I am not going to post power figures cause every dyno is different and should be used as a tuning tool.

fair enough still you would have to be making 180 - 200fwkw to run that time and that is huge power for an n/a 1.8lt

unless of coarse it its stripped out and weighs under 1000kg then you would need alot less power!

i know you said you dont like figures but my car put our 115 fwkw and weighs around 1400kg with me in it and i only managed a 15.4 @ 150kmh even with better tires and launch id be lucky to do a mid to high 14.

still it a great effort :thumbsup:

b series wont make anywhere near that power

1134kg and a high 12's needs to be making some decent power!!

the slicks must make a big difference cause your 60ft time is awsome for a FWD

If you understand drag racing the MPH normally tells you what power it is making for a car of that weight ET's come from the chassis and tyre setups that each car uses it is that simple.

i fully understand that and that is what makes it so impressive!!

he did a 12.9 @ 167kmh
in did 15.4 @ 150kmh

you would know that 17kmh doesnt normally = 2.5sec down the 1/4 so his chassis and tire setup were working very well! :thumbsup:

2.5 secs can usually be made up with a really good 60foot time, driver and driving style can make a huge difference..

congrats on the time, it's great to hear more Honda's are getting the ET's down.:thumbsup:

Just curious what was in the other lane that ran 15s..
