this is Carp, Im posting under my bnrothers name, cant sign out.
this was my second time at the track with it, but the first time I had some crazy problems with the car running too lean on a 12:1 FMU setup. was only able to run 14.1
so I ditched the FMU and put some DSM 450's and did the vafc hack.
I put the injectors in on friday night and tunned it on the drive to Englishtown sat. morning
first run 13.9 not that much better but the car felt fast. I was only running 6.5 psi no boost controler. after that run I decided to run my boost controller at 7 psi, well I got a 13.8 but now my problem was way too much wheel spin. I was spinning at the top of 1st, and 2nd. so I went over to the BFG tent and borrowed a set of radials I was then able to run a 13.4 at 105 still with a shitty 2.2 60 foot and still spinning, but up untill I got the radials I was pulling 2.4 60's
I only got 2 runs with the radials, then came eliminations if I had more time to practice I know I could have ran a very low 13.
but I am pretty happy with the results still room to tune the VAFC too!here is a pic of my crx from evotuners.com

also my Twin brother DOHCarp ran a 12.7 at 113 on sat. he also took 1st in B2 brackets

All u need is some more practice on that launch and you will be definetely in the low 13's. Just concentrate on your burnout and the launch. You can easily pull a 2.0 next time around. Good times nothing to be disapointed about .

 

forgot to mention my E-brake wasnt working so no burnout

 

I had the same problem in my crx, i ran a 14.3@103.95 with a 2.4 60', and it was on 185-60-14 tires, i just bought a set of nitto 555r drag radials, cant wait to try them out this weekend, hoping to be mid 13's with my turbo d-series running only 6psi, btw very nice crx....like the color, and the afc w/ 450's is way batter than those dang fmu's and check valves...thats just a dumb way to fuel a turbo car...afc hack works great

I didnt plan on running radials! I borrowed them from the BFG TENT, so I had no need for a working e-brake.
also it was working, but not well enough to hold back my car.
