Good kill, was that a single cam motor in the civic?

Not sure on that man, we will find out and report back.. He said he is making around 320Whp right now. As you guys probably head, 4 1/2 - 5 lengths or so... We were still pulling pretty good too.

M6
AFR 205
224 cam
FAST 90/90
Kooks LTs/ORY/magnaflow
stock gears
water pump/underdrive/etc
No tune for the heads yet should pick up a good amount after that also.


O and Casey, he has a stock head.

my bad my bad you are correct he has just the one consider it fixed

and i guess that just means he will get out cheaper with the head swap then i did then lol

I will bet he will have a lot more in it... Takes a lot to work on those little things for some reason, expensive to mod..?

Arctic

haha, nice, i raced one, same color and everything minus the carbon fiber hood, i didnt beat him as bad, little things are quick

I don't know why he didn't brake-boost, you wouldn't have gotten as big a jump then. Still would have won of course . Good kill.

Is this the Arctic with the Blue vette and Busa??

He did on the first run but it wasn't a clean run (TA hit limiter on 1-2 shift and then missed 3rd (had flip flops on)) so we did it again but bare foot! We pulled almost the same but on each fucked up shift the civic would pull back about 1/2-3/4 of a car.

Gotcha. Quick rides, all around.

fo sho...........i was definitely surprised i wasnt expecting that much fight outta the civic

LightningTeg

At 320whp it should be alot closer. Hondas can be "fast", but the idiots who mod them can never do it the right way.

Arctic

nope, i just have a stock t/a, well mostly stock...

is running aftermarket heads on a cam/fast motor without a tune a smart thing to do? i wouldnt think it would be.

You should have done one from a dig. Would have been murder then.

Good kill, man! Any dyno numbers for the TA, either before or after the heads?

yfz

And alot of idiots cannot drive them, but i guess with any car with a decent amount of power the average person cannot drive...

no dyno numbers from after the head swap but it did 392/376 before

Don't know why you say that? The OP car is right around the 450Rwhp mark. I think with 125+whp advantage and the fact that there is zero lag with the NA car, it was right where it should be.
Ahh... Not optimal but it should hurt too much. The only thing changed was the heads. It could definitely use a touch up but I doubt anything bad is going to happen.

The civic owner knew the outcome of that... Would have been a waste of time.

FWIW the civic owner isn't a ricer he actually gives credit where it is due and doesn't talk his car up like its something its not.. He was happy he hung that well from that mph roll.

Pretty sure I am going to run the civic in the next week or so on motor.. 30-120mph

I'm going to guess it is going to be about 6-8 lengths, anything can happen though. Have not decided if I'm running slicks or street tires.

Not anywhere close to what it should have been ... maybe a couple cars.. that civic is hit, or he can't drive or spun and needs tires..
