ya man... thats really not that impressive numbers. And these games are irritating. Heres want I want to know, 1. whp and torque. When you get max horsepower 2. How many pounds you are running 3. And the 1/4 mile run of a good driver. And I want them scanned, not typed. I think those are pretty reasonable expectations. Thanks.
Catalyst,
Good job on the car, my guess is your running about 7 psi.
You have about 180 whp. Those numbers at 2900 ft demonstrate a really stong motor. Timeslips are the worst way to determine horsepower.

I am still not impressed.
I wanted a turbo but damn.........i would at least want to have a 14 second car. Thats not asking for too much.

well, SOME of you people are stupid. I know that the car ran a 17.3 1/4 mile with a 2.4 60 ft., because there was a BONE STOCK 2002 lx at the track the same night as me. and as for my driving skills, that was my first race in over a year, and my second run had a 0.466 rxn time. And to answer the question about power and boost, i have 165 hp and 166 ft/lbs to the ground. And I am only running 6 psi. and yea, i have the stock exhaust, except for a 2 inch axel back.
I am going to run 9 psi on the dyno sometime soon. I am working on getting an ACT clutch (since their factory is about 1.5 miles from here), and then i will run it.

Somehow I don't think Civics are exactly geared right for drag racing. I realize we are trying to compare to stock here, but with the added power, the right drive ratio could take better advantage of the turbo. I also figure that the turbo is really going to show it's stuff at the upper RPM ranges. IMHO

Reaction time doesn't mean squat when we are looking at your E/T.

The turbo shows it's stuff at around 3000 rpm. It comes on hard at 3500. Look at the torque curve, it is pretty damn good for a honda. My CRX's curve didnt even look like that, and it made 50 more whp.

i thought you ran it at 5psi?? which means that it was less then 165whp... also take into account head winds and 2900ft elevation.... seriously with a lil more boost, some tuning, and at sea level, this car should be pulling 14's easy... that is still pretty quick for our d17 motors
