Nah, I'm good.

The dangerous figment of wheel and tire you've chosen makes you a risk to yourself and others.

Like it or not, this platform is seen as a natural place to progress to from Hondas. That's the price you pay when you sell a good looking sports car for cheap used prices.

OH, and because this is one of the few cars without an under-hood heat and sound insulating pad.

If it had a half inch thick pad to absorb engine bay sounds you wouldn't hear the TBs at all.

Seems fishy to me.

What parts are for sale, how much, what kind of gains can be expected? Without this info this reads as, at best, a bragging thread for a one-off lucky build. At worst, dyno...
