I was just wondering. I used to have a honda and people would always change cams, throttle body, intake manifold just to make it a little bit faster. How come we don't have it?

Hahahaha. I enjoyed that one.


OP, he is right. We drive Lexus. There just isn't a big enough market for aftermarket companies to spend money R&Ding parts for our cars when really only the people on the website would buy them.
