more than a centimetre of heat

[fried]

in my dc2 vtir, it seems when the needle goes more than a cm fmro the C towards the H, the car bogs down HEAPS. its still got the noise, but u can feel it really heavey and not going anywhere.

SO.... if i CAI.... [as in put a pipe feeding coldair into the airbox] will it eliminate my problem? like as in keep it cool? and hence not make it feel SO bogged down???

is CAI the answer to my problem?

thanks.

i don't think adding a larger diameter pipe as a cold air feed is going to help alot eric, but you could give it a go anyway...

[Rowie]

have you had it tuned since u had the CAI done?

[luzinit]

i think his car is completely stock atm.. no CAI done

[fried]

lol yeah, i got no CAI.... im asking if CAI is the answer to stop the needle from going more than a cm from the C.... then i wont bog?

CAI would make much difference
how old is your car? I think you might need a themostat change.
only $60 from Honda. or pay $80-100 for someone to change it for you

Flush the radiator, change the thermostat, have the timing checked, have the electric fan checked that it kicks in. A CAI won't solve engine temps, only intake charge temp (maybe).

Yes I also think you should get it checked maybe, because I dont think Integra's were meant to feel bogged down from the factory.

in that case my GSi must have been having a "bad day" last nite on the freeway....... to have a VTiR catch up to me....pfft....
lol....j/k. get it checked out man. next service.

u know what? i think im making it sound worse than it really is...
its not like bogging... its jsut not having the same feeling as when its colder....

Give it a service and slap in CAI.
My teg sits under the halfway line all the time even in hot weather.

So dont stress if it is still under halfway.
