I've always used hairgel, seems to work better than hairspray.

If your using t-bolts and hairgel with a bead on the pipe,or rolled lip, and still blowing pipes off, then you have a serious problem. If I got to that point and was STILL blowing pipes off, I might consider if my bov was functioning properly, or if I had it set too stiff, or if my bov line wasnt going straight to the intake manifold.....
No.. I mean a single TD04LR on a 2.4L Ran 11.94 in a 3145LBS. FWD car... That's without the bottle/100shot. The car makes 375-380whp/425TQ in cool air and 430whp/appox 530TQ on the bottle ( its 100shot, but I loose a lot of via b/c I'm forced to turn the timing down and run a safer AFR ). The bottle torque numbers are calulated as it wouldn't get traction on street tires on the dyno until way after peak torque ( makes peak torque at 2900rpms ). It was a superflow mustang dyno...

Its one of 3 SRT4s to run 11's on the TD04 without nitrous. I did it on the stock clutch, full weight, stock chargepipes, stock TB, stock intake, stock air intake, stock head, stock cams, stock pullies, stock cam gears, stock suspention, still no returnline system.

Since then, I've added a clutch, cam gears, and a couple other things. I hope to run 11.69-11.79 on the motor and 11.4x on the bottle...

I need to update my sig etc. I don't own the stealth or the turbo civic anymore ( sold the civic Saturday ).

Lol thought it was on a stealth. Damn good numbers for that turbo...and on a mustang dyne too! Post up your dyno sheet I'd love to see the torque curve on that thing!

Dyno pics/sheets
http://new.photos.yahoo.com/maximum_...60762344741539

300whp/381 on pump gas ( this is the graph, you can see at the end the PCM pulls timing at about 5200rpms )
345/407TQ on race gas
409/505TQ ( pretty such this was calulated TQ wise) on the bottle

At these ^^^^ were on the stock Intercooler. I'd see 185degree IATs, and upto 216degrees on the dyno. The shop was so hot, we had to ICE the nitrous bottle down b/c it was at 1400psi when I opened it.

Anyway, with the new IC, on a 75degree night, I can see 70-72degrees with meth. injection.

This was on the motor/turbo, no nitrous. The turbo was done, I was missing about 5psi at redline. I had put a spark plug through the turbo a few weeks back, and the imbalenced turbo was finally giving up.

Haha, that's a freaking collection of race vids. Solid work, everyone should roll like that.

That's man. I used to street race the car weekly, and we pretty much had a crew that would come out, but are camera man dropped out, I had another baby, and I bought a street bike, so I took about 6 months off after it ran 11.94 off the bottle.

But now, I'm back, and I finally addressed the weak link ( the stock clutch ), and I'm getting the car whipped back into shape. I spray'd the car last night for the first time in about 5-6months. I likes it, hehe.

I like the supra video. Really shows how well a dyno queen fairs against something with a good powerband on the street. I just agreed to race the guy, I didn't know what was done to it. We stop for gas and someone tells me its got all this stuff ( cams T-76 turbo etc etc etc ) and I'm like " why in the hell am I racing a fully modded surpa from a roll ? ", but I did it anyway and one

I wish I had more videos of some of the cool cars I've lost to ( Sc300-T, couple of built Z06s N/A, and a 589whp cobra got me by a car ).

Neon sure is a fun car. If the motor blew up, tranny broke, and the turbo fell of tomorrow, I couldn't complain about the car. All those videos are on the stock clutch. I've replaced CV axle boots and that's it !!! My wife drives it to work everyday...

Only issues I have is traction on DRs ( biggest I can run is a 235/55/15 ), and its an octane -----. Its power can literlly change 75whp from pump gas to race gas. Even meth. injection only gets me so far.

Anyway, hope everyone enjoys the videos. I started with a HMT SOHC 89' civic, I'm going to miss it....
