Rep Power: 0 Yay, finally finished my Venom 400 install. Man, it was so easy, most difficult parts were deciding on module placement and routing the led through the firewall, the rest was cake. I have to say, not as responsive as I thought (a bit more responsive nonetheless), but I knew it wouldn't be since it just adds more fuel mid to wot (starts a little after VTEC kicks in). It does however accelerate through the gears faster than stock. You will notice a difference very minor, but still nice IMHO. I felt a bit more power with this mod than when I added header and exhaust (which I got rid of a long time ago, since I lost too much low-end torque), plus its cheaper. This will be my last mod, until wireless networks become more widespread (at which point I will add a mini-PC) and until my engine dies, then K20 swap here I come. Hmmm, maybe I will do one more mod... add an IPOD like I saw in Sylstad's post in the Member Rides, very cool. Well happy modding everyone , and if anybody needs help on something I've done similarly on my ride just PM me, I'd be happy to offer any advice.

Rep Power: 540 Replacing the tires this week before Solo2 Auto-X on the 21st....Feckin strut problems I had ruined mine. Michelin is going to replace them for free even though it was thanks to all the weeks spent on broken struts due to backorder...almost $300.00 CDN each for those tires.
I'm basically putting together a list of $hit to do for the winter now while the car is in storage.
KW's
K20A2 (god willing but likely to happen)
New Paint
Rear brake conversion to Si/SiR discs
I can already see the towing bill to get the car to the paint shop and the tuner shop so I'm gonna borrow a friends car trailer and pull it myself with my dad's SUV.
