Thanks Brotha. I loved that setup. Very simple, made great power and very easy on the old wallet as far as cost. It had quality parts, tuned awesome, and ran flawlessly. I never had one single issue last year. ---

10.3 to 9s is a BIG jump but it’s important to consider the potential of the car. I am not familiar but if the car has 5-10PSI left in the setup (Really equates to power), or some tune, or some nitrous, etc…, it should be considered. ---

I didn’t think I needed to point out the obvious. 🙂 The trap and lack of traction show it has the potential. There’s probably power left on the table too. ---

amen brother folmsey. i can actually attest, mac’s car isn’t that bad. it actually pulls quite nicely for its age, and low budget cost. with some sorting, and a little more work it won’t be a bad little car at all. i guess its just the old guy in me saying that going fast doesn’t always matter to me… there’s always gonna be someone out there faster. my only limitation in building a fast car is money. > [@Decreasing the ingress/egress of my daily driver to lotus proportions](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/decreasing-the-ingress-egress-of-my-daily-driver-to-lotus-proportions/18002/15): > > 🤣rofl > > Jon, I started working on this car long before I knew about my kid… > > Like I’ve stated before a cars a car… to each is own… > > All you people get butthurt when I rag on a civic and ask a simple question such as why Arods car had a chute… Even last year when he was quite a ways from needing from when **I personaly saw him run…** I dont know arod, I think ive said hey to him a few times, and one time helped push his civic down the staging lanes… Sorry I dont know the ins and outs of his car like the rest of you tight knit civc fags > > I wasnt being a douchebag I was asking a quesiton… > > Like ive said before, clean civics such as the one in your sig, stalmers swifts and a few other I have lots of respect for, their fast well built cars… > > With that being said there just not my type of car.
