nope manual switch. I hate WOT switch's! I spray at vtec right around 4400 rpm.
you could just put a window switch in, that way it would come on automatically at 4400 and you would be protected too in case you over rev.
You better shift a little faster then that if you want to beat me. JFWY
When you gonna get some track times?

Are you implying that your NA civic DX can beat me? Get real! The only thing you have on me is about 200lb of weight loss which aint gonna do much to a allready light car. I have a d17a2 with nitrous, You have a few bolt ons with a d17a1, if you really think you could beat me than good for you.
Look at my shifting in 1st-2nd in the first video, looks pretty good to me , i shift according to power........not according to the "Redline"
And yes i have run my car 15.2 at 94 mph (which further adds to my beleive you spray), Witnesses include xproductions and vegasjones. which was on 18's and with 2300 track elevation.
Nice times. What was your 60ft?
94 mph should be good for a mid to high 14 sec run, but if you keep running 15.2 then yes I am implying that my NA dx could beat you. I was just faucking with you since you were giving me a hard time before. No I'm not spraying, but just imagine when I do.

Sorry for giving you a hard time but I have my reasons
1. 2.0 60ft, Thats what gives you away to me, takes torque to get that low.
2. DR's why would you need DR's, It not like your spinning through second gear like i am.
3. My trap speed is only 3 mph over yours WITH Nitrous.
4. Best ever EX na run was 15.8, you say you ran 15.1, so .7 of a second thats about 5-6 car lengths, with a Tranny that has a LONG first gear compared to an EX tranny.
5. the fact that your "gonna be spraying when you get back "
6. average time for nitrous from what ive seen is 15.5-14.7 most trapping at 90-97mph
7. long gearing and low torque =s slow times, even at 94 mph i still didnt even hit 4th gear!!!! thats how long the LX tranny is, great for F/I vehciles but NA gears are simply WAY to long to hit low 15's na. Ex hits redline in 3rd around 85-88 mph
You have WAY to many things in common with nitrous users.
I'm sorry that you don't believe me. I didn't come here to start a fight and hijack your thread. I was just busting your balls. Your times are pretty good, but you have room for improvement. What was your 60ft?
I cant resist a rebutle.
1. It doesn't take that much torque to get a 2200-2250 with 14"wheels and 205/50 tires and I have a crank pulley and no power steering which probally help put out more torque due to the reduced weight/strain.
2.Why do I need DR's? "Drag" radials. I am "drag" racing. But really I got them in hopes to put me into the 14's. The stock Dunlops were slipping like crazy, even when I shifted from 1st to 2nd. I thought the DR's would just stick and take care of the problem, but they actually slipped some too. I think I just over heated them and it was operator error.
3. your on 18's and your car weighs at least 200-300lbs more. Depending on your 60ft, with that 94mph trap you should be able to run a high 14sec. get some lightweight 14's and some DR's and you might just pull off a low to mid 14.
4. Skip that for now
5. I'm kinda still in limbo on that. After seeing Jrock's dyno for his auto LX 20whp would put me deep into the 14's. Now if this Crower cam comes out and it produces say another 10hp. I think I would rather go NA. I prefer NA just because all the issues and fabrication with the turbo kits out right now. I was going to go N20 for the price and ease of install/maint. So I still have two months left to wait and see if this cam is gonna happen or not.
6. Avg. times for N20? So what I'm not on N20. So i guess I'm above the average of the average N20 user. So I guess I'm just an over acheiver and your above avrg.? I really don't know what to say to that one.
7. Ties in with 4 and 1.
I am running 14" wheels with 205/50. This affects the gearing making it shorter. When I ran the 15.1 I had to shift into 4th just before the line. I tried to hold third one time and hit the rev limiter before I crossed and ran a shitty time. I have a DX tranny so that right there shows the effect of the smaller wheel/tire combo. Somebody posted a calculator to figure out how the actual gearing is affected, but I don't remember who it was.
Ok sorry to jack your thread.
Good times. All I'm saying is you can do better.
I can't believe people are still doubting you with all the proof you have shown us. Some people are just unreal and can't accept the fact that there is always someone out there that is a better driver than them.

I wouldnt brag about 15.1 on a 50 shot because theres plenty of room for improvement there.
That's all I was trying to say. You have room for improvement. I wasn't trying to start an argument, but I was bustn your balls because you gave me a hard time. Nothing personal and no harm intended. Now letts get back on topic.
