My car is modified & reliable.

It shall stay that way.

Just observing that the majority of the 'advice' in this thread is from two groups: A) Folks with broken cars telling others to break their cars and B) Middle aged/old dudes who make fun of modified cars but have the same trinket obsession that Harley owners & teenagers do

You seem to be missing the point...Thank goodness you are here to approve modifications that will guarantee an invincible engine, and to let us know which mods are stooopid.
P.S. Re-read you post and you will slowly see yourself align with B...

I'm fairly sure my car doesn't align with either group I outline in my post.

You see, I actually put thought into the choices I make when modifying my car.

Stop tinkering.

Just enjoy the car.

Some of the stuff you're doing seems like stuff an excited 16 year old would do to the 15 year old Accord he bought with income from his job bagging groceries.

We're all excited about these cars (we're not getting the hours back that we've spent on this site, working on these cars, driving them & I'm quite sure we're all fine with that), but you're going to do more harm than good haphazardly throwing sub-par stuff at the car.

But if you're happy, play on man.

I would not recommend listening to any of this post tbh.

You must be some sort of intellectual giant. Words mean things.

Yes, yes they do.

You quoting my posts does not align with what you're trying to suggest.
