Pahhh, bruh, with all the social justice keyboard warriors out there. Probably not a good idea. Would be hilarious for those of us with a sense of humor though.

This is one of the best days I've ever had! I still can't believe the chances. I actually heard about tuningbynick trough a guy I saw at a red light, who was driving a very nicely built sir. after scheduling a dyno day with tuningbynick (who is incredible at what he does) I brought in my Honda accord 2.4L For a tune. My very first time ever having a car dyno tuned so I was already at a high level of excitement but still I was trying to act natural, just meeting Nick was cool enough. I originally saw Peter at the front while waiting for Nick but I shrugged it off like "ohhey that guy on the phone looks like Peter Tarach....... Yeah right no way that's him" but while sitting on the chair next to the dyno, having dave come up out of no where and ask me " how much hp it's making" just totally blew my mind and my level of excitement went crazy!! I honestly tried sooooo hard to keep cool loI. i still couldn't believe it. I was super nervous but you guys are just soo charismatic! Thank you guys for signing my ECU cover and for taking a pic with me! Honestly don't know what more I could have asked for on my very first day ever dyno tuning. I almost........ ALMOST rescheduled but Nick insisted I try to make it. Best decision ever! You guys are way too cool!

People just don’t quite appreciate the efficiency Honda bakes right in. My old 99 si, it had the oil filter mount horizontally at the back of the block. Right over the top of your exhaust or 2 pipe step down from 4 if you had a 4-2-1 header. Fun way to burn yourself, and create cool James Bond smoke clouds with the used oil that inevitably would run down your exhaust. Don’t recall rusty exhaust bolts though.

My favorite tuner to watch!

2023-05-16 Honda Hello Gents! I’m huge fan of your channel. I worked for American Honda Motor Co. for 30 years until my recent retirement. I have always loved seeing people enjoying and appreciating Honda’s products from automobiles, motorcycles, power equipment and small engineers. Honda’s focus has always been on engineering brilliance and innovation while retaining simplicity and reliability. It was always my dream as teen when I first saw the 1986 Honda Accord to work for Honda. I was fortunate enough immediately after university to have been given an opportunity to get my foot in the door. I was able to work my way up as a Sr. Project Leader in AHM’s Automobile Sales Division’s Product Planning Department. Anyway, I was just watching you guys install a modern infotainment screen on a older Cvic Si. I recently inherited my uncle’s 2014 Mercedes-Benz E350 when he felt that he was getting tool old to drive safely. I received it with only 65,000 miles. It’s in pristine condition, something of a “old dude’s” car. Never driven hard, serviced at a dealer, and garaged for its entire life. The paint is absolutely gorgeous and not a single rock chip on the front end. I wanted to know if you can recommend a similar modern infotainment upgrade which will provide me with CarPlay or Android Auto. Any recommendations you can share is much appreciated for the 2014 Mercedes-Benz W212 : M276 : 4 Door Sedan with a 3.5L V6 RWD. Thank you very much!

Loving the on-road and on-track feedback starting at 16:40!

Just got an 8th gen si so this just motivated me to start working on it now, thank you for this!
