Newbie to the site....pics of my car whats up everyone. I dont have a f-body or even a v-8, but I figured everyone can learn something from everybody else. I do have a 2.0L 4 cylinder though. Its a 2002 RSX-S with some work. Heres the list of mods:

Kenwood excelon KDC-x659-Kenwood Sirius Satallite Reciever-Polk Componets EX3560-MB Quart RKC116-10" JL W7-500.1 JL amp to W7-Monster Cable Battery Terminals
Last trip to the dyno I made 386whp @ 16psi and 281wtq. That was with an extremly rich mixture from 4200-6200 (under 10:1 a/f). I'll be going back soon with some larger injectors (750cc) and an intank fuel pump upgrade, because my injectors were maxed out from 7k-8100rpm. I might throw some turbo cams on too...my goal is 450whp
.
Last trip to the 1/8 mile track (not exactly a rice burners place to shine), I went 8.40's @ 93.2 mph with a shitty 2.17 60'. I was on drag radials, but my best 60' ever was only a 2.12
. With traction and good driving, I think that I could hit 7.99...thats what Im shooting for anyway.
I know that I have A LOT to learn about when it comes to f-bodies, v-8's, etc. Heres a few older pictures of my car..
EDIT: Forgot to add that the car only weighs 2710lbs with me in it.

Whats up, man? Hey, ya' know...import/ tuner isn't my thing...BUT...speed is!!! So...welcome aboard, hope you feel at home here & find any info you need. By the way...car looks nice and sounds like you did it right! Most of the tuners here only have the typical stickers & wing...nice to see someone who is interested enough to do it right.

That thing is quite the little ripper. Looks nice, too! Congrats on doing it right. I'm sick of seeing imports that think there badass because they have a wing and rims, but you did a good job! Welcome and enjoy the site.
