One of these past Fridays I Build a Motor, Put it in and tuned it on E-85  
The motor is a GE sleeved block my old race motor.  
Old Crower Rods with a spun wristpin bearing  
Some JE pistons I found in my Shed.  
The rings that where in my Race motor.  
GSR head with crower springs Retainers  
Skunk Pro2 Cams.  
Stock cam gears  
Cometec head gasket and AEBS studs  
ACL bearings  
Aeromotive A1000 and RC 1200’s without and injector Driver.  
Hondata S300  
the turbo is a Borg Warner 366XL (66.5mm)T4 .83ar  
![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Civic](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Civic) RPM boost.bmp]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Civic](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Civic) RPM boost.bmp)

The car went 10.39@135 the first pass at the track at import Vs domestic. I missed 4th and when i got it in it broke up. it was 115mph in the 1/8

I made another pass and it 10.5@134  
then my last pass it went 10.34@137 107 in the 1/8th

Overall i am going to leave it at this power level I am maxxing out the 1200’s and my A1000 is starting to leak (dont know why).

Yea I raced the “true street class” It was slicks on all cars and a 67mm turbo limit (4CYL) and all motor on V8’s. I have a feeling next year that that turbo limit will be like 61mm or something. because there was a civic that went 9.4@156

I built, installed, and tuned my car alone in 1 day.

this was on a stock ignition. too

Nice numbers man, i’m hoping for similar numbers next year, actually a bit more but not by too much

> because there was a civic that went 9.4@156

thats moving well for that turbo 🙂 hard for n/a V8’s to catch that.

I wish i could have gotten my nitrous bottle filled up i would have loved to see what it would have done on the sauce. oh well, have a cracked flexplate so no more driving or me this year ☹

Next year i’ll have a new setup to tune so i’ll be hittin up your shop for sure
