this is with sum mild tuning im gonna have it retuned again in spring time. Im gonna drive back to south dakota n get it done at my dads shop. In May im gonna tune it hardcore and get it ready for the track.
I did a dyno simulation 1/4 mile in Detroit. Did 11.433 seconds w/o NOS and full interior. so i guess im close to my goal. I wanna do atleast 10.2 Seconds this spring but my goal is to break into the 9's if possible. Im hoping by gutting teh interior and doing a carbon fibre change on hood hatch doors and etc i mite make the car alot lighter and hopefully do 9's.
im gonna try and scan the papers as soon as im done unpacking all my boxes.

first few times it wont be too fast. but matt with a civic vx and 417 whp ran 11.40's on his second pass. that car with a harder launch would have gone 11.0
so over 500 whp should make her go pretty good. but traction wil lbe a big problem and so will holding the drivetrain together

well i did the dyno 1/4 mile n clocke at 11.433 without nos also thats with low pro street tires. Im planning on getting sum big sticky drag radials for teh track. N ofcourse the car si not done yet theer is still plenty to come bigger upgrades n more hp.
Also once i gut the interior and doo all of my carbon adjustments im sure i can cut into the 10's easy with NOS and drag radials.
Also 2 years ago before teh turbo and all that crap .... with juss the h22 and sum simple bolt ons ie. headers and cold ait intake i ran 13.6s so i expect to be doing 10's this spring/summer with ease specially with the carbon mods n NOS plus the drag tires. All that should help.

Radials are for rwd's. To hit tens you'll be on the widest slicks you'll be able to fit..and they'll be nearly flat w/ 3-5 psi in them. Not dissin, not hatin, just stating what you'll have to do to attain your goals.
