Default Hello from Houston

After years of just reading HT ITR forum I have finally decided post up and say hello. Up until now, I really didn't see the point in posting - every question I had was answered with the search button. At 36, I'm probably too old for a little white Honda with a big wing - but it's just too dam fun.

Like many, I had an itr and went away from it for a while. Nothing really compares - I recently picked up my second one, I'm sure many of you are very familiar with it.

Bodykit and turbo go on this week LOL joking, after I get it tuned and make a few changes it will be a weekend track day car. I'm really looking forward to it; I had my previous r out for several track days and always had an amazing time.

Anyway, I wanted to thank Gil for everything and say hello to everyone here. Gil was super nice to deal with.

ps - thanks for the hook up MIGS

- edited for late night grammar...

Thanks everyone, for the warm welcome.

Expo sounds like a really good time (I almost went to Expo 3), hopefully I can have the car ready in time.

Step 1 - new cams and tuning.

Just back from the Dyno...

I'm really happy with the results - 1.8L on stock ITR cams, tuned with Crome.

Thanks to Huy Tran at Inline Racing.

holy ****! thats amazing for a stock 1.8l B18C5. The torque is incredible. Most B18C5 setups put around 130 ft/lbs on a Dynojet
Congrats George
