    With bolt-ons you are very limitted(non FI bolt ons). You cannot effectively push more air through the stock valves size, stock intake plenium, stock head, stock header, stock ect.

    Unless the car had an EXTREMELY obstructed intake/exhaust the CAI/Exhaust.

    Well I didn't expect the Magna wires to do anything except for maintaine my horse power when I'm over 55. But the CAI is sucking more air than the stock. so I would've expected atleast 5HP added. but I do also agree that my wheels might be too heavy.

    As for the "heat shield"...Well the injen CAI is not as twisted to the right as the other CAIs. so the Dual fans from the radiator actually shoots hot air right into the filter of the Injen. the Heat shield is to prevent that hot air. What's funny is that I notied a slit decerease in the car's temp (from the temp gauge) when I put the heat shield.

    I did not do the tourqe converter change and never tried to hold the brake while pressing the gas. I don't think I will attempt that really. However, the engine mount is something I'm looking at. my car shakes whenever I stop at a light and the steering wheel do shake when I back up the car. may be the guy who did the belt didn't put the mount right cause as I see it, you need to take off the mount to reach the alternator belt and the air-conditioning belt. Another thing I'm looking at is if the belt is to tight although if it is, that means is should pull harder.

    Any more suggestions would be very welcomed. please excuse my english, it's not my first languagh.

    You dont have to take off the mount to change the accessory belts, but to change the Timing belt, yes you do have to take off the mount.

    Its more then likely something wrong with the mount.

    Why don't you want to do the brake holding thing?

    ok seriously here, is a stopwatch the best way to record 0-60 times? wouldnt going to a track or buying a G-Tech and properly calibrating it be better solutions? between pushing gas, clicking the stop watch, clicking the watch again directly at 60...i think you'd lose at least a second in reaction times...?

    I believe the fastest accelerating stock street-legal car in 2005 was the Mercedes SLR McLaren at 3.1s from 0-100km/h (60mph = 96km/h). It was closely followed by Ferrari F430 and Porsche Carrera GT. The top Japanese car was obviously EVO VIII MR (JDM), by far.

    Sub-2.7s for the fastest accelerating stock bike, but that's comparing apples to oranges.

    I just wanted to add that I found out that TWO of my mounts were shot when I did the test so I just changed and man on man I feel some serious diffrience. The car is also so quiet when I stop at a light versus the old times where it would shake bad. I'll have to retest sometime.
