Don't forget seat time/driving skills. Try getting your times lower before lsd and slicks.

Stock suspension, Stock vx wheels (13s), Street tires.
Avg e/t 14.2 Best e/t 14.0
Avg 60 ft time 2.1
These e/ts were with a head wind. Stopped making passes due to snapping an axle completely off inside the diff.
13.9 is very possible with a stock b16 in a hatch especially when your 60 ft times are 1.9 like this kids are supposedly.

I don't believe in weight reduction. That's for drag only cars. I have a street car and it will be staying that way unless it is relieved of its daily driver status.

The best engine in the world is the vagina, it takes any size piston, its self lubricating, starts with 1 finger, and every 4 weeks does its own oil change. It's just a pity the management system is so fucking temperamental.

Ive seen similar results from my friends 99 si.He went over a period of time from running 13.7 on the bottle to 13.8 on the motor and almost breaking into the twelves with a set of slicks,ebay header,intake,and several trannies and axles later.He was a hardcore"78th street" racer and is known by a few people.

"You're Spectacle right?"
"Yea"
"Man I seen your car on TR, that thing is CLEEEEEN....its turbo right"
"Not anymore. I hate this car."
"You took off the turbo??? WHY?"
blah blah blah....
I dunno why but you people seem to think that taking off the turbo was the dumbest thing to do. Life is not all about going fast and sometimes you have to make sacrifices for other things. Everyone's jumping on the turbo bandwagon because they think its cool and the "cheapest and easist way to go fast." Well I'm sorry you are sadly mistaken because boost is the most addicting shit a person can do to their car next to shooting up heroin in it, which leads to you dumping more and more and more money into it. And easy? Whatever.
All in all...I am done with power adders until I am capable of applying my full attention to it. At this point I have other things on my plate and will just settle for having a 15 sec car. It does not bother me as much as you probably think it does.

Never have i heard soemone say turbo is the ''cheap'' way to go 
because shit if u think about it, u can hava a high comp "all motor" setup and yet u can still spray the shit out of it with some more tuning.
jsut my .02 cents though.
