i have all mandrel 2.5 in intake piping but off of the turbo i have a radiator hose elbow then i have garrett t3t4 57 trim .63 ar housing 2.5 in dp all the way back(im in the process of finishing my exhaust so its an striaght 2.5 off the dp with no cat or resinator for fuel i have lucas 440 cc injectors and im using the uberchip tial wastgate a log manfold and its on a stock b18a1
if you have any ideas let me know

who cares about the e.t. .. What was your trap speed ?

scatuli

it was 93 mph

HybridKOOP

Thats outright horrible. You should be almost trapping that without being boosted. You sure your charge pipes are connected? Are you getting a reading on your boost gauge?

trbob16a

something or several things are majorly wrong

are you throwing codes?
do you get spark and fuel in all of the cylinders?
charge pipes connected? you have a boost gauge?

B16C

my friend had a very shitty set-up. jg race cams, gn turbo & i/c, 450cc injectors, log manifold, shitdyne brass ecu, b18a w/ls tranyy etc. he ran a 14.3 on 17" rims, but his trap speed was 104mph (at 8 psi, i believe). his set up was utter **** and he still ran 104mph. i have no clue what is wrong with your car, but with a 93mph trap, i would say your turbo ain't working. holla back

are you sure you didn't run a mile track.

redline201

yeah those 60 ft times suck
i ran a 15.0 with a stock b16a in my eg with a shitty 2.35 60 ft time

just practice launching

and get some sticky tires

something is definately wrong! I'm running 15.0@93mph with an LS motor in my EG hatch NA....with just bolt-ons. I'd have it checked out.


Did you run that 1/4 in reverse?!

D-Man

something is wrong big time..those times are almost identical to my stock D16A6 Si times I was gonnna say your turbo is seized but since your seeing boost that is not the problem so now I got my money on the clutch,My guess is that your clutch is toast.

scatuli

no codes when driving although when i honk the horn i think it shorts itself out it sounds really starnge and when i do that the check engine light will come onand the rpms drop about 500 or so
it says a solid ten or twelve psi when im boosting im not sure im getting park in all cylinders though i will check
thanks

scatuli

i did a comp test and it was about 150 all thw way across with full throttle
any more suggestions

Is your car an auto? 3.0 60' is truly some bad driving if it's 5-speed.

darylfiend11

his car is a manual but the tree went straight greenhe does need to work on his driving yes it sucks horrible but it was his first time and i he has 17 in rims
we still cant figure out whats going on so any help is appreciated
thanks

darylfiend11

First get some tires or learn to drive. I've had some horrible launches and even just messed up on purpose and never got anything close to a 2.5 60ft and you ran a half a second slower than that! Also 150 on all 4 cly is very low, does your car burn any oil?

darylfiend11

no it doesnt burn any oil that i am aware of should i do a leak down test?
all four cyclinders are getting spark some one else said that my clutch could be bad is there any special way to test and see if my clutch is bad i know i suck horrible at driving but i am learning and i dont know if it matters but the light went from stage to green
thanks

My friend just went 16.03 in a stock CRX, 1.6 non vtec. There's something defiently wrong.

DLOTYPER

ok we get the point the kid is a newbie driver,, theres no need to rip his ****,,,,hes asking for help,, ok first check the clutch, i had a similiar incident where i was actually spinning my clutch bad as hell, because in the staging lanes i was just ****** around and playin with my clutch (for example inching up in line, riding the clutch) anyways if your clutch heats up then unless its a dual diaphram,, it looses grip, then next i would check the leakdown in each cylinder,,,what are your plugs gapped to? is your car detonating at all? is it hesitating? what kind of tires are you on? also look at your 60ft times this way here&gt;&gt;&gt; if you pulled a 2.0 60ft you would have prob ran 2 seconds faster netting you some 14.0-14.3 timeslips,,, generally every tenth you loose in the 60ft , looses 2 tenths in your time up top, but i cant explain your MPH though,,,, that might be the clutch if its stock, check those things out though,

darylfiend11

ok thanks very much i will check those things out and yeah i will definatly be practicing on my 60 times but is there any way you can check out to see if a clutch it bad

you can tell if it's going bad if it doesn't grab right away.
