Im happy with it so far. Its fun to drive. I put on 550km/week on this through out the summer months.
i pulled 126mph at 443 hp. Does that seem to be right ? some cars here are on race fuel running 500 pulling only couple mph more then me.
My tranny has a whine to it :ohnoes: I think the end is near, which why i didnt run slicks. :nervous:
Diptech really does do awesome work. As for hitting 10's, you definitely can with slicks, but seat time and track condition are definitely important factors. Pulling 126mph with 443whp is awesome, mainly because your car is crazy light. Probably ~2,000 lbs right? And Tranny whine is scary, mine is doing that in 1st gear from running radials at the track :nervous: If your tranny goes, what is your next step?Quote:

Our tracks are nothing like tracks you guys have. I was reading guys running 11s on street tires with 125-128mph. Thats just crazy!
My next step is slicks, wheels and skinnies. Theres a complete set up not to far away for 900 canadian.
I'll add some race fuel or meth, see what 20 psi will net with more aggressive timing. So far its set at 13 timing at 17 psi.
As for tranny, im hoping nothing happens. If it does, ill buy another base/ep3 tranny and lsd(unless i get some crazy money tree to grow, then id get dog box synchro 3-4 gear)
:)
It's fun little car now
Fun little car is definitely one way to put it. Lol. I was thinking of using OEM 1-2, PPG or albins 3-4, TSX 5-6. Not sure of ratios, but FWIK, they should work together. As for the mph thing, yea your MPH shot up from spinning, but I think it would be that way either way. Can't wait to see what slicks and skinnies will bring!
sam here. PPG would definetly ease your mind about breaking the tranny.What are you running for LSD?
Ya i think the same. When i got some grip my half track hit 93mph and end track 125.8 (which is my highest mph)
When i complete spun 3rd i trapped 89 mph and 124.5. Time will tell. My trap speed will also vary with the size of slicks
Maybe shes making more then 443whp :P
Thats what I was thinking, to keep cost down. OEM 1-2, PPG or albin 3-4, and TSX 5-6. Maybe OEM 5 and TSX 6. Less than 3k for the whole set though, soo worth it though. Cheaper than the 1-4 albins setup being 4600 :sigh: I'm running OEM LSD in the Si, not sure what spoolin is running though. And It might be making 443whp, but you're pretty light. Then again, prob is making more than that.Quote:

Absolutely love this car :drool: If I could do up an integra, this car would be my role model. Very nicely done, however I wouldn't leave it unlocked in my driveway :rotfl:
