?

A little slower and in full sentences for the old people please.

Reading between the lines of your scattered sentences and toughts, I'll guess you have an SA and the chacoal canister is built into the air cleaner lid.

Removing it will not improve performance.

sorry.. i was in a rush to go to the movies... tokyo drift. not too bad. nice ****** cars. but wat else would u expect?haha

ya. it is an SA.. and im talking about the thing weld (i think)( under the intake hood. is it the charcoal cannister? and whats that do?

Same thing the newer ones that are mounted on the shock tower do, collect fuel vapors from the fuel tank. When the engine is started/running, the vapors are sucked into the engine.

Movie any good?

i liked it... made me wish i had more rwhp.... drifting does look like a hell of a good time, but im not ready to **** up my car.. haha.

so today my dad bitched at me for wanting to mod my car.... ha. "its not a race car, dean" "THATS CUZ U WONT LET ME PUT ANY ****** MOONEY IN IT!!" haha. i love those convos.. hahahaha...

I would bitch too about too many mods or risking an SA racing it. They are getting harder to find in good condition. Course, I'm old too. lol

dean23

well that i understand. i dont wanna race it... jsut **** of every ricer i see at skool. ha. speaking of ricers... i saw a civic as ricey as it gets, pulled next to it at a stop light.... he was asian... i dunno if u guys think thats funny, but im still an immature 16 yr old. so i laughed it up....
but with the mods... he bitches about stmall stuff.. like mech seconds. new exhaust... upgraded igniton. its gettin on my nerves... so i bought a stock intake, and cut it up for a "ghetto mass airflow". that made him mad... then he heard me drive away... i swear it makes my car sound turboed.... and gives it a lil kick.. ill notice how much after i get that new clutch in... o, about that.. give an opinion on my other thread.

well tell your dad they are not mods but they are reliability upgrades that wont fail in the future like the exsisting 24yr old parts and if that dosnt work move out of home....

thats how i solved my Problems.. just left hahaha theres no need to argue when there wasnt a real point...

Dougster

Yes "reliability" upgrades sounds good...

I put on a new "Reliability upgraded" cone intake on my 85 GSL-SE and it improved air flow & saved weight...

But then I am pretty old too...

dean23

i liek reliability.... especially at 16. but ya i cut up my intake for some better airflow..
it definately worked. makes my car sound nice too. Almost liek a turbo in my oppinion
