excellent book, 2003-10-15
Being a ameteur tuner, I bought this book and learned so much. Every question I had was answered regarding B series and even more! It doesnt go insanely into depth about some things mentioned in the book, but it goes into depth where its needed. It even gives you suggestions for OEM part swaps to gain hp for less money. excellent buy... a must have for any honda enthusiast!

Ive read better Honda books than this one, 2003-03-14
I ordered this book and the High Performance Honda Builders Handbook Volume 1 and I highly recommend that book rather than this. Poorly written book but it does have the basics in it. And yes I returned this book back for a refund.

Great performance book., 2003-03-05
Mike writes a great book about performance and every step of engine modification. He goes in great detail, though somethings need to be read twice to understand, and goes from basics on how a engine works to customizing your own tubro system. This book is great for beginners of pros to the art of imports. A great read and a lot of fun. :D

The Ultimate Honda/Acura Engine Book, 2002-07-11
For years I've enjoyed many of Mr. Kojima's articles in Sport Compact Car. I've got the other Honda/Acura books and wasn't expecting to learn much. I was wrong. This is the most comprehensive book on engine performance by far. If you're looking to increase the performance of your Honda/Acura, you should read this book first.

This book is a gold mine!, 2002-06-13
Wow. This is a very, very good book. I really did not expect to find a book with this level of technical detail for such a low price. The section on turbochargers was great! It did a fantastic job of covering all of the fundamentals, without using so much technical jargon that it is over the head of most readers. The 'secret peaks' into some of the world's fastest all-motor Honda engines was also facinating. Even if you don't have a Honda, there is a lot of good, basic, sound engine performance information. If you are planning to modify a B-series or D-series Honda motor, you have to have this book!
