Well I got banned over there so I won't waste my time... Yes they seem to be the Rice capital of the internet.
I currently am planning to run the car NA in the 12's. I am not far from that right now. I have the HP to run well into the 12's but my gearing (24" slicks) sends me through the traps in 4th at almost 6000 RPM. I was planning to use smaller slicks to change the gearing, but I am afraid that this may cause my 60ft times to be a lot slower. Currently I pull 1.8 sec 60fts.

very impressive car

you arent gonna find too many NA accords out there that are that fast. NA is what i wish i would have done but i didnt. i am currently running 10 lbs of boost out of a T3/T4 and making 221hp and 238ft/lbs and thats before i did a few more things. i should be up arould 235-240hp and 245ft/lbs or so now. but i really dont think i'll be close to a 13.2 due to the fact that my cars heavier by a lot and the gearing is a lot different. i havent been to the track yet. its goin to HIN in Philly on March 16th i believe and its gettin stripped down and i'm buyin a new car

Hopefully people will be nicer over here. I look foreward to sharing info with you guys.

Why do you wish you had gone NA? How would that be a better choice with the F23A?

Thanks for your nice comments. I know that the NA rout is a difficult one, but there are a few Accords here in AZ that are running 13's NA. One such car is truley "gutted", but he is running a relatively stock H22a. My car is now Lighter than it was when I ran the 13.2 but since it was Lightened, I also started making more power. I haven't dynoed yet, but The addition of the Euro R manifold, SMSP 4-1 Header, and Link ECU should be netting me closer to 250 whp on pump gas. I should have it to the dyno in a few weeks to get the tuning finalized. So far at the track I spin my 24" slicks pretty good Even though I pull really good 60ft times. You can sure hear them Squeal into 3rd...LOL.
