really? 1.7?? i dont know i sware i should be doing better but i think i got my 60'ft. down as much as it can go. i have a launch controller and have my launches down. i come out of the hole at 6000 right as vtec ingauges. i think my slicks are doing as much as they can. do you think i would get my 60ft. down more with an lsd and changing from coil overs to skunk2 drag springs? is there any tricks that help? like raising the back up more or somethin?

u keep tellin urself that cause when i went from 7k to 8k launches i dropped 1/10th off my 60' immediately.
also since u described what happens in ur post it sounds like ur clutch or tires are spinning then. if u fall out of VTEC with higher launches somethings not holding the power durin the shift to 2nd.

that JG manifold isnt made for NA apps. ive seen it used on high HP NA engines but it was designed primarily for FI.
as far as low end torque, who cares??? if u launch at 6k thats not exactly low end. my car sees nothin under 8k per run unless i misshift. just some food for thought.

I ran a 13.8 @ 104 with a 2.1 60ft but I found that I was shifting right on the 60ft mark so the 60ft could be worse but the et the same. I run a Civic Type R EP3 with JRSC 17 at the wheels. I feel that adjusting the camber on the front would help can anyone give me info on this?
