I was browsing youtube yesterday, and found a video that had somebody put a honda intake manifold, distributor, and ecu into thier DSM (2g talon).

There are a few video's of them trying to tune.

Stupid thing would die when they gave it gas!

My question is WHY o WHY would anybody do this?

Either you want a flame Honda thread or you want to see whether its possible and don't want to be flamed for coming up with such an Idea.

Maybe they want to make their car slower?

Not that I would say that it's a good idea or anything....but people doing stuff that most would not try or think about is the reason why you have a "turbo-boosted motor in your car" right now (plus a slew of other thing as well).

If everyone operated "within the box", we would still be throwing spears and arrows at each other.

I know but whats the point of a crossbow if I can shoot five arrows into your A** with a bow before you reload.

With the crossbow I will more than likely have a greater range and acuracy...so I only need the one shot, and it will happen before you even get one off.

On a side...the OP's idea is not a great example since it's a totally different platform. A good example would be the Evo guys that took DSMLink and made it work for them. That's thinking "outside the box".
