If you have a Honda or Acura B, D, H, or F-series motor, a Ford 289 or 302 small block, a Ford 351 Windsor, a Ford 5.0L EFI engine, or a Chevy small block with distributor, you might want to ditch that old-school distributor and replace it with something more complicated. AEM is now […]

5Zigen is a hardcore tuner company — so hardcore, in fact, that reading their website is kinda like reading Spanglish, except instead of Spanish it’s Japanese, and there’s no “ish” at the end of it. Their website may not make much sense, but 5Zigen does make some cool parts, like this muffler and accompanying exhaust […]

I like turbos. They make funny noises when they spool up and even cooler noises when they blow off — it’s like your car is farting, but so much cooler. Turbodiesel trucks, though, are a different sort of animal. They spool up and blow out lots of black smoke, which is similar to my farts, […]

(Thursday, April 24th, 2008) Well, TLC certainly is hiding the fact that tonight begins the fifth season of Rides.  We have our Foose back!   There’s also a new American Chopper, featuring some scantily clad females — better than a scantily clad Mikey.

In the tuner scene, no wheel has made more of an impact than the Volk Racing TE-37. Introduced in the ’90s, this wheel’s hotness and style have stood the test of time. Nowadays, though, people want something bigger than a 17″ wheel for their car, so Volk Racing has come out with a 20″ size […]

Know what I like? Switches. Big fan of the toggle switch. Wire them for whatever you want, it doesn’t matter to me — I just like ‘em. Even better, I like switch covers.  Let’s say you have a mobile switchbox for your adjustable suspension, and you want to make sure you don’t accidentally hit a […]

Tuning really is an art, and the greater perspective you have on your ride, the better your car will perform. Blitz is one of those companies that knows the tuner scene and makes lots of custom parts to give you a new point of view on your hopped-up ride. This boost controller, the SBC i-Color, […]

You spend a lot of time in your car, so why not make it more comfortable? A new steering wheel is an easy way to make your interior custom and your driving experience a little more enjoyable. Take these Momo Model 78’s — they’re wrapped in suede, so you know they’ll make your hands feel […]
