So i took my car out to boti yesterday. It was my first time out at the track with it since its been boosted. I had a ton of fun, didnt reach my goal of a 12.5, but did better than what i expected.

My setup is a k24, built bottom end, GT35r on 10lbs. RSX-s stock tranny.
400whp 276wtq revving to 8k

My car weighed in at 2730 with me in it (200lbs).
I was running on some no name brand 195 55 15 street tires, open diff, stock clutch still lol, launching from second gear at ~1500 rpms, and shifting into 5th about 3/4's down the track.

I entered Street Comp class, and didnt qualify for the top 8, (wasnt expecting to). So then i jumped in the quick 16 at literally the last minute and qualified for that. Ended up making it all the way to the top 4 running 12.7's all day and got eliminated by r/t.

All in all i was pretty pumped and had a blast all day long. Heres some slips

Next time i go back to the track ill have a Twin disc in with more power.. and hopefully slicks LOL

K7-1Ktrevor

you need slicks big time, should run mid to low 11's from what your trapping.

wolve

Your 60fts are horrible...

With that kind of power you should run at least 2.2sec, you'll be around your goal then.

blk_dc

what the others said.. work on that reaction time thats a cheap is easy mod! Goodjob man!

96_civic_EX

yeah i was hoping to be right around a 2.2,, atleast when i was n/a thats where my 60's were on my street tires.. But i was launching from 1st gear then. Yesterday i was launching from 2nd gear..

If i had some bigger/better tires, and a lsd i think i could been down in the 2.2 range and cut a lot of time off..

but it was still fun, and i did better than expected for my first time out

wolve

Having fun is what it's all about!

Launch in 1st gear and learn to control your right foot(power)
Your 60fts should become better with more power, not worse!

Learn to control it and you'll be running 12.3-4's

Schister66

It may not have been the fastest day ever, but at least you're consistent. If you bring those 60' times down, you'll easily clip an 11 sec. Good luck

paperorplastic

nice traps man, yeah get some slicks and launch that thing and you should well surpass your goal. no offense but Im not sure why people go for high hp and forget that one of the biggest issues is getting that power to the ground. Its like those 1200whp turbo civics that have to detune and lower whp because no way of grounding that spaceship. sure youll beat me to the moon, but down here on planet earth, I have slicks so I win. lol



goodluck man keep us updated with slick runs.

welfarepc

nice trap! the car is screaming for slicks! seems like a fun setup. i want me a K24 for my ED. hmmm

96_civic_EX

Yeah i was tempted to barrow some of my buddies slicks, but it would of fried my stock clutch super fast lol. Ill have a twin disc in with some boost by gear tuning here in 2 weeks... idk if ill make it back out to the track this year tho

But next spring ill be setup for some low 11's high ten passes for sure

welfarepc

heh yeah... 124mph on a stock clutch is pretty awesome.

092eg6

stock clutch and pressure plate?

blackeg

without a doubt. i trap 124 and use an act 6 puck and xtreme pp!

get those slicks/clutch and never look back!

also 27xx weight isnt your friend. might even be worth it to take out seats and other nonsense for the runs.

96_civic_EX

yes sir! Funny thing is that this clutch/pressure plate has been through 1 year of use n/a making 230/190 with about 15 passes and about 15k miles of dd,ing and doing pulls n stuff, now its been boosted for about 5 months ~10k miles of dd'ing and a ton of pulls with 9 passes, and its still holding!! im kinda anxious to see what it looks like when i pull it out lol.

yeah i havent done much weight reduction on the coupe, all i did was take out the rear seats. Its an EM1 and i weigh 200lbs.

96_civic_EX

i know, idk how many people told me it wouldnt hold up for more than 2 months, its been 5 now.. and its still holding up after the 9 passes at the track.


ill post up picks of what it looks like in a few weeks when i put my twin in.

092eg6

damn! how much whp & tq. those stock clutch n pressure plate hold?
can the b series stock clutch/pressure plate do the same?

Honda Bull

Actually, the K24 might have enough overall torque to make that 2nd gear launch work on street tires given how short the Type-S 2nds are (not sure if he has the 4.3 or 4.7 final drive). Wouldn't be much different than a lot of RWD cars which have 1st gears that extend into the 55-60 mph region.

Nice

yeah that clutch is going to go away real soon lol

cool, want to see how she does with the slicks, good clutch, and boost by gear.

96_civic_EX

yeah i have the 4.3 fd, but even launching in 2nd at 1500 i would spin the tires a lil bit.. but yea my 2nd gear at 8k is about 58 mph

96_civic_EX

me too,, there's a possibility of me going to the track for a test n tune and barrowing my buddies slicks after i get my twin in and some more tuning done

halcronator

awsome mph 124 wow.yep just work in the 60s. I ran 12.330 at 118mph on street tires with ls vtec turbo. with 2.2 60'. good job though. the car is going to be a beast. what am I saying is a beast!!

Built K and a 35r should make 600 HP on accident, lol after you turn up the Boost

96_civic_EX

im just gunna shoot for about 500-525 ish on pump once i get my twin and a few other upgrades here in a week or so. boost by gear will be my friend too..

96_civic_EX

getting my twin in a few days along with this http://advancedstreetperformance.com...atcatch_lg.jpg

Gunna turn the boost up a little bit and imma hit the track again this sunday. Not sure if i will have any slicks unless i can barrow a friends.
