Best place to find the lights is ebay, just looks for a seller with a lot off items sold and check there feedback, youll get the best deal on there.

obviously you missed what i said in my post. i said that 21psi on a street car would not net 450hp but that doesnt mean it isnt streetable. why isnt it streetable? ive seen plenty of hondas running more then that on the street. as long as its done right you could run almost as much boost as you want. oh and i did say that it is possible to get 450hp on a crazy fully built non-streetable engine in that post too. which is basically your friends ls/vtec. so what exactly are you trying to say? if anything you just proved me right. and 21psi really isnt that much as long as you have the internals and fuel delivery to back it up. i mean theres a guy in hollywood for one example with a 2000 integra type r running 28psi of boost daily driven. and he turns it up to 32psi for the track although it could handle 40psi. but at 28psi he only puts out about 425hp because its DAILY DRIVEN.

so what exactly you trying to say?:confused:

Okay here it is again. Anything running 15 or more lbs should be built and if not then have fun putting your block together after one run and also you said here that you'd be lucky to break 400 hp w " ONLY " 21psi and the setup i provided proves that wrong. I may have a different idea when it comes to " streetrable " by that I mean legal and no one boosting that amount is legal. What am I trying to say? If you are boosting that much you should break the 400 mark easy and if you're not you have some tuning problems.

it is legal here in wisconsin because we don't have emmission testing so ha ha to all of you.

Same thing in Florida.

damn youre way off base man. listen carefully, i never said that engines running 21 psi of boost didnt need to be built. and built motors can be run on the street if done a certain way. what i meant by non streetable was running high compression AND high boost together, thats non- streetable. and i still dont believe you should break 400hp with "only" 21psi of boost on a STREETABLE engine. and it doesnt mean your tuning is wrong either. i dont think you comprehend how much 400hp is. and someone boosting that high could be street legal in certain states like these other guys said. (bastards, i get stuck in the state with the strictest smog standards and you guys dont even get tested:mad: )

Alright dang. Take a deap breath and relax. This thread is so far off subject already anyway. Thanks for the deep discussion but I'm done.:)

AMEN.. we should all hold hands and goto pep-boys and buy some APC altezzas now ;)

hey man, if im goin to pep boys im not just getting altezzas, im getting the lighted neon shift knob, undercarriage neons, neon interior striping, american racing wheels, and an airmass header:D

Dude... you forgot the windsheild lights.

well why would i list that. the windshield sprayers are a given;) :D

Hmmm how bout custom lights? Get those clears and make them all red. Or is that illegal?

turn signals always have to shine yellow when on but can look a different color when theyre off unless theyre red from the factory.

black housing tailights, or maybe some c/f before that gets played out, if you get altezza's use testor's candy apple red(clear coat after or color will run), or foilatec's red stoplight spray to cover it in a transparent red, which makes it look like a newer gen red tailight, kinda like those on a infiniti g35

Hey newbie! this thread was almost gone! I'm pretty sure the guy has his answer by now. I blame you if these guys start arguing over taillights again. Leave the old threads alone, i think its in the rules....by the way, welcome to AF! :)
