First time at the track with my 04

With the basic mods of K&N drop in filter and a Thermal exhaust

i ran a 16.3 @84

i soon will add a random tech cat and header and a possible ram air setup

goal is 15.5 doubt its possible but will try


Its a far cry from my old Ford Focus running 14.4@98 naturally aspirated

not bad with the civic. 15.5 is prolly possible with the right tires, although the best n/a time I've come across is 15.6 in a 7th gen.

you must know Russel or Cory they both had fast Focus's in La


My focus was not a SVT, they are even slower cause of being so heavy

i had a t/b, crower stg 2 cams, header, exhaust, intake, pulleys
and gutted about 200lbs out on my focus

if you visit my website you will see the huge *** 6pt Buck that
took the Focus out

that's pretty good ... refer to the "weight reduction" thread to find out how to shave some of that weight off.

15.5 is possible i/h/e/no cat, sticky tires, weight reduction (don't get a short ram intake)

what was your 60' time?
