Sorry this is about a month or so old now but I don't come here to often. Thought I would update the guys that don't visit Honda-Tech with my new best.

Car: 2001 Type-R.
Mods: AEM CAI, JDM DC header, test pipe, STOCK EXHAUST, STOCK WEIGHT, no other mods. Running on Potenza SO-3's (not drag radials).

60'....2.1 ( have hit a 2.0 on a different occasion)
1/8mi....8.8@81mph
1/4mi....13.737@100.4mph (best trap of 100.7mph)

Backed it up with another 13.7, two 13.8's, and a few 13.9's.

What have you taken out of the car? Spare tire, Jack, Passenger seat, back seat?

Weighed th car right before you race?

I say stock weight even though I had my spare tire/jack and rear seat out (passenger seat was still in) because I was running on my heavier than stock CRV rims which IMO cancel out any of my weight savings.

you know what, i'm amazed that you guys can pull times in the high 13s stock. i don't drag race but, i track my itr at the race track. one time i was following this s2000 and i was faster than him in the corners because i had stickier tires but, as we were approaching the straight away i was on his bumper. when we hit hit the straight he just walked away from me (about 3 car lengths) it took me about 5 turns to catch back up to him.

now if memory serves me right, i think the s2000 does a 13.8 1/4 mile then how are stock type-rs doing the same when i know the s2000 is faster. i know you guys are telling the truth, don't get me wrong but, i was wondering if anyone knew the answer.

My R isn't stock. It doesn't have many mods but it still isn't stock. Bone stock vs bone stock an S2000 is faster. Most S2000's aren't in the 13's anyway because you have to launch them high and the clutch can't take the abuse. It's more common to see them running mid-low 14's at the strip.

I don't mean to sound like a hater, but that seems really fast to me. What was the altitude and temp outside. I have never heard of a type r doing anywhere near a high 13 with intake and header. Are you using a g-tech pro to back this up, or is this at a real race track. If you do the math HP, weight, distance, I don;t think that physice would allow it.
Just my thoughts, but if it is true... good job and congrats.

I have a 98R that is runing 13.83 with intake, header stock exhaust, ATS Final Drive and full interior. I totally believe this is possible. On street tires.
