I had this dream last night. I was driving down Little road on my way to pasco to pick up my new gauge cluster last night and deciced to take the civic. I have not tuned it yet so i'm running 7 lbs instead of 12lb and i'm rich as hell. Because of this i havent been looking for any trouble. This dark green 3000gt VR4 with a boost gauge keeps flexing on me. I couldnt resist so after him taking a hit on me at 50mph i chased him down. I pulled him pretty good and about 100 we let off. We played for the next few miles with the same results. I pulled next to him to give him the thumbs up but he was not happy and ignored me. I cant wait next tuesday i'll be tuned on 12lbs. Then i can play some more;)

If you don't mind me asking on the forums what turbocharger are you running (if you do you can pm me)? Where was his boost gauge mounted? Good kills :D

I'm running a precision 60-1. The VR4 had the boost gauge next to the drivers pillar on the dash. The car was charchol grey.

Good kill. I think it's funny when someone loses a race, makes a poop face and pretends that the race never happened. LOL

Is it one of the SC series turbochargers? If so which one? I'm going to call BS! A FWD beating an AWD car ;) :p

Yes it's an SC series. should support 500whp at 22lbs. I'm not sleeved yet so dont worry. My next motor hopefully sometime this year will be with a little NOS. Lets say i dont plan on having any less then 650whp on that one.

<Off Topic>How come you didn't go with the SC61? I assume you have the SC60 or ... ?</Off Topic> You can take this to PM if you want ;)

Well we are putting an SC61 on my friends 4 door integra. It's pretty big. Basically Frank at SFP has turbos custom done. If it's not big enough i'll go bigger.

Yeah. I see SC61's every couple days or so. I sold my personal turbo for a 69 trim SC61E. A big SC61 is an SC61S with a PT-61 .96 A/R turbine housing :D Anyway ... Good luck with your tuning.

yeah he's got a pretty fast car, but yours must be stout. you got to be in the 11 10sec quarter mile.

Don't really know,ran a 7.3@96mph with the old carb,old converter and no juice.Stock suspention,with a 1.72 60' first time with it at the track.

seems like since then your running a hell lot better. I know he's a 11 or 12 car but street racing to me is a lot different than track. Good work though :). How much power are you making ???? Sam, should be at around 360 in that 240.

It dynoed just over 450 to the wheels,all motor,it's tore apart now and I'm building the new motor.Didn't get a chance to dyno it with the new carb and spray.

I went for a drive about 3:30 tonight. There was a black Grandnational on the bridge next to me. The plate said t46 turbo. I really wanted to go for it but will wait till i'm tuned. I'm sure i would have needed all 12lbs for him. Anyone know who he is?
