  1. What do you do for a living?

    Well before I graduated Lockheed offered me a spot on their compact fusion R&D team, which was pretty much my dream job, but they rescinded the offer a few weeks later citing "restructuring." Some hotshot researcher/professor they were recruiting probably wanted more money so I got screwed. If...
  2. What do you do for a living?

    Graduated this May with a degree in nuclear engineering, but I work as a physicist for a company that develops and manufactures brachytherapy sources for treating prostate cancer. I moved to Georgia for the job, from Indiana, so if anyone knows of any fun twisties in the...
  3. engine isnt making factory boost level

    So I tried some runs with vsa on, off, and vsa/traction control completely disabled and there was no difference between the three settings. Saw full boost during some runs, only above 5000 rpm or so, and 1 bar from the top in other runs, regardless of vsa setting. So it looks like a general...
  4. engine isnt making factory boost level

    I looked down at around 3500 rpm and it was at full bars from there through redline. I only did a few short runs on my way home from work. I'm going to take a closer look and do some more testing this weekend to see if the vsa is makin any difference or not.
  5. engine isnt making factory boost level

    I noticed a similar lack in performance recently, and checked my boost levels after seeing this thread. They were 2-3 bars from max, where I saw full bars when I initially bought the car. I fully deactivated the vsc and traction control and am seeing full bars on the boost gauge at WOT...
  6. Tire pressure...

    Bought my car in late July in Indiana. I was on a tight time crunch to move to Georgia for a job (2 weeks to my start date, had to buy new car, find apt. change insurance, etc.), so I didn't think to check tire pressure. I just finished the 700 mile drive back up to Indiana for Thanksgiving...
  7. What did you pay?

    I bought a 2016 Civic EX-T in the end of July, when I was getting ready to move from Indiana to Georgia for a new job after graduating uni. I ended up paying 22,300 USD out the door, so about 20,600 USD or so for the car, plus taxes and any fees. Probably could have negotiated a little...
