Well, not in my car.....

It was actually my buddy Victor's car! We started this project about 1.5 months ago. It is a 1992 Honda Civic Si Hatch. It had a stock 1994 GS-R motor w/ NOS Plate system and was running consistant 13.0-13.1 passes! We then decided to go turbo for an IDRC event here in AZ a few weeks ago. We had some tranny problems during tme trials that prevented us from running. We put a new tranny in that night and got the car running for the next morning for last minute qualifying. We ended up running a 12.1 on our first run and 12.0 on our second run @ .8 Bar. It wasn't enough or us to qualify so we eneded up running brackets.

We dynoed the car at .7 bar on 110 octane, 16 degrees timing, 310cc injectors, 8:1 FMU and ended up with 275 hp & 190 torque. Our a/f ratio with the sniffer was at 12.0:1 at these boost levels so we decided to keep the car the way it was.

Up until this Saturday a 12.0 @ 115 was the best 1/4 mile pass we had. There was an event hosted by a local speedshop @ Speedworld Motorplex that we ended up running in.

We decided to swap out the 310cc injectors for a set of 370cc injectors. 1st run of the night Victor pulled an 11.5 @ 119 @ .9 bar. We were very surprised that just 2 weeks before we ran .5 seconds slower. 2nd run of the night Victor pulled an 11.4 @ 119 @ .9 bar. 3rd run of the night 11.32 @ 123 @ 1 bar of boost. We were very surprised that the car ran these numbers. We were shooting for high-mid 11's and ended up close to a 10 second pass.

We are going to the dyno again on Thursday. We are going to hook the NOS plate system back up and tune the car with the NOS.

Hopefully, we will run a high 10 second pass on the bottle!

 

beautifull, if i wasnt stuck working 7 days a week i might have been there to see it.

 

That is ******* sick! Liek I said (in the SW Forum)...whats nice about this setup is that its not anything "exotic"...its a "basic" setup that anyone (almost) can build and haul ***!

Hmm...booooost is niiiice.

 

wow... on only 22in slicks.... id love to see what it would do on 24.5in....... very impressive... looks like the times went faster with each run too..... cant wait to see a 10... good luck

 

was it a red hatchback? and how did u like the event? and i think i saw you there also. i was working at the scales.

 

Yes its a red hatchback.

 

Yep, on 22x8x13 slicks. He was spinning them on the top end. Out of the hole he was pulling 1.7 60' times! He is going to borrow my 24.5x8x13 MT's this weekend when we hook up the NOS plate system! It should be fun! I will take some pics and post them tonight or later tomorrow!

 

This weekend? When you guys heading out there and which track? Id like to check it out.

EDIT: Oops nevermind...Im going to the Dunes this upcoming weekend Yay!

what kind of suspension is he running on this car?

 

Tokico Illumina's and Ground Controls (300/600)

 

We are going to dyno @ Street Flight with the Bottle! We will probably run @ Firebird rather than Speedworld!

 

Sweet! Make sure you post up the results.

Say "whats up" to the guys at Street Flight for me.

 

what size shot u going to spary

 

sweet! i wanna see it. i should run up there next time theres an event. if you ever bring it down to our POS track (SIR in tucson) let me know.
i would love to see that beast run
congrats BTW!

 

Whoa!!!! Very nice times I'm happy for ya.

I hope you hit tens!!!!!!

 

What kind of 60fts? Stock axles?

 

 

We are thinking of a 50 shot on the NOS plate system! But, we are going to play with the fuel jetting on the dyno. I was thinking of trying to compensate for the NOS and for a little more boost by adding a larger fuel jet once the nitrous kicks in.

 

Victor was pulling consistant 1.7 60' times. They are stock 1994 GSR axles. We have had problems though. We have already broken 3 axles so far.

 

Hey Louis -- Great times, im glad to hear that our manifold is working out for you. Will you guys be gong up to sema this week? I also have an idea for your car for a bit more accurate fuel delivery that might work out well

email me at geoff@z10eng.com

 

Victor, Ben & Andy are heading up to SEMA! I will be here, but the shop will be closed. I will probably be working on my block at the shop. I am very surprised on how well the car is doing.

 

Congrats, wow! awesome numbers, Im curious as to when his vtec is coming on at, any idea?
Also when you dynoed was that open downpipe?

Dammmmmmmmmmmnnnnnn.... Good job!!!! I hope to be running in the 11's also once I get my car built!!!!! Seeing this really encourages me. Congrats!!

 

cool seems like we all go to StreetFlight. Oh yeah good run for your friend.

 

Is this the same car that geoff said ran a 12.0 in a hb? You made it at ~10 psi w/ a 3" dp? Very quick.. Just curious though, is it still a street car? I'm assuming it's not any longer since it only weighs 1900lbs. Sounds like you're real close to 10's. Congrats.
