I finally got to the track to run the car.
I babied it off the line(i got the 5s tranny) and i am only running 13 psi with 18" tires but overall i had good times. 1/4 mile times were at 14.4 and 14.5 the whole time top speeds were 97 and 98 mph i think if i run it again i am gonna put the stock 15" rims on and turn the boost to about 16-17 and see what happens! I think 13's are easily within reach! DG -------------------- |

That's awesome Dave!
And yeah, mid-14s are pretty quick. What a lot of you may not realize is that even though it's a fourteen second car, it probably feels faster than that once it's moving. I've ridden in a couple FWD cars that run 14s, and even though they only run 14s at the track because of their traction problems, they are fast, fast cars...once they're moving, both of them feel really fast. I bet that both of those cars(Both Civics, one with a turbo B18-something and one with a built H22A) would beat an EVO or an STI from a roll. Dave, what were your sixty-foot times on your runs? -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...
