Emanage madness

Hey all

ive been reading about our D17 weakness ever since I bought my 04 in Sept. So the thought occured to me if we have ULEV, why not increase the fuel so we're getting a 14.7 stociometric reading. Then from there add intakes/exhaust/headers and such? If your running lean of course more air isn't going to help increase your horsepower numbers. What do you guys thinks?

Also Im planning on turbocharging the car sometime next year. So why not get the emanage now.

Yeah it will go great with the tornado I ordered from TV. Also that with the flames Ill have painted on the doors should get another 50hp. And then after that I just need some real good decals to make my car lighter! Throw on some under chassis lights and Ill have a fully mobile rice mobile. Able to go 0-uncle ben's in less than 6 seconds.

Hey Im not trying to argue or fight I was just wondering if anyone had actually tried this before? But since the have labeled this a stupid thread and nobody seems to be responding why don't we just close this thing down. Sorry to waste your time, and mine.

Peace
