I love messing with people who always ride your arse. Like nafango2 said I always just down shift really hard with no brakes so i stop with no lights and they get really close. Since I am in a low gear when they go to pass me i just floor it, and keep up with them

Velo told me that tomorrow is dyno day and he's hoping to prove that the TB spacer doesn't give notable gains so he can rip it off with a sound conscience.  I may have mine cut to get rid of the threads too ..... the sound is unnecessary.  It's aluminum, so maybe I'll just do it myself by hand ..... dunno.

I doubt that you will feel any difference since you didn't actually fry your coil.

Does pulling the ebrake turn on your brake lights?

nope. Though its VERY hard to slow quickly using your ebrake, your back end slides out really easily when you do it.

Actually from my experiences the ebrake slows the car as much as if I downshift to 2nd or 1st. Maybe thats because I have an auto. I also notice a difference under hard braking if I also pull on the ebrake. I don't think it's that easy for the back end to slide out when you're going in a straight line. Maybe I've been lucky but I have pulled the ebrake going 80 at the track before. But pulling the ebrake when you're making a sharp turn is a whole different story. Usually I can get a drift going at 30 and pulling the ebrake.

It's because your braking system is balanced about 60-40 power distribution .... the ebrake locks up the rear if pulled hard.  If you need better braking, get pads and rotors like I have!  If you don't wear your seatbelt, I can brakecheck you into the windshield!!!

haha. lol, that would suck, break ur face on the steering wheel. well I cant really tell much of a diff, but today i was approaching a red light and i got to about 25 feet from the line and it turned green and i mashed down the throttle and it kicked down and scared the crap out of me. I had to stop a the chevron and go tear off my undies, lol j/k, but yeah when it kicks down it usually kinda puts u in ur seat but this time i think i hit the nitro button.

i wonder what im gonna do with a good set of plugs now that i cant use em.

ive never had a problem with quick braking. If your not stopping fast enough, you can slam on the brakes harder!
anyone have a price quote for a dyno run?

you mean the Bosch's???  save them in your car for the next time someone really p!$$es you off with tailgating ... then you open the sunroof and launch one straight up!!!  The guy behind you will need a new windshield and you can claim that it kicked up from the road if it ever comes up!!!

I will bring this back or try to. Spark Plugs and glass makes a good match just a simple toss at a window and it it shatters with no sound it is great
