hey there...

does anyone know how can i make sure or test my car's performance? as in...besides dynoing it...how would i know its up to par? i got this like 3 months ago and its stock accept for a drop in K&N filter....i am not sure if its up to par yet accept for the fact that i can keep up with a focus zx3 and be about a feet away from a integra ls with i/h/e...any ideas?

oh yea...for the focus i took off wrong as i wasn't used to the clutch and for the integra i hit fuel cut off...was testing how far into the redline i could go...

thanks in advance...;)

Take it to a 1/4 mile race track.

UMM I would say drag strip or maybe a G-Tech meter. Not sure how good those things work though:confused:

Gateway drag strip is about an hour from you in St Louis. There are about five members here, and usually one of us is at the drag strip on Fridays. A couple of us are planning on going this Friday, Oct. 4th. Come join us!

I would recommend getting a techtom meter. Those things are awesome. They can tell you anything you would want to know about how your car is running. Coach has one and I got to play with it for awhile and now I am saving up for one.

Honestly, if you are that cheap not to get a 130 dollar G-Tech meter, then you don't care how your car performs. Go buy a Honduh Civic DX, get 40 miles to the gallon and call it good. Everyone here has tried helping you and you turn down each and every suggestion! We are only trying to help.
