hey boys remember this video?? we'll, lets just say the power of a GOOD tune is crucial.... before i was makin 505/561 on the stock engine with rediculus timing at 8psi, and well, the graph looked like this:
yuck... as u can see, my power dropped off right after ~4700rpms, on top of that, i had detenation top end. i didnt even have a top end
as a result, i had a not so fast car, and a blown engine.
since, i have rebuilt the engine, or at least the bottom end. im 19 so i can only do this in incriments. now i have stock displacement at 8.65CR, a shitty cam which my builder bought behind my back 220/218 114 .564, and stock heads. i took it to CARTEK which i've got to say was the best decision ive made yet for the car. Julio is a genius. im keeping the car extremely conservative right now. With 8.65CR, im running only 8psi, and have only 440whp, compared to my previous 505whp. let me tell u, the car is 100x better than before. as all u no, hp numbers mean absolutely ****. Over the winter im getting meth and adding boost, and soon after will get some AFR's and the right cam to make some serious power.
Unfortunatly i cant get a race with the civic cuz he's hiding ever since my buddy Firehawk853 came out with his 630whp procharged ls1.
but, here's a little taste of what a great tune can do:

i think u'll hear which car's mine.lol ....the car that pulls me is the 630whp firehawk..that car is badass. 630>440
heres me vs a supercharged lt1. his car goes pretty good. he claims his tranny shifted slow, which i dont doubt, but no traction for half the race < slow tranny shft. u can hear my tires in 1st and 2nd, how im off and on and get all squirly. its the 2nd race. enjoy
