i now have a better job where i am getting $200 to $250 per week. what should i buy? i want an all out drag car and my goal is to be in the 14's by the end of the summer. turbo? I (as you saw in another thread) am getting a header, motor mounts, clutch, flywheel, etc. What else? Any suggestions. And I WILL NOT go the N2O route....
Take your first pay check, buy the previously suggested Helm's manual for $60, and then contact our new tool sponsor about getting a torque wrench, basic socket set (metric), and box wrenches. Preludeonline members get 20% off. Best money you wil ever spend on your car.
It never fails that people are BLOWN AWAY when their Helms manual arrives at their door. If you want to do more invasive work than oil changes and changing fuses, I'd say it's pretty much a necessity.

I COULD NOT AGREE MORE.

i have a full set of craftsman sockets, wrenches, screw drivers, torque wrench, etc......what other tools do i need? I AM getting a helms, i have a chilton's right now - parents got it instead of a helms because it was cheaper - and i have come to the conclusion that it is almost useless. After the helms, then what?

Then they obviously are lacking on the driving skills or need a tune-up. Lets not start this arguement. Everyone pretty much knows the times for the stock cars and the S is NOT .3-.4 behind the VTEC.
Alright, alright...15.330@89.62, with a whopping 2.319 60'. I know, pathetic. A certain someone beat me that same day...hmmm, I wonder who that may be?

Ok are u running on a 1/8 track cause theres no way a F22 is even near the h22. and ur trying to stay away from the h22? your gonna get nowhere tryin to that 14's in that motor (130hp,parts.ect..) unless you use a 100 shot.
