Very nice car/set up. Well done.
Not shue about going to the 22"s. What was your 60'?

 

Yea I would stick to the 23 and if you can get your hands on some 24.5 would be even better.

 

22 are allmotor tires.keep the 23" and why would u want to run and street tires in back.

 

i made about the same hp as you, and i ride 24.5s
what RPMS are you cross the finish line at??that might help you deceide what slicks to try...

 

yea my 60' was only 1.9 since im not really launching yet...the only reason i might have to use the 22" tires and no skinnies is cause i borrowed those since i dont have any money to spend on that stuff right now so i have to use what i have, you guys know how it is on a budget lol...i am crossing the line with the 23" slicks at like 7k rpm...i ran my 12.2 with my 295hp internal wg setup on the 22" slicks with a 2.2 60' so i guess all i can do is see what happens with those...i was told my 60' will be slower with 22" but my trap speed will be higher...ohh and im also running open diff. ls tranny lol...i really want to get this setup into the 10's with this setup so all ur input is appretiated

 

Good stuff from that turbo

 

Very nice job. I'm currently saving up for some 23" MH slicks...Was that your only run that day?

 

no that was my second run of the night, my first run started out with hardly any water in the burnout box and the tires pulled the car right through it so the tires werent warm and then the idiot next to me kept rolling back and forth on the line so i was on the 2step for about 15 seconds waiting for the light and i spun through 1st and shifted to 2nd and bogged and ran 13.4 at 120mph and overheated after the run lol...i think im going to turn the boost up in a couple weeks also

 

 

how much boost are you running?

 

you have a lot left. I had a greddy kit on my car with all the little piping and internal gate. at 17psi I did 309whp 242wtq on a dynojet on pump gas. I ran the car on drag radials with atleast 2700lbs total weight and still went 12.2@119mph. in your little car and your power launch hard and it will go way faster.

 

on dyno it was at 15psi and i think on streets im around 16psi

 

I think you still have more in it. Launch higher, and drop the tire pressure. What was your tire pressure on that run?

 

yea i know i have a lot left to go with this setup (hopefully 10's)...i was running 12psi in the tires lol...i should have started with 10psi but the damn track had 300+ cars running so i couldnt get enough runs in to make any changes...i just found out today one of my buddies has 24.5" slicks i can borrow and so i can see what i can do with those...i think i will launch at 6500 now that i have an extra axle in case i break ohh and i also was shifting at 8k instead of 8500k so it might help if i take it all the way to shift light lol

 

if your car has a mild steel roll cage 6pt you need a bit more power to get your 10s. ive seen crx with 350ish w/o a cage do 10.8-10.9@126-128mph..but risky since track officials will kick you out

 

I was about to say you better bring some axles if you didn't up grade!!! Good luck i can't wait to get to the track!!!

 

yea no cage yet...i was waiting to see how fast i run but now i should get one...at midnight mayhem here in vegas you can run 7,8,9,10 seconds or whatever and not have a roll cage and they dont kick you out...lol its not very safe but i think they let you get away with it because its not a sanctioned event and they dont even tech your car...the only thing is your car has to be registered and insured...on the axle issue i am trying to stay stock motor and stock axles and see if i can push 10's with it

 

I am on stock axles with almost 3000lbs with me in it and went 11.0. rev it and launch hard. on slicks you wont wheel hop so you should have no issue with axles

 

nice times gl next time going to the tracks

 

hey bro then you can hit 10sec w/o a cage with 350-360ish whp. we've hit 11.1@125mph with 350ish whp in a 93 EG hatchback w/o cage(heavier then your crx).. so you have a good chance to hit 10sec.. also we were on stock axles.. never broke yet...

you may need to rev to 8.5K rpms or a bit more.. only if you are still making power though.. good luck

 

dont run 22's. ur gonna spin them all the way down the track. stick with the 23's or even a 24

 

GOOD NUMBERS! HOW MUCH DID U SPEND IN THE EXTERNAL SET UP I STILL HAVE INTERNAL I WAS THINKING OF GOING EXTERNAL??

HOW MUCH DID U SPEND IN THE EXTERNAL SET UP I STILL HAVE INTERNAL I WAS THINKING OF GOING EXTERNAL??</TD></TR></TABLE>thanks...all you have to buy is a new manifold($500-700),gt28r v-band flange from atpturbo ($100), wastegate of your choice(38mm is big enough) 2-3" u-bends, 3" flexpipe, a t3 to t25 adapter from ebay for like $60 and re-do you intercooler piping and oil drain and you should be good to go...the turbo is a lot more laggy than that internal wastegate but the power up top is so much better and there is no boost spike at all...also if you do it make sure you hook up the top and bottom vacuum ports on the wastegate because it made the boost levels way more stable and get a bigger intercooler if yours isnt rated for over 350hp...good luck if you go for it, its worth it
