It didn’t die, that civic was so much faster it made it look like it died.

well i beleive at the time the dsm was a 150mph car. and remember first two gears of this civic are a lower boost setting…im sure 3rd gear is the 30psi+ gear along with 4th…he’s prolly adding an instant 100whp or more and better traction at higher speeds. Back half of the track is where its at with these huge turbo honda setups running a gear based boost… and Nice find, chris. things runs.
