A lot of it is the myth that ALL cars can get huge gains from intakes and headers. Working on a 15 year old base trim Honda you can indeed get massive gains by changing to a freer flowing intake, filter and header. The 86 comes with these things already so the gains to be had are far smaller to the point of being almost nonexistent.

Stahp. Also, yes I agree. I know it's been well established the gains are minimal, but still useful with headers and all. But I don't buy the charcoal filter netting some of the claims. Either way I'm more consumed with the other nonsense OP has done so I'm here just to mess with them.

Ironically when I had my boosted S2K, the new owner (who lives in California) asked to see the label on the procharger for the CARB serial number... and sure enough, it was there (I had no idea). |

Have no restriction. Maybe that would gain 10 hp. Big deal. Who cares? |

Charcoal intake filter removal testing & RESULTS
Quote:
If it is an emissions part that is required it will have an EPA executive order number on it. Carb has their own EO number in a different format. Will look something like "CARB XX-XXXX-XX" though the number of digits may be different depending on if it is a component or piece of equipment. Here’s a component EO for fuel line.

"Participation Trophy" kids are in their 30s and 40s by this time.. not Gen Z.
Btw, none of us ever asked for participation trophies.. thank the Boomers for that

I don't know if I'd go that far. It's like saying the RS Q8 is just a bargain Uris. I'd like to think even the BRZ has a different character than the GR86, and the Z4 vs the Supra... unless the Supra went the convertible route (make it a dedicated roadster perhaps ).

Guess it depends on where you grew up. I'm 37, never had a "Participation Trophy"....instead it was lots of "you lost, get em next time"...the way it should be

Plenty of people like dark humor. Go to your local comedy club when some one like Dave Attell comes in, you'll see there are plenty of us that still have a sense of humor.
