I was also thinking of removing the power steering belt. Let me know what you guys think. any advice appreciated. thanks  |
Welcome to EM! You might have my car exactly. Black coupe too? I have an extensive list of the current and planned mods on my listing in the garage. I seem to be reliably up over 60mpg nowadays (partly weather). A WAI seems to work for our cars, the airdam, grill blocks, and power steering and AC deletes were also all significant benefits. I have run my tires about 10 PSI above the recommended 44 for the last five months and 5-6K miles. No problem. But you judge for yourself your safety. Get a gauge (I use the ultra gauge). Keep a fuel log. And join "team honda". Welcome!!
