Just thought I would reply and at least put my 2 cents in. This is my car, the same one I have owned and worked on for 2 years. I don't like being told I am full of BS but then again I wouldn't be posting the times if I didn't think they weren't something to be proud of so I can see where the times would be questioned. I have posted plenty of proof, videos, timeslips, and people who have vouched for me. I have posted times, slips, and vids, all through my build of the car from the time I got it bone stock to when the motor first went in, to the time I first turboed the car, up until now. All those posts are under my name on Honda-tech.

I bought the car and put a bone stock 2nd gen B16 in it. Didn't upgrade the clutch or anything, just drove it. It started off running high to mid 14's. Then got it down to low 14's and invested in some drag radials which got me a 13.9 timeslip with only I/H/E. I drove this setup for a year. Right before I decided to go turbo I took the tranny out to fix a noisy input shaft bearing in the tranny. At this time I bought a stock Exeddy/Honda clutch off of a clutch store on Ebay for $160. It is a bone stock B16 OEM Honda clutch. The turbo went on almost exactly a year ago and is the basic DRAG kit. FMU, inline, deltagate. I also had a walbro 255 intank that was already in the car. I ran this setup at first to 12.6's in the 1/4. After dropping the very small exhaust and going up in boost to 8psi it ran low 12's. I then adjusted the slick pressure and went up to 10psi. At the Nopi NDRA race at St.Louis I drove 200 miles to the track, took out the back seat, put on the slicks and ran a 12.0 off the bat. I lowered the pressure in the slicks and in the 1st round of qual. in turbo4 went 11.84 at 112.58 against the ZEX CRX which got me into the field. In the first round the next day I ran another 11.88 agaist a 10 second Eclipse and was eliminated. My times and name are still on the Nopi/NDRA site. Titan was there and saw the run, I was pitted with Clay Sloan which won the last NHRA race in all motor and he saw the run along with his crew.

Me and my brother are partners in a shop here in Evansville, IN. We have the areas only Dynojet dyno and my car has seen many runs on the dyno. The A/F is rich but right on the mark. This complete setup is my daily driver 40 miles round trip per day. It drives to all events and has over 15k miles on it this year alone without one broken part, axle, or one problem.

I have nothing to hide and no reason to lie. My car is the real deal and I would be happy to let anyone check my car over and witness the car make passes. The motor is going to be built this fall and I will be happy to take many pictures of everything as it comes apart for anyone who would still doubt it. Until then, believe what you want it's up to you.

is evansville near ball state university. i went to school there. sounds like a sweet setup. my friend brian had a b16 in his hatch running 9psi on street tires and only managed a 13.2 thats a complete stock motor too. so if he at 1psi and got slicks he could run low 12s huh?

I was afraid of something like this would happen. I would hate for the people who vouche for you come over here and start ----. Well if its true than its true. Not trying to insult you or anything it was just hard to believe at first thats all.
