forgot to mention, those are 15" wheels you have too right?

 

Going to a 13x10 wheel and wider slick would help you het there. Good luck. Looking good so far.

 

The lensos in the picture are 13 inch. If you go to Showtime Drag strip (1/8th) mile its definitely possible weve met, I live very close to it so Im usually there for events.

 

i havent been there for any events...just test-n-tune on wednesday a few times..


darn btw, i was hoping those were 15" wheels, i was trying to avoid having to change out all that suspension stuff & brakes..

Motor is done, Thanks to Matt @Strickly MT Should be dropping it in the car soon.

 

Looking, good, gotta say I like the Integra, but the Civic will be lighter, and obviously can fit the 3 piece front etc.

I know some of of us are curious, why not post up a couple of slips? Sounds like you had the power and weight to get the car down the track, and some more practice on the front end would have helped your E.T's as well. Of course if the car is not running well that can be frustrating!

 

Car was trapping good. I think he just wants to skip the whole 10.5-10.0 stage and dip right into 9s

I cant wait!!

 

get it!

 

My bad i didn't realize the picture didn't work.

 

I Really love the integra and have had it since 2009, I think it was just time for a change. I think going to the hatch will help me meet my goals a lot easier and get me my 9 second pass.

 

I agree thT more power isn't always the answer. It's about how you put the power down. The more we turn my car down the quicker the ET's get and mph still stays about the same. Suspension setup and fresh slicks is key to hooking up and really dialing in boost control to keep the power in check in lower gears. Good luck on your quest !!

 

Well I think a lot of the changes and additions to support the larger turbo and more power will defiantly play a role into getting the car into the 9s. going to a 9" wide wheel from a 7.5 inch, Liberty face plate engagement, Lighter chassis Rear wheel speed and traction control, Reliable wiring. Personally I think those things can help my 1/8th mile times and get me towards my goals.

 

Ive been getting some work done on the car, wanted to share some updated photos.

 

Wow! Way to throw money at it.

 

This build is going to take an interesting twist in a few weeks

Damn those brake lines and booster delete look good! Where did you get them

 

^ Josh you know I wouldn't hit up any one else but Finishing Lines, When I wanted the best of the best. Yea I am really excited about whats coming

 

Thanks as always for the support Chris! That 9 sec quest may be turning into the 9.50 quest soon!

 

A little three piece front mock up and making sure my new carbon fiber hood fit up nicely.

 

The car looks great man. Get it going and lets both go out testing.

 

Once the new manifold/intercooler comes in it can start moving forward much faster. Cant wait.

 

 

I Decided to change my turbo manifold and intercooler setup so I checked around and talked to Josh @ finishing-lines.com and I ordered a Turbo Elements Forward facing manifold, T4, with PTE 66mm Wastegate flange, and forward facing Race Intercooler with 3" Vanjen clamps from him. Josh Kept me up to date with my order through the whole process and I could not ask for better customer service, A++. Parts came packaged extremely well. I did not want the intercooler to get damaged so I was very happy. The quality looks great, Hats off to Finishing Lines and Turbo Elements.

 

The Manifold & Intercooler setup looks promising.
Good luck on your quest !!
