Aaron's build: The Quest for 400whp.
 
Guess I'll just start from the beginning.

1997 Honda Civic EX. Stock engine.

After getting the car in 2005, I started playing with it. I/H/E first, useless waste of money. Added a supercharger... well that was fun for the first month, then it got boring again. So, pulled off and sold the SC, and added a turbo. A nice, big, juicy turbo.:mrgreen:

Mmm... 57trim.

Right now, on the stock D16Y8, it dynoed at 210whp and 167 wtq at 7psi. Ran 14.1 at 102mph at Cecil county... gotta love them 2.35 60's lol.

So now I'm building up another Dseries and going for 400whp on race gas.

Basically. Built D16Z6 block, Zex cam, ramhorn mani, and some bigger injectors. Also rebuilding and regearing the ****ty Dseries trans... and then next time down the track i'll be sporting hot sticky drag radials lol.

The car as it stands.

Wait... Roosevelt meets? Think you have the wrong car haha, the only meets I really made it to this year were the RT tuning meet and the Maple Grove meet. Also a couple of meets down at the Gold Gym. I may be mistaken, but I don't think I've ever been asked to run yet haha.

Fogs are love or hate.:)

Thanks for the compliments.

Really nice Civic. I think the car that subwrxkid is talking about ia another civic that drives around. It looks just like yours, I think he might have the same rims>?

Crzyguy972 01-15-2007 01:25 PM

very nice, for me personally i think powdercoating hte wheels black would look a lot better. but it is your car. so do as you please. looks really good though

IntegrasAreBest 01-15-2007 04:09 PM

nice civic! i see you have resisted the temptation of a bseries swap.
