    "A" goes before all words that begin with consonants.
    with one exception: Use an before unsounded h

    "An" goes before all words that begin with vowels:
    with two exceptions: When u makes the same sound as the y in you, or o makes the same sound as w in won, then a is used.


    What kind of car is that? "A" SHO Taurus, fine sir. *petite bow*

    What "AN" Enormously underrated SHO Taurus you have there.


    Not trying to sound like a dick...just helping. I really like SHO's though

    You're a funny dude... *petite bow*

    I do have to interject, though. You can't correct someone's grammar if your's isn't on point...in your first post, you said ,"A SHO, no "AN" SHO" which of course is completely incorrect being that you meant to say "NOT "an" SHO"

    Furthermore, the car has never been, is not, and will never be a SHO Taurus, but a Taurus S.H.O....which is why he feels it necessary to put the "an" there because of the vowel sound of the letter "S".

    LOL...I like being a dick....do GET IT SKRAIGHT POTTNAH! *and I spelled that phonetically*

    I want in on this senseless shenanigans. Don't be too alarmed, I only drive a non turbo 626. It's pretty docile and roomy. I've been wanting to run an S.H.O (that's how I say it) for the longest. Slimm, make sure you get yourself a good clutch because you're gonna need it

    K series 626. That's right. It's got a K in it.

    I didn’t use "NOT" purposefully, to make the statement short and less demeaning. Almost cutesy if you will lol

    Lol, I always thought they were referred to as SHO (show) not S. H. O. (ess h ohh) I do apologize for that mistake

    No one can call you a dick if you are teaching them something, knowledge is power, son!

    It's definetly rated, "A.G." Bruh! It's all good in the hood! Baby makin music, Man, baby makin music.

    Really, only people who don't own one call them SHOs (Shows). They may in the naming of the car call it a SHO like,
    "I'm bout to jump in the SHO and drag this sorry ass Integra"
    or
    "This fool tried the SHO, and I left him in oil enriched tailpipe smoke"
    I've owned at least one for the last ten years, and every SHO owner I've ever met called it an S.H.O...LOL

    LOL...I recognized you had a rather dry wit, which is why I teased you about the whole "being a dick" comment. I was just sayin I sometimes like to be considered one...usually means you're being a know-it-all. But we good!

    S.H.O. = Slow Heading Out



    Congrats! I thought I was the only one rockin a Ford Taurus on this site. Incase you didn't already know, check out the SHOforum for TONS of information on your newly aquired grocery getter.

    Also, here in blacklanta we SHOwners are lucky enough to have a nationally recognized mechanic amongst SHO enthusiasts. You can find him HERE.

    Remember: Third gear is your friend. They say it was crafted by Jesus himself. :boobies: Mods are expensive and with little gain in HP. However, these yamahammers LOVE boost... but it comes at a hefty price.

    Last but not least, GOOD LUCK. These cars are maintanence bitches but a lot of fun, nonetheless. I still get a hard on everytime I hear the secondaries open up at 4k rpms.

    S.H.O= Smokin Hondas into Oblivion

    Tell you a secret, I get mine to open at 3.5K with my BBBs!

    Nah, you're not the only one, Bruh! I've had at least ONE SHO for 10yrs now.

    BTW, Doug Lewis does GREAT work and he's a cool ass Dude, but FPS is horribly overpriced. That comes with the territory of owning an SHO though...you actually have to become a specialist yourself.

    Is your name JC? If so, mine too...

    I've got a couple mods done to mine. Little bit of column A, little bit of column B.




    And... a familiar sight for all SHOwners:

    The one posted above is at North Texas Performance in Dallas, TX under the care of TexanTony (if you are on SHOforum you should know of him). He's been doling some work for me. I was supposed to have her back last month but its going to take a bit longer.

    This one is stuck in San Francisco (where I lived before moving here). It will be Tonys SHO (part of the payment for the goodies hes doing to my silver beast).

I'm working on mating an Eaton M90 from my SC to my 96 V8 SHO...that'll only be a $5000 modification.

    That's a completely loaded question. With the 3.2s, you can stroke them to 4.2 and give them all forged internals, open up the heads, change the cams, bump up the compression to close to 11:1, add a few bolt ons, and get 340hp plus out of them naturally aspirated. I've read articles where the Noble M500s (which run the same engine) in the twin-turbo config get as much as 700-800hp. ABSURD!!!

    What's WORSE is that the dayum things don't have a real redline. I've dropped mine to 3rd on the expressway and carried it up to 115mph in 3rd gear!
    Still think your 626 wants to line up with one of these?

    Yep. I think I wanna run you more so than slimm now. There's a huge difference between that 626 of your buddy's and mine. When this gonna happen?

    Of course you wanna run me, I got a big ass mouth and talk alot of shit...but understand...I don't run for fun, Slimm does! You line up with me, I'm takin a part of your life when I leave. When your mind wraps around that, let me know. OH...and I don't race my SHO. I've got something else for lining up with you fools!

    I corrected that for you, BTW. So let's review.... You talk crap and can't nor won't run me nor back up your point but you swear by the laws of physics that you can touch my car and if not with the SHO, then with another car. Bravo for the "other" car. Ok, fine and dandy so let's prove your theory. I wanna run for pride. You can't quite put a price tag on that. I just want you prove your theory.

    K series 626. That's right. It's got a K in it.
