Raced 2 turbo hondas. One was my old hatch. 91 DX that dyno’d 260’s / 230’s the day before. Raced him a few times from different speeds. 30 - 50 mph rolls. Let off near 100 each time. Beat him.

Then I raced this other honda, it was a coupe, that didn’t dyno, but they were saying numbers near 320? Not sure, but anyways, same thing, did I think 2 roll races, maybe 40 and 50 mph starts, and I got him both times.

They had dyno charts, they all came back from the dyno in Ontario that day. Finally tuned those hamsters.

And thats pretty crazy if you were spanking STi’s with 226 whp. Even stock they run mid - low 13’s.

I’ll race that 226 whp NA civic if it is still around. I assume from the tense used, it is now gone, be it sold or turbo.

Big soft hoosiers on the street would be worse then street tires, unless he heats them up with a blow torch first 😛

lol, thanks choda. WHEN i had the car (sold now) it ran consistant 8.0’s in the 1/8 with about a 1.8-1.9 60ft in the low 90’s. however Since i started making that power i couldnt hook at the track even with my slicks so i was no longer cutting 1.7’s.☹ Car has been chopped into a million pieces and loaded onto a trailer and took to the scrap yard. the motor/tranny were sold.

Now i drive a bmw thats faster then your sti.🙂
