You won't know who I am but i come from the ole purehonda.com. Well now they merged with www.automotiveforums.com, and i was wondering what you are up to. It must sound weird for me to ask about you when I don't know you and you don't know me. Your name comes up once in a while, and I was wondering if you are still into the honda scene. Hit me up - later

I sold my rice rocket for a awd turbo eclipse. Big difference and I dont have to dump tons of money into it to get it to pull 11s at the strip in street form. Test drive one once and youll be hooked also. Regards, Sean
damn and i thought he was just broke!!

Hey don't be so harsh... those AWD turbo eclipses and talons are fast fvckers, and their handling is wonderful...
I'll admit, I'd still want a Honda in my drive way, but I wouldn't mind having a GSX-T or anything alone those lines.
Can't blame him for liking speed.

damn, y'all better ban my ass then. I've got a 73 Camaro 350 in the garage and a 32 Ford w/ a twin carb 454 at the neighbors.
I'd rather have a turbo eclipse than a Honda too.

hm....
2.0L DOHC turbo...all-wheel drive..
1.6L SOHC supercharged...front wheel drive..
You do the freakin' math.
I'd dump a Civic for a Supra or a Skyline anyday of the week!

Yeah, the eclipse/talons with the turbo 4g63 are pretty bad ass cars. Add all wheel drive... just makes it even better. Can't hate on that!!!

I'm not sure I quite follow you. It looks like there is no manifold, or filter. You say its just a mesh sqeezed in between bolt on "salt and pepper shakers"? Wouldn't that be load as hell?

So how much do those ITB's cost, can you install them yourself, are they legal, and how much does it kill your mpg? They look hella tight, I thought it was a joke. I didn't know they were for real. I bet you gotta upgrade fuel injection, fuel rail, and cooling like mad!

nothing like itb's to freak thr shit outa people and to loose massive low end torque ina non race motor. they are quite expensive (2000+ from toda) and the filter, if you wanna call it that, is housed individually in each throttle body. wannabee weber sidedraft carbs is what i call them.
