My friends say I should be, because I have a HIGH 14sec. hybrid.....I ran a 14.965 with a fully gutted interior, OBD1 b18c1, quaife lsd, aem cai, apexi n1, carsound cat, 100 octane, on a cold night,.........with bf drag radials

And that was my best run of the night.....out of 24 total

My 60' was a 2.212 on that run too!!! All of my 60's were really close to 2.194 (fastest of the night) and none were over 2.347 (slowest). I dunno what could be the problem?

I always hear about people running low 14's stock on shitty tires, and running 13's with bolt ons and NO LSD!!!!!!

probably.

 

hmmm....had your engine checked out? your 60ft times look decent enough to do at least better than 14.9 dude!

 

ya, something ain't right you should be in 13's man, or low 14's.
work on your driving skillz or if you have already done that something just ain't right.

 

Take it to a dyno and tune it. Get a Vafc for the fuel.....

 

I think you should have somebody else drive you're car to see if its you or if its something with the engine. If its you you need to be shot!! . Just kidding man it has to be one of the two.

 

24 runs in one night?? your car must be tired.

 

I think something's terribly wrong with your car.

2.2x 60-footers is pretty damn good times even though you're on drag radials.

With those kinds of 60-footers I'd say at most 14.4 would be my guess.

 

what tranny? I`d get a baseline, too, maybe you are losing power.

 

last time i ran, i was running high 2.2's and low 2.3's in my 60 ft, and i came out with a 14.57 @ 95 as my fastest time of the night, running a stock jdm b16 sir-II with i/e and street tires with a crappy 300 tread wear, so something is definately wrong, lets all hope its not your driving, unless you had like before driving

 

nah..no need for extremes..just a bad beating should do..

 

im glad u took it to the track

 

lol

 

dang them times seem too slow buddy

 

what was your MPH in the 1/4?
I would have it dyno'd and tuned fo sure, should at least be running low 14's.

 

u should definitely b runnin mid to low 14s AT LEAST. your trap speed sux, u might have worn cams, timing issues, do a leakdown test to start the elimination process. 60s could also use some work.

 

Either lost compression, or you don't know how to drive, that's all i can guess.

BTW: if you hear the engine making a strange sound before you shift, it's the rev-limiter, stay away from that.

 

my friend with 92 cx w/gsr has a skunk2 manifold, dc header and a half *** exhast ran a 13.6 on slicks.

 

slicks wish i had them, so i could be in the 13's

 

Ive done a compression test, and the compression is fine, it came out 230-230-210-225 and I'm afraid I dont know what a leakdown test is? I have heard about them, but what is involved, can I just goto autozone and buy a tester?

Also, what should my whp be at? Only mods are cai, cat, and exhaust. My driving seemed fine, because on all those runs I shifted at 7900 and never hit the rev limiter, and never missed a shift. BTW my tires were around 12psi or so in the drags.

 

I have a gsr tranny for the person that asked, and I am going to have to get in on the dyno to see whats wrong, but I think I will get a Hondata first, then I'll be able to tune it all when I mod it further.

I am waiting on a tool in the mail so I can adjust the valves, replace the cam seal, and distributor o ring, those wouldnt have a big impact on times would it?

BTW the time was run at palmdale, but ever since then I couldnt break 14 anymore at famoso in bakersfiled!!! It seems to get worse and worse!

 

One. STOP RUNNING IT!!!!

If the times are getting worse and worse there is something wrong and you are only doing more damage.

Tune it up first then get the damn ECU and Dyno. How many miles??? Are you burning oil??

If your times are getting worse then you need to back off and look at what is wrong.

 

Listen to Spade. Something is not right. Get a baseline dyno. Your hybrid should be faster unless you have terrible launches.

 

Are you new to racing at the track?
How much experience at the track do you have, are you used to your car yet with the swap yet?

 

most likely...i ran a 15.14 in a 97 ex...full interior with a b16a2 swap and full exhaust...
