Default i'll try this again: my simple CX part 2

sorry about the first post, i guess i deserved all the 's

hopefully the pics work this time.





mods include:

aem 1 piece cai
dc sports 4-2-1 header
2" custom exhaust
greddy evo muffler
all on a b16a3 with slightly modified valve cover

ground control coil overs
integra front susp.
99 civic ex option wheels
wings west front lip

del sol seats
del sol shifter

not many mods but i am pulling a 14.17@96mph on street tires (2.1 60-ft.)
i was wondering if anyone had suggestion to improve my times with this setup (on street tires). any help would be greatly apprectiated. your thoughts about the car are welcome, too.

You aren't gonna get your times much better, maybe a tenth or two. Not much left to get better on that 60' on street tires. 2.0 is doable though.

Nice wheels, Honda Optional? I want those!!

Your grounding strap makes me giggle.

You got your self one nice John Deere lawn mower

Whats up with the 2" exhaust piping? IMO, that would be kind of restrictive.

yeah man funny as hell Valve Cover!

Anyways those are very impresive numbers for what you have done...at what elevation was this? and the lowest 60ft time ive gotten on aziens were 2.1ft...anyways if its true more power to you...literaly!

edit: and yes your exahust setup is resricting your flow

well, i think it's time to get a new digital camera. the engine bay was a nice shot but the others could've been better.

nice car!
