with his mods and a 50 shot AND clutch flywheel, mid 13s seem more plausable, if u got traction that is....DRAG RADIALS!

greek lude......with all those mods and everything you only hit a 14.961? i hope that was without all those mods....

What would you recommend doing after aem cai, mugen exhaust, mugen headers, aem pulleys and apexi v-afc ?
Any suggestions ?

Not turbo unless you plan on selling the intake and the header.

LUDECHICA · 07-31-2002, 07:37 AM

I would go with:
ITR TB, port and match mainfold, and hondata gasket

We have to understand that each track is defferent. If I take my car to a fast track with favourable temps, altitude it could hit 14.5's. Understand. Even at the same track if you go the next day you could be a 1/2 second off. So in the end to me as a car enthusiast I never beleive in times or mag race. My only comparison on how well my car performs is with other 5th gens in my club. The result you ask? I rape em left right and centre. An no that time was not with those mods. Did you see my trap speed? How many of you can do that with i/h/e? It was my 60ft that suffered. RE92's offer jack for traction.

And so you also know. see that S in my sig? I went for a trip with 10 of them. I was not only hanging with them. I was edging them out top end. Off the line they would get me like mad however. lol

Set up the suspension and then go to driving school. That's all...that's all you need to learn how to kick ass on the tracks (not drag strip...it's not a track) and at the autocross. And yes, pay off the credit cards.

What's wrong with FI? I sense an "all motor" movement now. Just like the "JDM" thing has been for the past year. All motor tuning takes a hell of a lot more fine tuning by real engine experts to get it right - just beware (in other words, there's a lot that can go wrong). To me, for the risk involved in screwing with engine internals, the cost involved and for the amount of HP gained from doing so, I'd opt for the JRSC instead. Only my opinion - nobody's right, nobody's wrong.

Greek Lude · 07-31-2002, 12:10 PM

Wouldn't it be better to give your review on FI or the JRSC after you have installed it?

pearl type sh · 07-31-2002, 12:14 PM

i agree credit cards need to go...
to much debt, thx to my bananna

Like I said, nobody's right, nobody's wrong. No, I don't have a JRSC on my car yet but that's the way I'm going. Like a lot of people, I read about various ways to tune an engine from many different sources and I formed my opinion that way.

I know the JRSC is not exactly plug and play, but there's no doubt it's a lot harder to screw that up then cams, port-polish, etc. Whenever you're taking apart engine internals there's more at stake....

I don't know about that. I think there is more at stake running nonintercooled boost on a high compression motor. If things go wrong (and this has happened to several JRSC ludes), then you will be looking at taking apart engine internals anyway.

Have you researched FI and the JRSC? Are you aware of how many people have blown their motor with the JRSC? Are you aware that at least half of stock JRSC ludes run dangerously lean? Did you know that it can cost thousands more to customize the JRSC lude setup to make it right?

Greek Lude · 07-31-2002, 01:25 PM

Who's motor went toast with FI and why

cuseC08 · 07-31-2002, 06:35 PM
