Last night I ran 12.9 twice, 12.8 twice, and a best run of 12.678 @ 108.88 mph! Trapspeeds ranged from 108-111 mph with a best mph of 111.30 mph.

I'm so happy! These runs were on 9.5 psi of boost, and using some 205/50-14 BFG G-force drag radials at 15 psi.

My 60' times were in the 1.9-2.0 range, with a best of 1.928

Here's my best run:

60' - 1.928
330' - 5.339
1/8 - 8.155
mph- 86.51
1000' - 10.605
1/4 - 12.678
mph - 108.88

Ya gotta love the SOHC!!!

92HB_HB

whats ur HP and Tq #'s?? gota be mid 200's..

skilzz

Dude understand this...I'M YOUR BIGGEST FAN!!! My love for the single cam and GReddy performance has now gotten stronger thanks to you...after ironing out a few bugs with my VX greddy turbo civic i hope to be somewhat comparable with you. Let me know when your coming to FL...i have a few imports and domestics on my shitlist maybe u could lend a hand with them lol Good Job

Hey good job bro. I have a 96 civic HB cx and I have put in a 99 ex motor and a t28 turbo set-up. The car was dyno tuned at 9 psi to make 205 whp. Now I have full interior and ac, so the car weighs in at 2300 lbs or so and at the track I am having problem getting traction even with nitto drag radials 555r. My 60ft was a 2.34 and I ran a 13.5 @ 103mph at 9 psi. I have tried different launching techs but I am getting to much wheel hops. I have ordered some slicks and soon I will be headed to the track.
Now what I wanted to ask you was what have you used to tune your car?? Hondata, etc..
Did you notice a good power gains with the zex cam??? I am looking for a cam and I was going to go with crane or crower, but if you have noticed a good power differance with the zex cam than I would rather go with it.
Thanks

and to the sohc turbo... hope to join the ranks in a week or two (waiting on parts SUCKS! )

wow that is great...congratulations

89civic1.8T

Nice!!!! I missed my greddy turbo!!!!
Stupid oil leaking, slow spooling, only 189 HP POS T3T4!!!!!!!! I anyone wanna trade?

Midwestrider

Congrats!!! You make it seem as if there is hope for SOHC's..

I am ready to give up and do a b20/turbo.. seeing this i am more eager to get the apexi or greddy for my 00 ex.. to bad i have a heavy a$$ coupe
but i bet 190 ft-lbs of torque is yummy

tararan

damn, that's tight. congratulations.... with the blue box too.... real nice....

Pengo

damn, that amazed me too. blue box and just RC 310s? how much boost do you think that will handle before you need a bigger fuel pump? damn your car and setup are hot man. u must be killin em out there

98civicEX

now that is impressive!!! way to go bro! what are you using to run 15psi? map sensor doesn't throw you in limp mode?

glagola1

He's got 15psi in the tires and 9.5psi in the intake manifold. Just thought I'd clear that up.

Yeah, I'm running the Apexi kit on my 94 Si hatch and I'm loving it. 6 lbs spools by 2700 rpm. You gotta love ball bearings.

12's are awsome. Congrads

JOEY F.

DAMN!!!!! I dunno about NA ne more....14's just doesnt seem tiiite compared to 12's!...hahahhaaha....good werk my SOHC brother! Man, I need to do this greddy setup in my EF....****....

Smashback

I am amazed ... I'm a big supporter of the SOHC but I am truly surprised that you are doing so well with the Greddy. Good job!

CovertFI

i am in the same boat


**** turbonetics

mr2

congrats

JFK78

Hey, thanks for the props guys.

Quite a few of your ?'s are answered in my sig.

My fuel setup is- 255 lph in-tank pump, RC 310's, and the blue box. I use a B&M commandflo fpr to adjust fuel pressure and tune the A/F ratio. That is it.

Ignition is stock, 1 degree retarded timing.

Suspension is- Tenzo-R 2 1/4" drop springs on stock shocks, and Z10 bars.

At 5 psi of boost, the ZEX cam only made power over the stock cam above 6800 rpm. The stock cam dropped off slightly at that point, whereas the ZEX holds level until redline. But from idle to 6800 rpm it lost about 5 hp and torque all across the board.

I kept it in though cause I don't feel like changing the cam again, and the car is fast, so I don't care.

hardcorehonda

please don't flame me ,,guys.
i see that he uses RC310's ... but i don't understand whats the use of them without some unit controlling them (like a VAFC or a hondata standalone comp)

The stock ecu and bluebox don't support bigger injectors ???? right???

Help me out here.

thanxx

ion_four

the stock ecu will run 310's on its own. The blue box just makes it a little better. I hear you can't run larger, but you can, however you will be VERY rich at part/full throttle depending on your power output.

JFK78

Right. The car runs really rich right now until it comes into boost. At part throttle and stomping on the gas at low rpm the car will stutter a bit before taking off. A VAFC would fix that, but I'm too cheap to buy one right now.
