Oh and further more if you look in my profile I have a 1993 LX hatchback. I am very dissappointed at the concern for thinking somebody created another user name to get help. Way more concerned with that and not to concerned to help. I thought thats what this forum was all about, but apparently not. I also find it very funny that you think people are not on this forum at that time of night. I did not realize that between 10:30and 11:00 o'clock yow would throw a flag if you made a post. VERY DISSAPPOINTING!!!
OK so you're in Cali. I'm on the east coast, hence the time difference. Be it as it may, the posts were made 20 minutes apart and sometimes, especially on the weekends, oddball questions take a lil time to get a response. Patience is a virtue. Think what you want about the forum, but there is a wealth of knowledge and info here, sometimes it just takes a bit.

I dont understand being dissapointed, your are not paying for advice. You have the right to make choices, if i was that dissapointed with a forum that has people giving free advise i would probably quit posting questions. The only cost for having the privelage to use this forum is to follow some basic rules. The reason this problem was brought up is because there have been some folk's who will try to open multiple accounts. If your case is different i think it was explained tastefully by your dad and it should have been dropped. I hope you havn't offended the moderators who pretty much run this site and deny your father of all the helpful info that is received.

Oh my god!!!!! If you would of looked at the posts more closely!!! You would have known it was a father and son that were posting the stuff. Look at my original post!!!!! It says my fathers coupe....Wow!!!! Oh and don't worry I have been trouble shooting cars for a long time. I just thought it would be nice to get another spin on what was going on. I know it would be hard to swallow some pride and say, "man sorry about that." Don't speak for the moderator. If he wants to drop me so be it. My father has nothing to do with my posts. Just voicing my opinion...

You bitches need to get the sand out of your vaginas...... even if he made 2 accounts so fukin what. You guys are making a big deal out of nothing.

To the OP, put a cam in your car and youll feel a difference. That shouldve been the first thing you did. Something around the .500" lift range, with 280*/290* duration.

Hmm..... Well if youve already got a cam and it feels sluggish at low/mid rpm's, Im suspecting your timing might be off. Do you know if it has an multi hole cam sprocket? When you advance or retard cam timing it does that.

Thanks P-Zero! When I did my post that got erased, I had everything that was done to the motor. I ran a similar set up that he is running now in my coupe. I just don't understand it. My coupe ran 13.30's. I would give his car 13.70's maybe. Thanks again...
