He's talking 1/8th mile not 1/4. Reasonable time.

to me that time is NOT what a 99-00 SI should run with those mods. What was your 60' time? that will pretty much tell the story. If it was a 2.3 or higher... you need to drop that puppy to a 2.2 at least and you will see your times drop a couple tenths. I think a stock 99-00 Si should run about a 10.0 in the 1/8 and maybe a 15.6-15.7 in the 1/4.

Let us know your 60' time. Put is this way... I just went to the local track here(Atco Raceway NJ) and ran my 91' Integra RS at full weight, 156,000 Miles on it and all stock except cut-off muffler. This is what my slip looked like:
R/T: .403
60' 2.232
330': 6.372
1/8: 9.850
MPH: 70.65
990': 12.781
1/4: 15.434
MPH: 87.37


Oh.. also post your MPH for the 1/8 along with the 60'

1/8 ET-10.2832
1/8 MPH-70.63
It was only an 1/8 mile because it was thing called high school night, so they only ran the 1/8 mile. so let me know how those times sound. i read them right off my time sheet.

See.. your MPh is almost IDENTICAL to mine in the 1/8. Drop that 2.4 60' down to a 2.2 and you will run a 9.8 in the 1/8 just like me. It's not your car... it's you. I am not trying being rude in any way... just keep going and keep getting better. It will also help alot if you drop your front tire pressure down to about 20Psi and have the rears at about 40Psi. It's not a BAD time... it should just be alot better. You will get it down man... Just kep practicing.

yea i get what your saying man. i went from a b16 crx i had to my Si and its alot different. im still learning how to drive my Si, ill admit it. but no one else around here as an Si and I just didnt know if that was good or not. ill have to try changing my tire pressure like you said. thanks for the pointer. but i will get better as time goes by, im not worried. im gettting a t3 garrett turbo in 2 weeks, so that will deffinatly help my time! talk to you later man. write back.

If you can't control a 160hp car off the line, you'll have a hell of a time with more power.

People get so offended. He makes a valid point, your times look like you had a lot of wheel slippage off the line. If you add 75-100whp it's only going to be worse. Power != speed
