Check out my new ride! Tell me what you think
I just bought a Del Sol, DOHC VTEC.
It has a lot of mods I have no idea what they do, but this car hauls ***.
Check it out here:

What is a 'VTEC' controller? Mounted on steering wheel.
DC Headers add how much power?
AEM Intake?
Looks like an extra oil filter in engine bay? What for?
Billet bars in trunk(from shock tower to shock tower) and underneath rear end? What are they called?
With these mods, what will I run in the 1/4 mile? Gas MPG?
What can I do with a 'VTEC' controller? Modify A/F? Timing? Just the VTEC RPM engagement?
THANKS!

nice del sol (i gots one too lots of fun..) the bar in the trunk is a rear strut bar and underneath is rear sway bar it makes the suspension stiffer and tighter around corners. u should get good gas mileage on it secret is when u want to save on gas don't let the other cam open or vtec keep it under 4000 rpms. i think the vtec controller will just let u hit the other cam quicker not sure though...well have fun with it..

Yep, the Del Sol is a fun car, I have a friend who has three of them, I think, although his son DID just flip one--front tire blew on a back road at night. Luckily, he walked away from it but had some contusions, scrapes and airbag burns.
Nice car, looks like you got a good one. Most of the suspension parts are to make the car "stiffer" so it won't sway and will corner flatly.
Have fun.
