The car is CAPABLE of a 13 i know this for a FACT seen it done, some of the brisbane boys might know a ek civic called 17son that got around a while ago... that was a sedan bolt on setup similar to azz's and he had a d16y4 which is non vtec... azz's is vtec in a lighter car.... do the math mate

WEATHER AZZ does a 13 / 14 / 15 / 16 on his first few runs, its irelevent... his car is capable of a 13..... seen it done personally and plenty of proof on my first post to...

No he wont do his best times on his first runs because like everyone it comes down to technique and practice... i bet the first time you ran your teg you didnt do your best times.... dont you worry ill go down to the strip with him and my digital camera, ill get a vid some paperwork

MY MAIN POINT! IF THERE ARE OTHER CIVICS WITH SIMIAR SETUPS TO AZZ'S RUNNING 13'S THEN WHY ISNT HIS CAPABLE OF IT?

ahha man its funny how people when people react when they loose an argument and resolve to childish abuse .... got some advice for ya mate... go to the bottom of the page, click number 1, READ the initial post, its not about my car its not about azz's car not about anyone in specific.... purely about turbod16's and the potential they hold. Your the one who got sidetracked and brings up useless crap

Feel sorry for ya mate your the one that brings this crap up.... and yeh i got no probs with cruiseing around in my Pride and Joy civic

lol

I know who Dave is though I have not had the pleasure but have talked to him a few times

So fishman must know about Dave's research on D's then

Its like this!!!

Every time someone posts something good about D’s, the B’s boys come in a say bla bla B16/18

Is this not true?

Err.. You are joking right? Obviously you don't know the gap between a 14 second car and a 13 sec car. Not to mention people spend $1,000's trying to break into a 1 sec shorter bracket.

Yeah I've seen 17son's car run at willowbank raceway. If i remember clearly, he did a 16 sec pass. lol Best for the night was a 15 sec i think it was.

nah mate incorrect, from memory on his initial setup and basic tune he did run some 15s, but i do know for a fact at the end of haveing his car before he sold it he was down to consistant 13s... ill see if i can get in touch with him and see if hes still got the slips

nah bro 15's if he was lucky

ahhaha i remeber 17SON, my basic b16 setup was running faster times then him. Lyle, he ran 15's and that's a fact, no shit if you keep on spending money on it, it's gonna run faster. But the FACT was that his basic boosted D-series setup ran 15's, ALL NITE LONG behind my B16.

There is no point at looking at the potential of cars overseas, and saying that a shitty basic setup here is gonna do the same time. The only fast D-series down under i can think off is Weq's car. And that was no basic bolt on Ebay kit.

Ok. Lets talk "Similar Setup's"

Similar can mean the difference between a custom 3" exhaust and a high quality branded exhaust. From all of this, I think what Fishman's point is really that the US guys use very high quality parts that we in OZ may not be able to get our hands on. I mean lets face it, If you go on ebay and buy some unknown branded forged pistons that the seller claims to "increase horsepower" opposed to toda forged pistons for instance, do you think that the quality and improvement would be the same?

I don't know what parts you guys have to support the turbo setups you're currently running eg; exhaust, manifold, ecu, tune etc. But I do believe quality parts do make a difference and contribution between a 13 sec car and a 15 sec car.
