Can't see the vid, but I'm assuming you won. Holy hell that crx is light. What motor, turbo, ect is it?

I see it's in Andy Thomason's photobucket. I know of that guy from S2ki.com. I used to have a nitrous'd S2000. You're pretty close to me. How do you like that MS4 cam? I want to go with that cam, AFR 205 heads (will probably have to flycut) and a 150 TNT shot.

By the way, good kill! I thought he may get you with that power to weight ratio but NA>turbo.

From Greenville, SC with a MS4 cammed TA? Have I seen you at Hobby Lobby on Sunday nights before? Last year around this time most of our car club would head out there on Sunday nights and drum up some races on I-385.

Azn, b16 motor, b16 tranny, and sc-34 turbo.

Kilgo, yes Andy is a good friend of mine, he took the vid in his s2k actually, lol.
Love the cam, just make sure you get a gear for it because it sucks with 3.42 from a dead stop.

WS6, I didn't have a cam in the car last year but yes I did go out there every once in awhile.

BTW; this was round one a couple months ago.

He had a different tranny in it then.

ya but like it has been posted before it is all in the setup. I bet that car makes nothing for torque and by the time it starts to make good he has to shift again puting him out of his powerband. I mean dont get me wrong i bet that car moves really well but the setup is lacking a real usable powerband and torque.

Please don't. Find yourself a nice mid sized cam and do more research. Nice heads don't need a donkey dick cam that was designed for stock heads.


OP, great kill

It's all in the setup.
I know a few guys that have made huge power from those cams with other supporting mods.

I actually like the cam.
The TA is my daily driver.
The only thing I recommend is getting a stronger valvetrain, tranny, and clutch.
LOL. Ask me how I know!

Stout setup for a b16. Forged pistons? I bet that thing moves well though. I'm not sure about that turbo, but from what you have been saying, seems like a pretty good set up.

Well, if you ever want to venture to Spartanburg some weekend, you can hang out with UFB. There are plenty of cars to pick from if you want to run one. We have several mustangs that come out with us also
