the weather was really bad, it just rained...the temp was about 85 ish and very very very humid. anyways...stock my car ran 14.9@95 with a 2.3 60 ft in january and with a dc sport dac and jdm header i ran about the same time....wtf? can anyone look at my slip and tell me what my problem could be? this is my quickest run of the night.

r/t.......5.23
60`.....2.294
330.....6.397
1/8......9.723
mph.....74.82
1/4......14.939
mph.....96.66

wat da??? maybe the weather contributed to such slow times???

 

oh yah..i forgot to mention..with me in the car it weighed in at 2630 lbs.
the car by itself...stock full interior blah blah blah...2500 lbs!

 

Thats a high trap speed, you sure thats right. I mean i ran a 13.2 a while ago at 101mph, and you ran 14.9x at 96. Seems a little off. Then of course your 60ft sucks.

 

hmm...you can run quicker then 2.2 on stock suspension and street tires? (no nitto 555's or tires lyke that(slicks).

 

The best I've seen on street tires and stock suspension is a 2.1 60 foot. Takes lots of practice man. Life is a lot easier when you have slicks or stickier tires.

 

Your R isnt bad. Your 60 foot time is however.
Practice.
Practice.
Practice.

Reaction time is poor too.
Go on the yellow and rev high and dump.

 

Most likely you are loosing power with that DC Sport DAC, as it draws hot air from the engine compartment. I had a buddy with a Prelude and he did about 6 runs alternating with the stock intake and the DAC and he always ran slower with the DAC. Put your stock intake back on, it draws cold air from outside the engine compartment.

 

does suspension really matter when you're running the 1/4?

 

Your trap speed is quick (97mph). You should be hitting mid, maybe even low 14's easy with some practice. How did you launch?

 

launch was almost perfect. slipped it right to vtec (when car grabbed) and bam....floored it. no wheelspin no bog.
