Hypereutectic only refers to the type of piston, i.e. what its made out of.

And, piston coatings arent legal for Honda Challenge or IT racing.

Hypereutectic pistons are usually coated, they look whiteish. TD people never use them, I forget why it is bad. RJ, you know the most about what you are doing so I will stop asking questions now. ROCK ON! RJs Race motor will be the N/A bling.

They come stock in mustangs up to 03/04. Basically between reguar pistons and forged. Hypereutectic is the process used to cast them. They blow for an engine that is used hard and a BIG nono in forced induction areas.

.RJ, where are you getting your vinyl at?


- .RJ - 03-22-2006

Some of it I got from edecals, and the rest from signs by tomorrow in fairfax.

I don't think I'm getting any anytime soon. I just ordered a few numbers and letters. Just wanted to check on pricing elsewhere.

Finished up the exhaust work today - at the last event of the year I went topshelf out of the toilet bowl at shenandoah and dented up the header:

So I went down to see Dave (SMS Products) to have him fix it up for me and make me a new, more lighter, more louder exhaust Smile Cant even tell the header was hurt Smile I should have taken pix of dave doing his thing, but his work is quite impressive.

Multi-piece bling!

The new hotness

- Dave - 03-25-2006

that's hot. I didn't think your car was really all that loud, so now maybe it will actually sound like a whiny HC car :-).


- .RJ - 03-26-2006

After much fiasco and parts swapping (main relay, ecu, ignition coil, entire dizzy, plugs, wires) I found that connector we used to tap the ignition coil wire for the kill switch had come apart - argh.

Once that was fixed she fired right up Smile Its very loud, and sounds very, very pissed off. H4, watch the fxck out!


- Mike - 03-26-2006

because loud = fast.... right?

that sounds way to deep for a honda, im very impressed Big Grin what size tubing???


- Feersty - 03-26-2006

Did you spraypaint your wheels white?


- .RJ - 03-26-2006

2 1/4" pipe on the exhaust.


- Nis01 - 03-26-2006

That thing got a HEMI?... Tongue

Sounds very intimidating RJ. Very nice.


- lyltoy - 03-26-2006

sounds really good Big Grin

Ok, so is there a secret handshake for CV boot clamps?

Those goddamn things are a pain in the ass - I put new das boots on my spare axles. And to top it off, Redline CV2 smells like pure, concentrated vomit. Ugh.

That's a good question. When I was rebuilding my CV joints, I had terrible time getting those god damn clamps to tighten. I ended using channel locks, and prayer before I got them to tighten sufficiently. Or you can just say fuck and using big ass zip ties though they need to be checked often.
