1) Is there a Remote hatch/trunk release from the driver seat? I've been looking it for weeks... and I still can't find it...
2) In attempt to awake the VTEC that I thought didn't kick in, I reset the computer, and now the audio deck is blinking with a code at me... I guess it asks for the anti-theft code. Where can I retrieve it? (I don't have the manual:/)
3) I'd like to add a new intake and exhaust to it. How do SRI perform soundwise? I read here and there you get a very high pitched sound from SRI... how annoying can it be? What would be a quiter solution for the intake without having it to be a CAI?
=)

2) Get the code from the dealer.
3) I had a short ram intake on my integra LS and it was louder than a CAI but not high pitched at all. I don't know who told you that. I liked the sound, it was a mid range rumble. Quiter solution, stock airbox. Try a drop-in K&N filter.

hey, dont worry vtecnoon, me and you both bought into it. On the upside, hey! you still get great gas mileage compared to other sports cars!
So spread the word. To other people i have met who wanted to buy a prelude, civic SI, or a GSR because of the "mad crazy vtec yo!" I tell them the truth...its hardly noticeable. At least theyre educated now.

Snoopy, is it you who has those dyno-charts for the vtec motor? post em again. Let the noobs see the *MASSIVE* increase of the Vtec! Raaaaarr! lol..
If you noobs think Vtec pulls hard, you've obviously never driven a real car. Twin Turbos? Now thats a kick in the nuts.

hey Mr. Ghetto ebonics...dont be a jackass and assume i was talking about vtec surges in general. i was talking about the vtec "surge" in a 1.8L b18c1 engine.
Look at the dynographs for a s2000
Looks like a nice linear curve, but at 58 mph, it takes off like a bat out of hell. I'm assuming this maybe Vtec kicking in. with a curve like that, i'd better be feeling it. thats something your butt-dyno can feel.

The other day we were doing the groceries, after packing everything in the trunk and starting the engine, we needed to pack a last minute forgotten bag, how cheap and inconvenient it was to shut down the engine, take the key out, go around the car and pop up the trunk.
I am looking into those keyless remote system, but am not sure where to look for and if they can pop up the hatch remotely :/ any good info/shopping site regarding those systems? (couldn't find any kind on performance sites), and for how much do they go?
