Well, Just said my Hello's in the middle of someone else's thread, Must be my age.

So, Hi all, Thought I'd join up and get some good advise and hopefully contribute to the forum.

1998 CDX 2.5 V6 Hatchback, Auto, with rear spoiler, Very, Very shiny white, 58k.
(looks a bit like a police car !!)

Bulk standard at the moment apart from a Courtney Sport panel air filter, and the 4 bar fuel reg thats sitting on top of my monitor at the moment waiting to be fitted.

I dare say there will be a few "Aaarrgghhs" to the auto bit, But actually its not that bad and even without any tweaking has left many a boy racer with a bit of 4" drain pipe for an exhaust just a distant memory in my rear view mirror, Having said that and reading what some of you are doing to your veccys I'm in no doubt that the tables would be turned.

My main gripe with the V6........... That bl***y flat spot, And my main aim...... To get rid of it and get some low down grunt while keeping the car still looking as standard as possible, a little louder would be nice as well.

Cheers,

Gazza.

welcome to the site Gaz the 4 bar fuel reg will make a big difference once you have it fitted and will help with that flat spot you have

Hi all,

Thanks for the warm welcome, I'm glad to see that there are some other Auto
users here as well.

I don't finish work until midnight and have been wondering all day what kind of response I would get !, also makes it a bit difficult to have a chat cos everyone else is probably in bed by the time I get logged on.

Thanks again,

Gazza.:icon_conf

Morning Gazza, welcome to the last site you'll ever put on ;) Glad you found your way here, everybody does eventually.

I got a 2.5 CDX auto too, but mine's also an estate which means even more aaaaaaggghhhh's than just being an auto.

I love my motor too though and look forward to hearing you going through the various stages I went through while trying to hammer out that pesky flat spot.

Have fun, but hurry up and get that 4 bar valve fitted :D
