My goal is to break into the 15's spending reasonable amounts of money. Anyone have any suggestions on how i should go on doing that? What to do next..
nice times, cams will get you into the 15's easybluslowtege said:so i went to the track to test out what the obx header is good for. I am very satisfied at the results.
60'---2.303
330'--6.677
1/8--10.321
mph--67.34
1000--13.468
1/4--16.143
mph--84.03
my mods are obx header and custom axle-back.
Best run before the header is 16.6@81mph
Replica said:Torque is everything. When my last car was boosted it was all about sitting in the trq in the powerband. There was no point reving it high. I might have made 120whp at 4psi, but the trq was so much higher than other Hondas. A great example was racing a 6th gen SI. A B16 usually makes about 135whp and about 100wtrq, I raced one on the highway and pulled it the whole way in my crappy DX that stock, might have made 95whp, making less hp and more trq. It you're relying in hp on a motor that stops making power at 6,000 (if you had a FS-DE), god save us all.

The B16 makes 142.5whp and yeah about 100wtrq, now your stock DX makes how much stock? I'm guessing that it's 107 and 112? Correct me if I'm wrong please. The Si's sure as hell don't get off the line too fast, but on the highway they aren't too shabby. I'm not calling you a liar, but are you sure this guy was racing you?
Mind you all that I respect tuners that keep it clean and I'm not the "Civic guy" thats here to argue. I'm learning a lot from reading these posts. Trying to make myself a more well-rounded tuner.
