The first post explains it. "exhaust manifold and exhaust piping DELETE. I've completly removed it straight off the engine so there is NO manifold at all. This obviously allows less air restriction and MORE air the be pulled thru the engine, especially since this paired with my twin cold air intake!!! (I'd say this must add another 30-40 HP, but also atleast double the input of cold air at the Twintake (hence my handle) so that bumps it to 68 HP)" (emphasis mine)

Troll for sure, but it did add some liveliness to the forum, which can get a bit dull and serious from time to time (do German cars promote German lack of humor?).

I drove a Civic for 7 years and it was still factory-stock when I traded it in. Surprisingly good car considering I drove it everywhere like I literally stole it. 5 speed and just enough power that you could use ALL of it ALL the time, I miss driving it at times it was actually really fun!

I have a feeling that the "twintake" will be a joke around here for some time to come!

I will personally make you a custom "Twintake" so you too can make that extra 34hp ...
