i was reading the forum about civic ex 2001 and civic 00 si racing he mentioned
"My Civic is stock and the Si had exhaust and 2 nice looking gauges, jejeje....and a big Fast and
the Furious spoiler. I think the big spoiler was giving him like 25hp more.........jejejejeje.."

Well and ways is it true that a big spoiler can give you 25hp or more.
Does the stock honda spoiler for 2001 give you any HP????
Thanks id appericate they question being answered im really curious about this.

HAHAHHAA!! Never in my life have I eva heard of that.. So that's why ppl put on those [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG]ugly airplane wings on their cars!!!

In other words...uhhh..NO.... Spoilers don't make you go fast but stickers do....!!!:):tup:

uh... no.

you can't be serious... no really..

I just have to know...... Is this a joke? If it is, I give you praise!

no, spoiler dont give you hps, it give you like 30+ more torque, stickers give you mid-high end hps and torque, hanging a doll on the windshield give you nos like power. Man, i had too much[IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/moon.gif[/IMG]

If you take your wheels off, that will give you a ton more horses....
No, really, all a spoiler does is give you less air resistance and better looks.

Sure, the right spoiler can reduce air drag and seem to improve power. They can also make your car stick to the ground better or screw it up. It's all a matter of design. Watch the race cars that adjust the angle of the spoiler at different points on the track.

o, and also, if you put water instead of engine oil, you'll feel like driving V12 engine car:)

man, i have like 20 post today, i'm bored to death

<< My Civic is stock and the Si had exhaust and 2 nice looking gauges, jejeje....and a big Fast and the Furious spoiler. I think the big spoiler was giving him like 25hp more..... >>



he was being sarcastic or just joking, either way the answer is no

heh, i know, just also playing sarcastism with him, and im so bored, hahaha[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

it's supposed to give you more traction cause the wind hits it and causes your car to stick to the ground more. however i don't think it really makes a difference in front wheel drive cars like ours... maybe in a rear wheel drive...

horses no. down force yes!!!!

no, it make a slight different going 120kmh+, the car is more solid on the highway:tup:

just to add to what BARTKAT said:

A spoiler is an aerodynamic add-on that goes across the trunk or back of a vehicle to deflect the direction of airflow and reduce drag. A front spoiler is technically an "air dam" because it prevents air from getting under the car and increasing drag.

All the spoiler does is SPOIL the fun :)

If you are looking for HP, just add a Type R stickers. I hear it makes your car go really fast.

I've heard that a 2k1civic.com sticker can add 15+ HP...

hehehehehe

oh yea, removing your badges is considered a Level 1 weight reduction.....[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Also if you add an additional spoiler on the roof it will add an additional 25 hP a total of 50 hP! ...No... [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]

LOL i thought it was bad that people were actually thinking that lime green civic with 2 spoilers and daisy rims was real.... now someone actually thinks a spoiler can give you HP??
chant everyone! NEWBIE FORUM........ NEWBIE FORUM......... NEWBIE FORUM.......

K-lx

I hope to god that this question was a joke

lollololololololololololololololololololololol ect................:)

OMG there are no words.:tdown::tdown::tdown:

remember.. sugar has a higher octane rating than good 'ol regular gasoline, sugar water is the best for your engine![IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Actually, a spoiler is supposed to keep your wheels on the ground to keep the car from actually "flying". But that only works when you're going at more or less around 100 miles per hour.

Why do I get the feeling that these questions are intentionally ment to disrupt our site!!!!!!!![IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/IMG].I mean if you wanted to know how the aerodynamic functions of a wing works, that one thing....but to ask if it actually gives HP, that is a little hard for me to believe......I would believe that the question is ment to make our site look like ignorant ricers to others or belittle our site more.....so therefore I'm considering this a rediculous post that in my eyes does more harm than good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
