do you have an aftermarket clutch or is it stock? i would lower the tire pressure and drag the clutch a little. i should be up keystone on fridat hope to see you there.

i will be glad to take advice as long as your not a Jkan2001...i mean dick.

i dont give excuses, yes my car ran a mid 15 turboed, so what, when i go in a couple weeks, ill show you real times, and i dont call traction an issue, its something you have to deal with, a clutch is uncontrolable.

i don't agree with crucial much but :werd: you can put out 1000 hp at the crank but if you don't get any of it to the ground because of your clutch you may not even make it down the track. Besides crucial is still on low boost with a fmic, just wait till he gets tuned and jacks the boost up he'll be walking gsr hybrids like you all day

did you see the pictures of my old clutch/fly/pressure plate..look at the tread.

i needed to ask you something....i think my turbo is missing a bolt.

when you look down at turbo buy the housing meets the downpipe, i think, there are 1(2) bolts there, they are a 14,15,16 mm size...i have one, but i htink the bottom one is missing, can you tell me?

hey huviduc. id suggest you put your steelies on when u run like some people on here have said. i will be statin some times ive run not tryin to bash just usin em to help explain. but when i went to nopi in VA i ran and i have basically the same setup as u. first run i ran the steelies at regular PSI for like driving and ran a 14.5 with a decent launch but like i said before i had no tach so i cant tell u wat RPMS. when my car was runnin the stock motor i would usually put my PSI to about 20 in my steelies and i could launch real well at about 4500, i found out that 20psi is not good for the steelies with the new motor. i had a lot of hop or spin problems. it was hopping so bad that now i think i have a broken axle, so i wouldnt suggest lowering the pressure too much. the whole first day i had to mess around with the tires at a low pressure bc i didnt have an air pump so i was stuck with them at 20 or lower. it was hell tryin to get off the line. that night i got on honda-tech and yes they can often be more helpful and less of dicks than most people on this board. somone recommended keepin the pressure at about 25-26, with this i managed to pull a 14.3 and be rather consistant. in the brackets during the day when it was really hot i ran two 14.57s in a row with a 14.55 dial in and then it cooled down considerable and i ran the 14.38 or watever it was. but from my experience i would say throw the steelies on and run em at about 25-26 psi. also mess with the suspension. i donno if its adjustable at all. but if it is stiffen the real loosen the front some. if height is adjustable have the front a lil lower than the rear. hope this helps u in some way.
