Rep Power: 303 indeed. i'm upgrading to performance driveshafts that handle up to 300whp.
hopefully it will hold together.

going to get a set of drag radials for next year.

Rep Power: 324 was it a stock SI axle that broke? I am looking into the same swap and I want to stay 4 lug also. That sux if the stock si axle can't handle a fat launch rpm.

Rep Power: 303 actually i pumped that EK coupe (JDM b18c type R)
i took him in 3rd and 4th
he ended going a 14.8
yeah i'm running 4lug still...rsx suspension was too much
the thing about going turbo is that its a type R motor...its build for N/A...
to run mega boost i'd have to lower the compression...if i didn't then i'd only be able to run 6-8psi safely on the 11.5.1 compression motor
if i did N/A build...i might have a faster car...(possibly)
EK hatch weighs 1510kg curb weight
ES sedan weighs 1590kg curb weight
i've seen some built EK hatches with K20a running 12s

4dr sleeper. kinda like my car....except i am slow.(so i am a super sleeper) good work though....i say stay n/a. i would surely impress people that your car is fast and not boosted...cause people are always talking crap about turbo civics for some reason. maybe they are jealous that boosted 4 bangers can beat them? i dont know. end transmission.

I've been to the track many times and have posted slips.
