i remember the time a whole bunch of us went over there and trolled the hell out of that site. we were having competitions to see who could get banned the most, or who did the best thing to get banned. ahh... good times.

way back when you had all the trolling parties, is when i joined your board...

So if you have any questions about my car, go ahead and ask as I amstill registered here. No need to go posting and monitering between forums and bashing behind backs, I am here, yet have not recieved any PMs... no need to start stuff on other boards and cause useless drama.... So what do you want to know?

Yeah, I wish people would do a little research before doubting. If you search through my Cardomain you can see all the mods, pictures, and videos of the car and motor.

As far as a dyno, that will be within the next few weeks since I NEED to get the S-AFC2 tuned. These huge cams and all the head/manifold work could use a good tune. I'll be sure to post it no problem, but as we all know, a dyno is not everything.

As far as the Mustang thread that started it all, i did pull on him, and that was before the cams and head work. the saleen that was with him never raced since he had 2-3 other people in the car. and a riced out M3 couldn't keep up with either of us, it was an older boxy style. we all pulled into a gas station and they both asked if I was turboed...lol i have 4 people that can vouch this story that were there.

Last week I was dead even on the highway with the new Grand Prix GXP. not too bad I must say.

Here is a quote from a local board from a guy who owns 3 hondas and a wrx we frequently meet with... " " ... for one, you kept up with my wrx pretty good (Still got ya ) without a tune...."
"...Halik, I road in your car. And its cool and loud and sweet cause its a dsm. But I would put my money on the spectra from a light/roll/whatever..Sad I know, but you just don't have a clue that it is pretty quick.....And you know damn well I will walk you with the wrx halik...light/roll/whatever... ""

I do not think my car is FAST, but its quicker than most think it is. The 02+ spectras are the ones with the best motors and most potential. the t8d motor is a lot stronger and performance friendly than most think. the rods are beefier than a stock b16s and spec-v rod and some DSMs. the only thing really limitng the motor stock is the low 6500 redline and the 9.5:1 compression. both soon to change. I have also done almost 200lbs in weight reduction.

No not at all, and it was never stated I was stock, since it was posted on the other board, my car is well know there and the mods were all known. back then i had all the mods i do now minus the Cams, Ported head, Ported Manifold, larger throttle body. Back when I had just a CAI and cat-back exhaust, i raced many EX civics, some with equal mods and had 5-6 cars by mid 3rd gear.

Not as much as you think. I do all the modifications or installs myself. Header, cams and crank pulley, front strut bar are about the only things simply bolted in. even then, the cams were the first prototypes of the grind (268/268 330lift 8deg more overlap) the rest is all custom.

stock fox body 86-89 mustangs have around 215 hp (could be off a 5 hp) and arn't as fast as you people think. most 5.0 owners around here just throw on flowmasters and dump the exhaust to make them sound good but thats about it. i like them because they are light compared to my (Z28) but take gears to really wake them up. nice cars but don't fear them if you have a lot done. they can barely beat a new 6 cyl. mustang. Not hating your kia you've got some $$$ in it, not into all the lights on the inside but then again its your car and your $$$. so who cares what i say right. ha. good kill

ok since your on here and the streetkiaz site i will ask the exact same thing. like i said. i would like a dyno sheet proving that you can pull some good hp/tq.
i am not talking about your mustang story. if thats what you say then thats you. i personally knew a guy with a 90 5.0 pushin 300hp with simple things he did. so forget that. i want proof that you can pull on my car. i want the list of mods. i mean i searched for you and found you. i don't want to search for your mods and stuff. so you tell me. what is your setup?
i am gonna post this exact same thing on streetkiaz.

the link to my cardomain is in my sig and profiles on both sites... but here is the current list of performance mods... (pictures can be seen on the car domain http://www.cardomain.com/id/kevo_dafro )

Custom polished cold-air intake
KFX 5mm Overbore Throttle Body (black ceramic)
Custom race P/P Intake Manifold (black ceramic)
Custom Race P/P Cylindar Head (black Ceramic)
Stage 3 Colt Cams (268deg, 330 lift)
KFX 4-1 stainless steel header
Dual 2.5" glass packs
2.25" header back exhaust (black, no cat)
Apexi N1 muffler (black chrome)
Custom 4awg ground wire kit
torque damper
Polished Oil Catch Can (no PCV)
12lb. NRG Dry Cell Racing Battery
KFX billet light weight crank pulley
KFX solid nylon motor mounts
Apexi S-AFC2 (untuned)
modified shift linkage and Pacesetter SS (3.3" total throw)
almost 200lbs weight reduction...

I have various other stuff, but thats the stuff that counts. And you are specifically asking me what would prove my car would pull on yours ? have you been to the track? you said you are getting a short ram intake, so basically your car is stock ? I can tell there would be no challange at all lol not being cocky, but its pretty obvious. the motor in my car stock to stock makes 5 more ft/lbs of torque, with less compression and rpm, stock. these motors are really bottled up too from factory.

you ever raced a bolted SER Spec-v ? i have plenty of video of me and one race (before the cams and head work) and we were even other than his jump off the line due to the qr25, (torque!)


and i couldn't agree with you more about the older 5.0's they are not as fast as many think, but CAN be. you never know unless you line up with them. they are everywhere around here (detroit)

your claim was that your car would own most of our civics. and i know hp isn't everything, but i don't think im asking alot. i just want you to back up what you said. thats all. if you show me a dyno sheet with your car and some numbers i will let it go.

Umm have you not been reading what he is saying? He said he is getting some dyno sheets in the weeks to come.

As I said when i get one I will post it....but i guess all the other witnesses, video and other cars and mods above prove anything lol

hp to wheels? i am not sure since i have done so many mods at once rather than one at a time. simply looking at the fact, stock to stock they make similar hp but mine makes 5-6 more ft/lbs torque. and has less compression and is more restrictive stock. so the potential is more than there.

no track time yet. the track is closed, and is only open like may through the end of september. so in that time i was more busy with my own car, fabricating the first supercharged sentra and a few other projects we had going.

to give you an idea, the SC Spec-v uses a Procharger unit, and dynoed 230whp at only 3.75psi and header + exhaust. We are currently awaiting the 8psi pulley for the stage II kit we will be selling. (on video)

My business partners Sentra (the one in the video's above) just finished the FIRST VQ35 swap. Meaning the 350z motor swapped into the spec-v. Totally stock motor with just an exhaust no headers, it ran 12.9@108 (slips and video soon) just last night! soon it will be fully bolted plus a 100-shot lol

Then there is my car which i do when i can in between making some arts we sell, my current day job and of course life.

A bit off topic, but gives you an idea what we are up to and why i would not bother bs-ing about my own car.
