who drives their turbo cars 8-15k miles a year and races with it as well, what are your times and what kind of car/motor do you have, just seein what the average is around here.

 

I have this..



[Modified by MauiCivic, 7:07 PM 8/15/2002]

 

I put around 35000 miles a year on my car and its my only car.

 

502hp at the wheels with 14psi what the hell are you running.....
Oh and to Memphis (what motor is that with) and have you had any problems. what setup do you have?

 

just over 15k miles this past year. I race prolly 3-4 times per day and get on it on my twice that. so far ive only got around 12k boosted miles, 88k total on the car. basically its a stock LS integra w/ a revhard kit, exhaust, suspension and tires.

 

making 300+ and driving about 25k a year

 

'98 Civic w/ bone stock D16, 109k miles (38k since boost), 217whp @ 10psi, still going strong even with weekley racing.

 

502hp with 550cc injectors and 92 pump gas? Am I missing something here?

 

And low *** trap speed for 502@the wheels, Jason

 

yeah, we're all missing something..........i think its the punchline.

502 on pump gas????? on 550 injectors???? 123 mph traps????

yeah, right.

 

With full exhaust at that? and even if thats true 11.6? I wouldnt be proud of that.

 

with 502 to the wheels in a civic?? i think i'd **** myself if i only ran a 11.6 i definetely wouldn't post it.

 

I daily drive my civic Si hatch back--my only car.
Stock LS motor with the exception of my own port job on the exhaust side. Motor has about 110K on it Im guessing, maybe more.
I drive about 12-13000 miles a year, but have only been turbo about 4.5K.

Time is in my sig. This is in complete street trim..ie. Full interior w/exception of spare and jack---actually i had my toolbox on the back floor, so nevermind. Pump gas with a little shot of 105 just to keep away any sign of detonation. Street tires.

 

thats what I was saying... I WOULDN'T be proud of that.

 

so im gettin blasted for running my street car at 11.6

i bet the rest of you are running on slicks huh... when i say street i mean street.
so Jinx is saying he runs on 92 octane with full exhaust on street tires and could match it? wow your awsome huh.

wow you guys are a friendly bunch of jerk-offs

if you ran 11.6 on street tires thats great. but as far as i'm concerned, you could not make over 500 hsp to the wheels on 92 octane @ 14 lbs of boost and with 550 injectors(unless you have more than 4 injectors). not for more than a few dyno pulls anyway. we all would love to be able to do that.

prove me wrong please.

I am hoping he replies to my IM's because I would like to know who he is etc. since I have never seen his car at the track. In another post he mentioned he broke some 900cc injectors while racing on the mainland. I am guessing that the 500cc is the injectors he uses on the street with the boost turned down or the 900cc ones are secondary ones. Not bashing on him or anything either. I am quite interested in who he may be like the rest of you. I know HT is a tough crowd and I understand that.

 

I saw his car run in ennis this past weekend. it looked fast. but i as well am interested in how u can make 502whp @ 14psi.

 

thats all i'm asking. he stated 502 hsp on 550 injectors @ 14 lbs of boost. if he runs 550's on the street @ 14 lbs and makes X amount of power and then switches to 900cc injectors and then makes the 500 hsp........just trying to clear this up.

mauicivic ........i never said anything about my car, anywhere in this post.

Actually i wasnt able to run in Ennis. I was trying the 900cc out for the first time and had something go wrong..

If your dissbelife is with my horsepower and cc size with 92 octane and full exhaust, then thats ok... but it is true. no ones seen me before because im from Maui, Hawaii and so is the car. a friend of mine from fullerton built and tuned it for me if none belives me you can go by the shop and see it. look at http://WWW.factorxmotorsports.com for directions because i have no clue how to get there. i brought it back here to get the rest of my power... full boost with the 900cc. I know that after the 14 lbs of boost i will not be able to run pump gas... but i have run my car for almost a year as my Daily driver and drag race it once a week. I have not tried it yet with slicks but might do it next weekend in vegas if i get full boost.

I came to this forum to talk to other people that love racing Hondas. I mean no dissrespect to any one, but to just have fun.

 

since you obviously know something about honda's, you have to understand that making 500 hsp on pump gas, on 550's, on 14 lbs of boost, is borderline unbelievable. what is your injector duty cycle???like 150%??? whats your fuel pressure at idle??? 70 psi??? have you had this car on a dyno??? what was your air fuel reading???? what turbo are you running?? what compression??? i'm not trying to be a dick.......but it just doesn't add up.

 

let me see if i can awnser some for ya.
duty cycle is at 95%
at idle my fuel was at 40psi
yes it was on a dyno, thats how i know the HP
air / fuel i have no idea
Turbo is a T4 Fastrax turbo (same in JoJo calos, and lisa Kubos car)

I was not the builder of the motor so alot of the inside stuff i have no idea about. but i do know what i put in the tank, what cc's, and what my dyno was..
Some one told me to go to Irwindale raceway and as soon as my car is done with the stuff i will let everyone here know.

also, how long am i under a trial user?
I am not aloud to IM as a trial user

You are a trial user for 14 days and can remain here as long as you stay above 95%. Has your car been recently built up? Where are you dragging every week? Here on Maui or the mainland? Maui has drags only once a month and thats for Friday and Saturday only. Please answer my questions that I IM'd you. I am extremely curious. Lates.

 

oh well there was a turbo street hatch running mid 11's and i read one of ur other posts about ur trip to ennis so I just made the assumption that was u. now i know it wasnt.

 

Damn thats right! I totally forgot about that too. You don't have IM capabilities until you are a regular member. Email me at trevor@trendsettersracing.com if you wish. Thanks man.
Edit: Also you can post no more than 5 times in a 24 hour period.
