does pull bumper supports or putting holes in the rear bumper realy help?

sr20paisa

do a diy bumper diffuser and strip out the sound deadning, also if you have a velocity stack, get a tube remove the headlights for better airflow and tape up the headlights for better aero(ghetto aero)

sr20paisa

so yeah the "holes" you speak of will reduce drag and will help

sr20paisa

an example of the taped up headlight, yes folding the mirrors will help too

96ekb20

sorry for the double post. computer froze. ya havent done the headlight yet as to we are already maxin out the fuel. isnt it easyer just to pull the rear bumper at the track then put wholes in it though? how much weight is to be lost by pulling sound deading out remember this is a daily not all out race car

sr20paisa

taking off the bumper supports removes weight
putting holes in the bumper help reduce drag, if not go ahead and removing the whole rear bumper that will help too

how much did the tape and miors help time wise ? have u pulled the front bumper support to cut weight if so how much weight did u lose with front and rear gone?

sr20paisa

yeah i have tried the tape technique on freinds integra he said he felt a slight difference but he's deep into the 12's
the sound deadning should weigh more than 25lbs but less tan 45lbs more or less
btw is the p/s and ac still on it?

96ekb20

the owner also has a rear visor on do you think that may be causeing a air sucktion as the air rolls over the car? ya i think he rather pull the bumper then cut whole in the bumper. ya this car with me driving weights 3000lbs with the owner 3190. so weight reduction to a point is needing done.

96ekb20

yes there still on its a daily driven car. its driven 102 miles to the track beat down the 1/4 mile 10-12 times and driven 102 miles back. we did pull the power steering belt for two reason one hp gain and speed stability

96ekb20

where is all the sound damping at ?

sr20paisa

my gess on the bumper supports is 2-30lbs but i recommend they should e on while daily driving

sr20paisa

this is sound deadning, the black stuff it weights alot
use dry ice or a heat gun and a scraper to remove it
look around you trunk, you wont miss it

96ekb20

well a type r bumper support isnt even half of what the ls or gsr or rs is. was thinking of leaving he rear off and moding the front to be like a type r.

96ekb20

ok ill talk to the owner. ya this thing had the rear seat front seat carpet door panels everything in it lol just like a grocery getter would

sr20paisa

i think it's just for show, i would take it off it looks better and less drag

thanks for your help. wish 96+ integras came with manuel window doors to light the car up. but still beable to move the window. hope this car will move to high 14s with the things where adding then next will be better intake and tb then the bottle. hoping for low 14 or 14.0 all motor when done then 13.0 on 100 shot on 91 mix with 114

sr20paisa

sounds good just make sure you have some sort of reinforcement, for the rear just remove the bumper with the support and when leaving the track re-install it and your good to go, it's really dangerous daily driving with out one

sr20paisa

sounds really interesting, hope this helps

96ekb20

do you think since it has a full radiator that if we took a spare front bumper and are roll of hard sheet plastic and blocked off the lower bumper opening for track use only that it would help and just run the heater all the time befor a run and turn right now after u pass the 1/4 mark? and leave on til u shut car off

96ekb20

thanks going back to the track on the 7th to see what the few upgrades help car should of did a 14.9 if it wasnt for the fuel cut. so a retune and few more upgrades and some aero wrok and taking the 205-5016 off the rear for some steelies should give a nice increase
