well update i wen to carlsbad raceway. Man that track is shitty the whole track either side is crappy i will not go back for awhile. but anyway here are the times.

old best run 1/8th mile:

2.284 60ft
9.438 1/8th
75.12 trap speed.

set-up:

B16a1, S1 tranny, type R intake manifold, AEM short ram intake, DC 4-1 header, 2 1/4 custom exhaust, carsound cat, unorthodox crank pulley.

running Nitto 555R's 205/55/14's at 19psi

New best time run in 1/4 mile:

.995 RT
2.365 60ft
9.319 1/8th mile
78.45 1/8th mph
14.325 1/4 mile
97.48 1/4 mph

Setup same as before except:

Injen short ram. everything changed over to obd1. stock 2nd gen b16 intake manifold. and chipped p28 tuned by <HardLowrdRanger>.

so as you can see by the times i got worse traction at carlsbad and i had the stock intake manifold on . and i beat my old 1/8th mile trap speed by almost 3 mph. i think if i would have stayed a lil longer i would have gotten a 14.2xx because my runs went like this.

14.349
14.331
14.325

so i was slowly moving my way down and my 60 ft's were getting lower so if i could have pulled the 60ft i got at the Q i for sure would have gotten the 14.2. but i was not hooking as good with the new program because the powerband is way stronger. but i think if i got the intake manifold back on and got my 60's down i think i could pull closer to a 14.1 or even a 14.0. which would be nice.

any questions?

ttt

 

I'm having trouble's getting my 60ft down. I have a itr swap in my 98 hx coupe and I run 2.1 60 foots. If you get the bfg's let me know how they work for because I have the nitto's and I still overpowering them. I have also thought about some traction bars.

 

hey mike, how are you?

not too bad of a time...could be doing a little better. did you run at qualcomm or barona?

 

You could hit 9.2's i fyou could hook up.

BTW i ran 9.7 with a sohc with just a header

 

Yea you should be able to do better, im pulling 9.5's with a ls swap in my 93 cx with only intake and exhaust

 

I pulled 9.4's on street tires now pulling 8.6's on slicks and juice. Just practice and it will all come together for you. keep up the good work. forgot I drive 90 Crx DX with JDM B16 swap also.

 

a while back, had a EF si hatch- b16 with intake and header, got it down to 9.2 76 mph 2.2 60ft...did you run it at the stadium? evrone says they cant hook up there...

 

for a long time i was running 9.5 and 9.6 with street tires. put on the cheater slicks and ran a 9.2, put on the slicks and running 8.6, with a few extra mods. all at qualcomm....cutting 1.9 60 foot, i think this last time, with a new tranny and a few more mods, finally cut a 1.8 60 foot. i've had great hook up at the q.

what up girl heard you up in LA now...........anyways yea this was at the Q.......trying to get some BFG's by tomorrow so we will see how it goes if not i will borrow my boy's 16" nitto's on rotas

i will keep yall posted

 

qualcomm 60fts suck, I give you made props for pulling a 1.8. My best is a 2.1 w/ slicks, thats about the best Ive seen running other peeps with slicks. I ran a 9.8 @68mphs with a 2.1. last time I was there some homey was running high 10s with a b16 crx, so your not too bad. With that trap you have potential to run a hell of alot better though

 

yeah, moved back home to be closer to the family......and the racing! just got a job at the la auto show...and i love it!

lots of racing this month, will you be attending pomona or california speedway?

good luck racing tomorrow. may want to try the nittos, that what i ran when i moved into the lower 9's. try racing on the far left track instead of the right. might have better traction...don't forget to lower your tire pressure. start at 15 and work down to 12...good luck!

 

yea i want to go up there once i get a lil more stuff done to my crx. but till then its the Q and carlsbad once i can get my 60's down.........i think i just need seat time and i will be fine.........

 

how come no one mentions the barona dragstrip..sticky!! ive cut 1.7 60fts with 14x8x20's..i like it there better than the Q..........

 

the point is that the Q is the closest thing to street racing because your launching on gravel not a concrete launch pad.......if i wanted sick times then yea i would go to another track like barona but i am trying to say yea i ran a XX.XX at the Q and thats just about the same as i would run if i was on the street..........you know how us street racers are

wasn't counting out barona...i just figured mike was racing at the q. don't get me wrong, i'm a supporter of both tracks....in fact i used to work for both tracks simultaneously....still working for barona.

i know what you mean, same reason why i like the q better. something about it being so sanctioned and "professional" is just... boring to me. its also cool how the spectators can go and talk to the racers too.

yea right, its the drive up there that no one likes!

 

yea the drive up there doesn't help i am right next to the 56 but i still dont like that trip .......well acutally i don't like the sound of my S1 tranny at 65 mph in 5th at like 4000rpm scares me.

 

lol, for almost a year i had to drive 60 miles forward and back to work s1 tranny and NO RADIO!!!!!how fuked up is that......

 

yeah, the drive up is pretty scary....middle of nowhere

**** whats the point if you did have a radio that ..........my **** is gutted with a loud *** ricey exhaust..........(was there when i got the car) ..........and i don't think i could hear the radio anyway

 

when my b16 was stock..it ran a 9.1 @74 mph and 1.83- 60ft..had 2 1/4 exhaust, dc 4-1 header, and 18x8x14 slicks.....i launched at 5200 rpm..hooked everytime...i also have a jdm s1 tranny...

 

hmm so i am pulling higher traps than you were...........but your times were way better than mine because of those slicks. comparing 60's you had me off the line by about.......... .6 seconds..........and you beat me by .6 seonds in the ET........but why is my MPH higher is that because of traction problems or is my car just faster?

 

Most of the time if you have higher traps but slower E.T's it means traction but that's just from my experience.
