The price they gave me was $6295...

That's what he says...

I'd like to be able to get this made though, so others can benefit...

Well if the ricers are the ones in civics, with the kits they have such an abundant source of then...

you will be surprised when a little civic does 9 seconds!

This looked like a cool project, sad that no one is intrested.

It was actually sarcasm,
I had a nastiesr post, but i cleaned it up... I want the thread to be cool again : ]I know civics can be fast.

Honda eater, you are the maxima.org benevolent benefactor hehehe.

What about traction? OK having an extra 100-150 HP is great, but with a FWD car, as opposed to say a 350Z, makes obtaining traction to hold the power more of an issue than toque steer I believe.

I would assume the need for adjustable shocks at the very least. I can spin my tires stock if I try. I would love to TC the car, but the FWD just makes it more of a tricky tune for street use.

The 2k2 alreeady have 220 dynoed HP(roughly), do we think that with 320-350 HP this car's chassis will accept that at the front wheels?

Just thinking out loud.

I see a couple of you guys are near the Canadian border. There's another company out of Ontario called Powertech Imports who is in direct battle with SSR. They're pretty big with the Spec-V guys, already having a turbo kit for them. Anyway, sometime back they offered me the chance to do a turbo kit with them, but right now just isn't the time for me. I'm currently in Iraq with my car in the care of my father in Florida. With having no real way to do the paperwork or anything and basically no way of trasporting the car accross the border it just didn't pan out. But, maybe one of you could be able to it. Call them and ask for Jamie, you can tell him Chris from Florida sent you. Also mention I'm in Iraq and he'll know who you're talking about. Anyway, just trying to give you guys another option besides SSR. Good luck.
