Exit interview

1. What is the best way to refurbish a vehicle in order to get its optimal performance? my best answer is "adding modifications can increase a vehicle performance" I like this answer the best because you can do little things to get a cars "optimal performance". But modification is the bulk of it all without modification you would be unable to get dramatic results that modification offers.

2. Research led me to this answer, because during my research checks I found some interesting data that described certain modifications that truly do increase a vehicles performance. For example state d by "pro chargers F.AQ"  a super charger can give you a 35 to 40% increase in horse power which I find very interesting. Learning exactly how it worked was far more interesting the looking at the numbers alone.

3. A problem I faced was how to deal with work and mentorship. Because I work 8:00 to 5:00 I couldn't find time to work with my mentor. We resolved this issue, my mentor would pick me up from work and take me to his house were the Honda Civic was stationed. It was cool because we would work long hours together doing what ever was needed to be done; but also talking about the senior project or interesting facts that came up. Mentor ship never felt like work it just seemed like another day enjoying the hobby with a friend.

4. One of them was data from "Smokey Dynos" a car tuning company, I liked that they put there data online to show how certain modification would affect the car's after installation. From high flowing exhaust system to piggy back ECU'S. Another source is my mentor's Alex and Paul they really done well at showing me the many parts that needed clarification from my research.
