well yesterday i went to the track up in fontana and it was my first trip to the track ever and my fastest time was 15.2 i have a DC race header AEM cold air and i was running my friends dented 5Zigen fireball exhaust (which in my opinion is the worst exhaust in the world) i also was running on my Nitto Neo Gen tires which i think stuck OK for the most part and i was also running on a slipping clutch and to top it all off it was about 105 degrees outside what times do you guys run with an intake header and exhaust set up?

 

most type's run around 15.2-14/8 stock with a good driver. what was your 60' time? dont get discouraged there are alot of factors with one of which you mentioned...weather

 

my 60' sucked akk day and so did everyone elses that i talked to at the track mine were usally 2.5 and my best was a 2.4 and thats when i hit the 15.2 i think it might be the track because i talked to this guy who has an 06 type s that runs there alot and he said he couldent break into the 14s with just bolt-ons and he got some toda cams and now he runs low 14s

 

Sounds like it is time for a different track. those are horrible times...

 

so did anyone else run at fontana on the weekend

 

saw a guy in an 02-04 w/ Hondata #4, CAI, open exhaust, and slicks on the front do a 12.7 1/4

 

The 60' is the key. Keep the revs high, feather the clutch, and keep the front wheels just on the verge of breaking traction. Lower the front tire pressures to let them get more of a grip, too. You should be able to get 60' times in the 2.2 range on street tires.

 

Theres no way in hell an RSX can hit 12.7 with out major mods. An integra needs about 300whp to get in the 12s and its lighter then the RSX, Not saying your lying, but whoever told you about the mods on the car was lying. A rsx with your mods should hit low 14s

 

so when is the next day to go run

 

yeah i just need to tune my car and work on the launch i think i will dramatic changes if the weathers nice too
