yikes i hate my auto...im on my second tranny(free from dealership)...im really trying to improve my 1/4 mile time....this past weekend i was at the deer park race way in long island and ran my best time 14.78 at 95.6mph.....my question to you guys is with my mods and a standard tranny could i come alot closer to 14.2ish?? i hate howi cant launch with my auto


mods
K/N typhoon cold air intake with built in ice box
Greddy Evo 2 catback exhaust
Custom made test pipe
DC 4-2-1 header(worst mod ever)
MSD igntion with plugs and 8.5mm wires
AEM TRU POWER pulleys
Unorthodox racing Crank pulley
AC Removal
noback seats...trunk stripped....no jack and spare....carbon fiber hood...light weight battery relocated to trunk

 

Troy huh? Why go to Deer Park? Have you been to Lebanon Valley? It's not to far from us. Anyway I would say that your probaly at your cars highest potential at 14.7. Sorry man, time to convert to manual.

 

ahh upsetting :-(....yes ive been to valley...the reason i went to deer park is cuse my brother lives on long island....

so basically if i do any more mods to this thing i wont decrease my time....i unfortunatlly ordered a skunk 2 im and tb.....would that help lower my time ?

 

Why get a light weigh battery, then relocate it to the Trunk ?? Is there a purpose or just a bling factor ? Perhaps you had to make room for your Ice Box ??

Your times are expected to what you have done so far to the car. Good driver + h22 engine w/ manual tranny = Low 14s as Base.

 

With just those mods your wasting your money on a IM and TB. Sure it might help a little but all your really doing in the process of making your car faster is only hurting your auto-tranny even more. Instead you need to save your money from all those lil things your getting and convert to manual.

 

96mph is damn good for an auto with mild bolt ons. I know plenty of standard 5th gens that cant run a 14.7.

post a timeslip. What was your 60 ft?

 

ahh i dont have the time slip man...im not lying tho that was my time

 

94 vtecluder...do u ever go to glemont or troy area....i wanna check out your lude

 

that is good for auto, my auto h22 is only running 15.6 at 91mph. i dont have cf hood (right now i have fiberglass hood), crank pulley, i have cat converter though and i always ran in full interior. post your timeslip so i can compare it with mine. is yours a 5thgen?


3"intake with kn&n
custom 2.5" pipings and exhaust
dc headers
magnaflow cat converter
msd 8.5 wires and external coil
grounding kit

right now i got fiberglass hood i got on a pick a part for 26bucks! thats a steal!
and a apexi n1 exhaust ( friend gave it.)
saving for my tranny swap.

 

i dont have my timeslip buddy...yes its a 5th gen....how about u

 

Check you pm. I used to go to Kohls on central back in the day....

p.s. afaik there is no such thing as a auto vtec 4th, at least usdm but correct me if i'm wrong

 

mine is a 4thgen, and it was a swapped auto h22a1. 14.7 is prettyfast for a auto h22, i wish my car runs like that..

 

i also used to go to kohls...i guess people are going to wendys on central now....so what mods do u have in ur veihcle

 

you will get to 14.7 some day man....also when i raced at deer park i had my front seat out...i was running with royal purple antifreeze and oil which claim whp gains on our cars....also my buddy and i designed thermal ice wraps which wrap my intake and manifold which might have helped with the time...but all and all i was pleased just really want a stick now
