Wrong. That's the velasco racing civic. From what I understand it has a bone stock B18c1, with no internal mods whatsoever, stock compression, stock cams, etc.. only i/e/h. And it run's in the 12's..

well if u wanted to be really really .....really ghetto about it...... there's always drier tube.... u know that white stuff that plugs into the back of your drier..... other wise if you're not an extreme tightass.... get a pipe bent from an exhaust shop and get it CHROMED!! or paint it.... but chrome would be different
