Re:Honda boost myths
 
I had the mindset that these DSM guys have.......

Then I found this site and realised how much these little cars can do with not much money into them.

I respect anything that is quick for what it is.

So in defense of the DSM guys it's not that they are dumb or really rude, it's just that they are ignorant. If they came here and read up a little in a short time they (like me) would see they had many misconseptions.

Most of them dont wanna know.. It seems beacause there car is soo tunable with bolt on work they become all consumed in there own factory turbo car, in essence denying the potential that exists in other brand names.. I think we should do a big write up on BoostedED9's ride and send it to all the dsm boards.. leaveing out of course that the engine blew ;D..

Now come on fellas, not all DSM owners are dicks. That's right along the same lines as calling ALL Honda owners ricers. I love my DSM, I don't like slow Hondas, but I have the utmost respect for a fast Honda. I like DSM's, especially my DSM, I bought it for $1800, put $450 into it (mind you I got some good deals) and ran a 13.6 last weekend at the track. So I call that pretty good bang for the buck. But still a fast car is a fast car (unless it's a damned trailer queen, I have ZERO respect for trailer queens).

you might own a dsm if: you bought half of your performance parts at home depot, you've tried to bolt your old 14b on your lawnmower, you drop what your doing when the ups man brings a new part for your car and then spend all day fixing it, you change your tires plugs and fuel curves for the winter, your car spends more time being broken than being driven, you think your car should have also come with a flatbed truck, you don't let other people drive it because it's "querky", you are afraid to grab your crank pulley and check for play, when people say is your car running again, you say "kinda"......etc.etc.etc.

Haha, ok I'll admit that was pretty funny. But there also alot of DSM "Boost Myths" out there, like the one that says all 4G63's crankwalk, only the 7bolts do, early 6bolts (like mine) won't. The 4G63 can take a beating, I've put my motor through quite a bit of stress and I still have great compression. Tranny is a whole different story, broke one already running 17psi shifting into third gear, just went into third and never came out =). Oh well, Honda or DSM, as long as it's not rice it's ok with me.

only blew because 20+psi is a tad bit too much :)

i'm a DSM owner,and respect all cars,but.. just a correction,a stock 6bolt 4g63T will handle 450whp with no problem. our stock block has already been proven to withstand 800+hp without signs of weakness.
and our trannies are great,only idiots that can't drive break trannies,and thats true with any make.
