Nice man
wish I had some real tire so I could've gone faster, wish I didn't have a speed limiter so I could've gone faster... I'm kinda at a brick wall at the moment. Until I accomplish those two things.
a third would be to upgrade the fuel pump so i can safely turn up the boost without worrying about the fuel

some pics in that thread.

if anybody's wondering yes it is being cleaned up underneath there... there are a lot less wires hanging around.. have no fear... the car is VERY potent.

so once tuning is done, what kind of numbers do you expect?

I was just looking at your slips again
Great times, no doubt, but hit the gas on the 3rd amber and you'll be unbeatable :thumb:

remember that was the first time i have been on a track in over a year and a half, i only had three passes. Also Autocross tires aren't exactly the best for drag racing, they're sticky as all hell but the sidewall is extremely stiff... I did have a number of factors against me.
I went out to the track thinking I was going to hit only a 14.5 or something, which I would have been very proud of considering the car isn't where it should be and neither am I driver wise.
The first car I lined up against was an s2000, my next run was against a brand new mustang gt w/ some mods, and the other run the civic wouldn't even line up with me.
and yes the car does spit flames.
