faster... NO oompf.. just noise...


and my statement was meanign that.. if we were talking about an H22 then or a k20 then i would HONESTLY agree that intake and exhaust CAN make a differance.. BUT NOT on a single cam LX.. that was my point... my point is hes askign an HONEST question.. how should i spend my money to make the car faster.. and my honest answer is not bolt ons.. lol i mean im NOT SAYING nitrous is his only option.. its NOT.. there are TONS of things that will make the car GO faster... a light recipe of boltons is NOT one of them...

BTW is this car manual or auto..
