Default need advice on my ET with my new setup

I just recently got my car out of the shop couple of weeks ago, went to sac raceway the first opening day... here is my setup

Stock 00 Civic Si
-Quaife LSD
-Exedy Organic Clutch
-Exedy 9lb Flywheel
-Greddy Evo Catback
-full interior, nothing in the trunk (well besides my amp for my sub)
-intake, well ill try to have pix up, but the U pipe, i cut it in half so at the bottom by the tires its just open there, but still a filter in the box
- Kumho 712's at 30psi on stock Si rims

60ft - 2.3
ET - 15.2xx @ 89mph


is it possible to squeeze a better time in there, do i suck at driving?? whats the deal HT members, i need advice


my best time before this was a 15.4 with just the greddy evo, ineterior setup the same

The mph is unusually low. At 88-89mph, it would take some god like driving to get into the 14's in a fwd in my opinion but it's definitely not impossible. Good luck!

a little update for you guys

i was going thru my old time slips from before i had LSD, and my best 60ft then was a 2.3 as well, so i think my 60ft HAS to be better than a 2.3 by now. .


any ideas?
