alright. i think my 4 year college degree has taught me that, wouldnt you? and when i asked my question, i meant for possible fit performance part in the future for the GE.
no need to be a dick about it

is there a need to bring up your 'college degree' everytime someone says something to you? pfft.... please man.
#7
Probably not...
I see where your coming from since even on a stock engine the shape and size of exhaust can dramatically change the output of the vehicle... but can't really apply the cart's design since the shape of the cart and Fit is so different...plus the legality issues of emmissions, noise, so on so forth.

Well, I can tell you that unless you have a 4yr college degree (minimum) you won't be allowed to work in the core team where I work, but that 'degree' sure don't mean anything for some of them. LOL! :D

also, im not bringing it just for the heck of it. but dewthedew states that i need to learn to read and i figure that my 4 year degree has taught me that.
i was just commenting on his comment. no biggie. and i agree with kenchan...4 year degree doesnt mean much now...masters ftw.

I saw the engine at SEMA. I talked to the guy, its still a GE8 stock 119hp but improved oil pan, transmission plate for different drive, and new intake manifold.
Pictures I took.

correct me if im wrong, but i believe this is the first time i ever brought it up. you might mistaken me for someone else.

Rather, he was implying that had you actually utilized the vast knowledge that you had gained during your 4 years at whatever prestigious university from which you hail, you may have been able to detect (through various complicated forumulas and algorithms) that the motor which they will be using is a relatively un-modified version of the L15A7.
and just to put a hole in your logic. dewthedew stated they were keeping the engine stock. How would Honda (in conjunction with the SCCA) building >>stock<< L15's equate to the influx of more performance parts for the GE8?

I said "learn to read" because..
They're keeping it cheap/mostly stock to keep it fun. You dont need more than 120hp in those chassis anyways.
Original equipment in the 2009 Honda Fit, the L15A7 is a fuel-injected, 1.5-liter, overhead cam engine, at the beginning of its current production generation. Per Honda corporate policy, a minimum of 10 years' parts support is mandated at the conclusion of production.
HPD will supply all parts from intake through exhaust, including multiple chassis conversion kits. The result will be a modern and reliable engine requiring minimal maintenance and tuning.
Specifically, HPD expects to offer FF competitors the opportunity to reduce their engine operating costs. Engine rebuilds will be reduced, while competitors should also experience a reduction in the need for top-end refreshing. In addition, crankshaft and valve-spring life should be extended dramatically; and most ignition and all carburetor maintenance will be eliminated.

having a 4 yr. degree most definately does not mean that you are smart........anyone can get a degree if they can afford it and want one........i've met some dumb people with degrees and some very smart people without them

What about the guys with the doctorates and masters degrees that can't figure out how to control the tv with a remote or figure out anything with a simple bit of common sense....
or is that just ignorance to get people to do stuff for them? Making 100K they shouldn't have to do too much. But I digress...
