the microswitch is the last pic. Its mounted the same way one other 7thgen had mounted. Just that before I had made my own bracket by getting a metal peice from lowes and having it bended at 90 degree angle but after 2 bottles of usage the bracket broke off. Now I think the bracket is mounted right so it wont brake off anymore hopefully. The switch itself that I active inside the cockpit is in the first pic of the shift ****. If you look closely you will see it. Right below my oem ashtray set.

It was a friendly race and he goes to my friends shop too so I will probably go there and see him one day and ask what he actually has. People were honking behind us.
Also, I just had my nitrous back on this morning and it was cold. My bottle wasnt even in the yellow. If it was in the yellow I wouldve gotten more hp or if in the green way more hp than what I got earlier. Nitrous pressure matters too.
Ok sorry have to throw in my .02 here. 9k, if he had an s13 HB could net him easily over 500 hp? Why you say? Because the s13 redtop engines are dirt cheap, and making power in them is dirst cheap. I have a friend that makes about 323whp off his stock botomed end redtop an guess what including paying for his car he's spent no more than 8k =)

When it was 3rd gear his car couldnt keep up. Then he just pulled back and gave up because he couldnt beat me but he was close. This was in the streets in daylight.
there is no way unless u have turbo or u imagined that u were racing him.

i have driven tons of sr20 240's. from stock to 500 hp. my friend owns a 240 shop. there is no way u can beat a sr20 in a drag.

I can't believe I spend 3-5reading this whole threat.

Civic_RedLine, give up man. On a stock motor, running 80 shot??? I think once you hit that switch. Say "Bye-Bye" to ur engine. I think if I remember correctly a built rsx was running 100 shot. You tell me a d17 can take as much as a built k20's???

I want the last 15mins of my life back after reading this crap.........

You did not beat a 240 with an SR20det swap. End of story. If you did.....he wasn't trying. I have been reading all of your kill stories and frankly I am getting sick of your ricer a$$. Running nitrous doesn't make you a car god and as you have proven time and time again.......it's doesn't make you smarter.
