Good kill, OP.
That being said... That's not a "built" Honda... That's a bolt-on turbo kit and a tune, and probably headstuds... Hell, He's even still running on the GSR IM... And tire wouldn't help him. I'd bet a paycheck that he's still got the stock open diff.
Even after clearing that up... You still put a hurtin' on him, which is damned impressive in my book. Even a bolt-on kit on a b18c1 should be putting down at least 300-350whp, unless he's running wastegate only. Either way, your SS is haulin'
Tell your boy to do a little research on the Blox 1.5 lsd's. They're budget-friendly, and hold up great if you rip them apart and clean them up. A good LSD coupled with an s300 with boost by gear and a 5-6lb wastegate spring for leaving on, and he should be able to climb out of the hole a little better... Then y'all could have a little more even of a grudge match
*SIGH* Typing all that makes me miss my old Honda's a little

Hey, Honda's were all I could afford when I was in HS, and you can frankenstein the **** out of them and wind up with something relatively quick for cheap.
TBH, I'd still be dicking with Honda's if it weren't for a few things.
1) ALL THE ************* STEALING **** AND BREAKING INTO CARS
2) The immaturity in the scene in general
3) FWD's are a pain in the *** if you want to run consistent times
4) the HP/Dollar ratio is pretty damned high once you get past about 350-400whp
5) A fast Honda is still a ******* Honda. A fast Camaro is a rolling ***** magnet. (Or, as my ex called it, a vibrator on wheels.)

call BS on his ***... He's probably got Ebay Nippon hypereutectic pistons and aftermarket rod bolts. As far as the diff goes, well... Either he driving on spares AND is the worst driver to ever exist, or he's still got an open diff. I had a stripper CRX with a boosted b20 frank motor putting down 519 on E85, and it hooked up better than that on shitty Fuzion HRi's. The dyno slip is BS too. Unless the dyno operator was a complete retard and didn't strap it right.
Call him out on his crap in front of all the Honda guys... He'll catch **** for six months about how the Chevy guy driving a Cobalt knows more about how to set up a honda than he does

Built motor in that case, but I see nothing regarding what diff he is running. Also what trans is it? Stock head, meh, and if that head is stock, probably stock IM as well. I'm calling maybe 350 hp. With those forged parts he should be running more boost....if he was smart, he would go e85 and 21 or more lbs. After he works out his traction issues.

HMMM... That would be what I'd call a 'lego build', assuming he's not just lying his *** off. Something is DEF. not right there. Except for the top end setup, that SOUNDS like a decent build. Even IF he's telling the truth, he's retarded. That manifold is a quality piece, and that bottom end he has spec'd out is for the big boys. That setup should be pushing 450-500whp easy, even without a properly spec'd top end. Either he's lying, has a retarded tuner, or has a turbo that's way out of its efficiency range.

Old numbers on 93. Spun a rod bearing when it over boosted.
On E85 now shooting for 500whp. Pretty close to maxing the fuel system.

This is sad LMAO. A properly built NA (all motor) honda would destroy a 1320 time of 13.1 lol. Race a real honda. NA or boosted. You are pretty much way too slow do deal with the big dog hondas lol. 13.1???? that is very very slow for a boosted anything Lmao....

The Integra from the vid and me are going to have a rematch soon - he's going to bolt on his 15" slicks and I'm going to bolt on my 225/45/17 drag radials and we're gonna go at it again.
