Yea the elevations kitts the cars.

I got my turbo from Stafford Fabrications. If you want to meet up somewhere to discuss the kit and see SF's shop, i would be more than willing to meet you somewhere. I Live in lancaster, and yea, i go to LACR. As soon as i get my clutch i will be going to LACR to run with my car setup the way it is now.

i wont be coming until i get my clutch. I have been very easy on it the past few weeks because i am paranoid about it starting to slip. Last night against those cars was a rare time where i actually got on it. I am hoping to get my clutch soon. I already had a shop offer to put it in for free, so i just need a clutch.
Will a clutch off of older civics work? Cuz if it does, that makes things a bit easier to get a hold of.

I call BS. Is that the non-VTEC SOHC D17 motor?

I don't care if it has a turbo on it.

Non-VTEC + SOHC + Turbo = car that's still slow as hell.

I don't believe for one minute that you are even breaking the 15s with that car.

The SRT-4 is nothing but top end.

2.4 Liters + big turbo = gobs of top end. You cannot beat an SRT-4 from a roll with what you have, sorry.

You guys are going to have to do a lot more than that to your cars to get an SRT-4 from a roll.

the non vtec engine actually works better with the turbo... it's lower compression and it revs higher... you're like the only one that isn't giving this civic a chance... i'm not telling you to give in cause those are your own beliefs but give the civic the benefit of the doubt...
