Actually ended the season last week at Portland International Raceway's running 13.501 @ 100.33 mph on my stock internal ITR motor. My setup is a 99 Civic Si Coupe with AEM CAI, Apexi WS Exhaust and a Exedy clutch and flywheel. Other than that, theres not really much else to keep a secret. Just drive the hell outta the car (its not gonna break)... Oh yeah, untuned motor too...
Email me (erics99si@SirromMotorsports.com) if you want me to tell you all my little prepping details, but other than those minor things, its just a simple ITR motor with Intake and Exhaust... Plus my car's heavier than the real ITR. "Drive it like you stole it" is prolly my best advice... I swear everytime I see a stock real ITR running high, high 14's, low/mid 15's I just wanna smack them... "drive the damn thing like they built it to perform" you know... I drove a buddies ITR "only once" down the track and pulled a 14.7 in it to his 15.3's... not saying I'm the best driver in the world, just saying drive the car hard.... thats how I do it. There are so many people that think I have internals after seeing the times I pull, and all I tell them is... you think these times come from upgraded internals now, just wait until next year when I actually put them in... shooting for 12.8's this next season
