Cars:

My EM2:
-K20a2 engine
-I/RH/E
-Kpro dyno tuned
-2600lbs

EK hatch:
-LS VTEC swap (I think it is the B18B1???)
-ITR cams
-Custom turbo kit @ 9psi
-Custom exhaust
-hondata dyno tunned at 211 whp and 195 trq (same dyno I got the #s in my sig from)
-some suspension mods that may have added a couple of lbs over stock so I would say it weighed around 2300lbs

1st run from 2nd gear roll- The old K series pulled about 3/4 car right away, but then the boost kicked in on the EK beast and it pulled to about 1 car by 100

2nd run from a dig-The light turned green and the EK beast was sleeping at the light, while the K series was ready to go. Upon seeing that he was sleeping I lifted throttle in 1st until he was about 1/2 car back and gaining. We Went to about 100 or so and the EK hatch had about 1 1/2 cars.

I was having a ton of trouble hearing when to shift becuase both cars were so damn loud and he was shifting at different times than I was, so I was all screwed up. I don't think he drove particularly well either, sleeping at the light and all. No excuses though, I would say that the EK hatch was deffinately faster. He did run a 13.5 his 1st time at the track, with a 2.5? 60'. I don't feel to bad about the way things turned out. It is always fun to race two very nice sleeper Hondas

You think?

I'd say he is sure the hatch was faster

yeah, it is a lighter car, the motor NA alone would make it a quick car. With 9psi it ***** and gets. BTW I forgot that he had ITR cams

shouldnt his setup be making more power than that?

Well as I have said in previous posts this particular dyno is a bit low, so realistically I would say that he would be closer to 230-235whp on say a dynojet. The LS VTEC engine makes I think around 140-150 bhp (someone correct me if I am wrong). The cams would deff. benifit if it where NA, but boosted I am really not sure if they are doing him a favor. Honestly I am not to sure what that engine should be making. I do know that his tires, along with mine could not handle much more power.

I think your a little past due on buying a tach.

I have a tach, I really try not to watch it to much though. I think better shifts come while looking forward at the road not down at the tach

Im gonna have to disagree with that.

But nice race!

I am just not a big fan of jetting down a 4 lane urban rd. while looking at the tach. Also a good shift should be feel and timming not watching the tach and then bam. JMO, maybe that is why my 1/4 mile times where not so good LOL. I think what I need is a good shift light, but I don't want one of those monster ones that are the size of a small flashlight. I would really rather have a very small inconspicuous one.
