It is true. I ran an UNCORRECTED time of 13.6 @ 101.9 mph on 9 psi. I turned it up to 11 psi then did my burnout, and they kicked me off the track because i didnt have a helmet.
anyways, i am at the shop and i will post the timeslips when i get home tonight. I will tell you my times right now.
Reaction .642
I1: 2.042
I2: 5.754
I3: 8.795
MPH (I3) 81.455
E.T. 13.624
MPH: 101.98 MPH
remember, i am at 2900 ft in 90 degree weather.
The correction factors is ET * .97 MPH * 1.03
So..... corrected i ran a 13.215 @ 104.94 MPH
Our goal is to get the car into the 12's with the stock engine.
I was on some good tires, but on some real slicks, i would have had a 1.8 60/ft time.

the other car was a twin turbo 300zx.
Yea, all we do is build honda stuff. We plan on making everything for the car. Pretty soon you will be able to buy a complete engine/turbo system from us and drop it into your car and go 11's.
I was launching at various RPM's. It spun the tires, so i would pulse the throttle to get it to hook. It worked out well for me.... 2.0 60'

yea, the car is all stock. my upgrades are....
Basic turbo system
Alcohol injection
2.25" exhaust
Denso iridium IK20 plugs
Thats it
Still on the stock clutch.
I was running on some tires/rims i borrowed from a guy. I think they were ET streets or something like that. I still spun like crazy through 1st and into 2nd. Then they broke loose again at the top of second gear. The rims were stock Integra rims.
Im gonna get some real slicks later this week. I want to break into the 12's at bakersfield on friday. Guess i will bring a helmet this time.
Do i need a rollbar to go 12's?
