Looks clean,!
Any major engine mods besides the bolt ons in the pics? CLutch? chip? ignition timing? etc?
How big of a shot with that dry kit? 50 i'm guessing?
well, if you street race what kind of cars can you beat?

the factory hole is larger than a din... a din is the exact size hole for an aftermarket stereo... so i cut the plate one din large... then i put in the radio install border then snapped the plate into the trim

if done correctly it can ad more torque and hp than any other bolt on part, and is much cheaper than turbo..

what elevation are you at?

are those cars that are mid 14's running those times with slicks, street slicks, or street tires?

I seriously recommend taking it to the track...that if you are so into "drag racing" you'll find a whole new perspective for the REAL racers who take it to the track.

If you're a real racer, I say take it the track man....that's where the real racers go, and where you earn real respect. Cuz the rest is just jr high he said she said b*llsh*t, and that's ghey.

good luck!

Ps, car looks awesome!=)

street tires for the most part.. some drag radials... i have not been out raicng in a LONG time.. i have some old pics around somewhere if i can find them..

ive seen a lot.. im only 27 years old but have seen SICK s**t... ive seen 9 sec cars make passes on the street.. and well to say they are not REAL racers just because they choose an illegal venue over a legal track is just close minded... you cant possibly understand unless youve been there... this is NOT some 50 cars with wings and altezzas circle jerking each other and making up times... that i have no time for.. the places that ive raced on the street have been very well organized.. and although i have respect for ALL racing.. i have the most respect for people who can control a single digit car on an unprepped road.. that is something that is indescribable to see... in my time street racing i have seen NO accidents.. NO one hurt.. NO drugs or alcohol.... i just hink that when i say "street racing" what you perseve.. is a bunch of highschoolers.. with 17 second cars talking about runnign 12's.. and that is just not the case... in fact.. the slowest cars there were high 14's... my car is NOT fast.. im just trying to explain what it is im tlaking about..

this is opinion.. i think what you MAY be getting at is that my car is not a 14 second car.. and it might in fact not be.. but lets just do the math.. my car AT THE MOTOR stock makes 127.. add a 70 shot.. and that is 197 pk the motor and a pretty decent amount of torque... and then whatever bolt ons ad (next to nothing i know.. but whatever.. minus driveline loss.. is still decent... almost 200 at the motor.. so for a honda.. for a single cam.. its decently quick.. back to the whole the only place you get respect is the track.. well let me tell you.. to me.. i prefer the cars reasonable normal performance.. i HATE more than anything, a car that guts everything prior to going to the track.. loads up the slicks... turns up the boost.. and runs a second and a half faster at the track.. thats cooll and all.. but its just not me.. i like to run cars that are driven as is.. and thats just me.. i DO however respect that the track is safer.. and i DO respect that some people prefer it.. but that is just not me man.. one day ill maybe go back.. but probably not for a while...
