> For reference with your run (stock H22 in my EK hatch, first time on a track), I pulled 9.2 1/8ths on bad street tires, launching just under 5k, shifting @ 8k. I’ve seen a lot of people say that H22’s quit breathing over 8k, but I haven’t been on a dyno or seen a decent sheet to show that.

where does your v-tec come on at? w/ this car, it is not until 5500 rpms. i think that is hurting some-- could probably come in high 4k’s. i know i got room on the 60 foot to improve. what type of 60’s were you getting? i was still at full tire pressure, quickie burnout just to get the water off. could proably come up higher on my launch. 3k ran the 2.3, 4k did a 2.4 wheel hoping. maybe 5k will will have the best of both worlds, some hop but hook and go.
