Filling up the motormounts helps cut down vehicle reaction time,and there's less stress on the manifold.
Cutting the exhaustpipe off after the bend by the gastank,add a piece of pipe on there and have a sidepipe..you loose the weight of bunch of bends and a muffler and flow is better.


good topic this here...except for the idiot saying coolant lines on the TB are better

So Just by slipping the PS belt off It gains about .2 tenths. That doesn't do any harm to the pump? and I can just slip the belt right back on and it's good as new right?

if there's nothing else being driven by that belt..you can just take it off..it won't hurt it

I just took mine off today to see if I feel anything other a hard to turn steering wheel, lol, I plan to convert to electric power steering soon enough.

Wow if your mechanical skills are anything like your english you must be totally correct. I noticed your last post has a lot of big words in it and was edited, did you spell check it???

I have heard many times about blocking off the mani coolant lines and know that it does make some difference, the same way as i am looking for some kind of material to use to make a HM intake manifold gasket that will not let the head's heat soke through as fast. I looked into the hondata IM gasket they make for that purpose for $60 and they said that at sitting idle when you take off at WOT it take's exactly 14-17 sec for your intake mani to cool down the soked heat from the head whichis cooled by the fresh air coming through the TB. Out of curioustity though what exactly do ya do to bypass the IACV I have heard if you either dosconnect it or bypass it it will help bad bouncingidle's which is a big prob of mine, but what exactly do ya do? I heard something about cutting a coke can and placing a sheet of the tin can inbetween the mani and IACV?

What motor were you planning on using to drive the pump, anyway?

power steering is for pussies, remove it, or run with it, oooo 2 tenths, big ------- deal jerk off. don't waste your time with a gay ass electric motor, think about it, that motor has to be spinning all the time, you really think your alternator can charge your battery, power your stereo, your lights, AND turn this pump at about 2000rpm? i don't think so.
