sounds interesting but i don't agree with removing the egr valve. it should open only at high rpms and let the gases back in because it cools down the combustion chamber

what do you think about the flapper valve mod? It seems pretty easy, I have the dual intake manifold on my accord, should I do this?

Yeah that sites pretty cool. I just redid the throttle body coolant bypass since its getting warmer. I wont do the advanced ignition, because of my jet vforce module. When I turn it on it advances my timing allready. There are some others im going to try later hehe.

I don't see how any of these 'mods' are suitable at all for street use. They all seem to significantly shorten the engine's life.

You apparently...
1) Didn't buy your own car... mommy and daddy got it for you.
And
2) Don't pay for your own repairs.

Wow someone isnt in a good mood. I dont think to many of those will make hte engine life shorter. If you take away coolant from the TB its not going to do much at all.

What is your problem dude? My parents don't buy me crap! I am 23 yrs old and there is 7 kids in my family. I have had a job since I was 15 working construction for my uncle and now I have a kickass job working for a website! I bought my own car and pay for all of my mods/repairs with my own $$. As for engine life goes nobody here really cares that much about engine life or else everybody would leave their car stock and not abuse our engines by pushing them so hard everyday! But that is why we drive hondas because they can take the daily abuse! And by the way you don't know sh!t
