I finally got a chance to get to the dragstrip this weekend. Been waiting all year, and I hit my goal. My goal was low 14’s. Lines were long in the staging lanes so I only got to run once. Wish I had a chance to go again.
This is at 9 psi. Spinning through first and most of second. I need better tires. Here is a list of mods.
92’ RS w/ stock internals
SSAutochrome manifold (i know what you think, but I like it)
Garret t3/t04e turbo
HKS Standard Wastegate (7.4 psi orange spring)
XOXO Front mount intercooler (ebay special)
GReddy type-rs BOV
2.5" custom downpipe
2.5" Test pipe
Tanabe Hyper Medallion Catback Exhaust
Competition Clutch Stage 2
Mitsubishi 450cc injectors
Air pressure regulator from air tank (my manual boost controller)
Prothane Motor Mounts
Civic 1/2 sized radiator
Uberdata Tuned (by me)
The manifold is braced 6 times. Two times from the flange on the head to the t3 flange. Four times from the T3 flange to the pipes. I do have a flex pipe on the downpipe.
The pics on my digital camera are too big a file. I need to size them down then I will post them. The total cost I spent was around $2000. I got the injectors free from a U-Pull-A-Part yard. I used to work at Advance Auto Parts, they donated some stuff. (Intercooler piping, clamps, oil fittings and lines, small stuff)
Plus I installed everything myself. That keeps the cost down alot. And I don’t even have a garage.
