My first Experience with Boost... Never looked back since

99 Honda Civic Si EPB (found these old Pics) SUPERCHARGED VTEC FTW
Mods were

Walboro 255/ JRacing Supercharger @ 7 psi / Kamikazee Header / DC Sports Exhaust / Exedy Organic Clutch & 7lb Flywheel / Civic Type R Knob and Short Shifter / JR FMU / AEM FPR / K&N cone Intake / Cold Plugs / Coil Overs & Upper and lower Tower braces / constant check engine light

Ran 7lbs of supercharged Boost all the way to 8500 Rpms.... probably 195HP at the Wheels... good for a low Fourteen if i got traction lol











And then She really did get blown up ... lol (check the first pic .. under the hood sticker)

195 to the wheels on what dyno? I did 207 in the Evo on a Mustang, and I'm pretty sure Evos are running in the 13s. A civic with traction and that much horsepower should be able to do at least that, if not better.

it was your regular dyno dynamics... the thing is there is no weight up front to get traction till 3rd gear and i never ran summer tires on it..

thats why i upgraded to subaru and then the evo
