Naaahh, if it was Fart Cans, Massive Wings, and CF body parts it would be a Honda forum.


lol... some of those wings make me laugh... if only the driver knew just how comical they are.

i mean come on... do you really think your 100 hp (maybe 105 with that k&n filter  :roll:  :lol:) is capable of putting enough power to the wheels that high speed traction is an issue? lol... most of them probably create more parasitic drag than good


It's on the wrong end for high speed traction anyway. Who wants to be pushing down on the back end of a front wheel drive car? Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't you want your downward push over, oh, the drive wheels? And just enough over the back to keep it "stuck" to the road?

I think you guys may be a little hard on the guys with the huge wings, fart cans, etc.  They do serve one useful purpose - catching the cops' attention so the sleepers can get by with one less ticket.  :lol:

I also hate tdiclub. I know I am often apart of the vendor pissing matches on there, I try to be less apart of that site everyday.

:(  Yes I started out on tdiclub back in 2001 as an avid reader before I had my Diesel. It stinks that its gone to hell and a hand basket. I made an attempt to try and get things to change for the better to organize and got shot down with no responses by the mods. I really do miss the technical forum posts from then! Hopefully I will have better luck here. BTW this is my first post ;) is it ok for me to even post here :)?

Well I am here I am in hopes to learn more about the following:

1) VE pumps and how I can build a Electronic one that can rev high and have great timing advancement

2) Porting info

3) General engine building info tips and tricks.

4) Fun, diesel and otherwise.

BTW I dont have the time to post up my current build but if you want to check it out I am hosting it at tdiclub right now. Almost have all the pieces I need to get it done right, but every time I get one step ahead I feel like I have six more things to do...
