Default Another EG mod!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33713

Install was straight forward took all of about 3 minutes. DYno pictures will be up soon but the numbers were an impressive gain.

Before this mod: 341rwhp

After this mod: 381 rwhp

Outcome: was going to get gears and cams but decided for the same amount of hp increase these were cheaper and look much better IMHO. I should really work for the company who makes them cause at my local meet last nite with my import guys (integras, civics, crxs, and corollas) they were so impressed with the look and gains they each bought a set... BETTER HURRY not many left!

Think they might have blue ones? I heard that blue gives you more horsepower than green.

They help pedestrians see you before you run them over.
But then I never saw anyone hurt with cooked rice.

You should have bought the red ones, you get an extra 5 hp.

I was thinking about sending my car to LPE for the 750 hp twin turbo engine upgrade. Instead of that, I am just going to buy ALL of these lights and stick them all over my car. 800 hp for under 300 bucks!

I'm in there... now all I need to do is find a "Type R" sticker and I'll have the fastest car around!!
