i love your car, but jesus... you must be crazy if you believe that.DigitalShift said:Also, the company that makes these dyno'd them with their own custom cams, ECU and header and made nearly 290whp on a stock K20A R.
yeah, and it only took what can only be described as 10's of thousands of dollars to beat a stock evo from a highway roll. a stock evo 9 may give him a little trouble, though.Rex_89 said:
Yes, they are from the UK.. They are not widely known in the US. Clockwise Motion, they develop F1 parts and all kinds of crazy stuff.tangy said:
To the gentleman that said I'm crazy for beleiving it.. I dont think you understand.. Go to IPS's website they dynoed their cams, TWM 52mm ITB's, valvesprings & retainers, header, and with tuning made about 260-270whp..maybe more now.
This car that I was referring to was not a Civic, it was a K20A Type R in a Lotus Elise..in Europe. With the roller ITB's, their custom cams, their custom header, and tuning with their own ECU made almost 290 to the wheels...all motor. Nothing else.
As for the Evolution, I'm not worried about what you say..or what all the other kids say. A K swap hatch will beat an Evolution from a roll from a stop even in reverse..I dont care what you say, I've seen it happen. Tens of thousands of dollars? About $15,000 for a really fast K swap Civic(the grey one in the video) thats HALF the sticker price of an Evolution.. you tell me where the value is.
I dont want to get into this again, but look at the facts. A K-swap Civic with trap over 100mph..about 107-108mph. Stock Evolutions trap about 100mph. You do the math, they are so fast because they get 1.8-1.9 60fts stock. I'll get 1.8s with huge slicks..
Dont even trip. I know the K20s will beat evos all day. Like I've mentioned before, I know this dude with a K20 with cams in his EG that kills Evos all day. At the track he ran an 11.6 on the bottle. Thats still basically a stock motor and nitrous runin 11s. If anyone wants to see what K motors can do, go to CMI this weekend at Sacramento Raceway. Team Power Line is coming with 5 K motors. Doubt anyone will challenge them.
That is the truth too..Rex_89 said:
I'm going to run a 75 shot and I will break into the 11s on slicks. No question.
A good friend of mine has an A2 in an EK, with a JRSC and 100shot and he runs low low 11s on slicks. With the proper traction 10s.
wow, have been waiting to see the final pics and what a result, super job. 8) 8)
congrats man
congrats man
Dam man simply the cleanest car i have seen on here. Everything u have done to this makes it just HOTT. Plus u got the K20 in there makes everything 10x better. Yeah if u r squeezin and on Slicks or BF GoodRich street slicks u should be runnin around on the 11's. I suggest u get some BG GoodRich's if u havent because if ur just drivin and some domestic pulls up and ur on street tires you will get smoked cause u will just be spinnin, unless u already have some on i didnt see wat tires u had on. But looks clean as hell man. Cant wait till i get my EG wit a k20 
Here is the video guys, nothing special. It is 2 1-3rd gear pulls. The first pull the car didnt hit VTEC.. the 2nd run was the good one.
Turn the volume up!!! BTW that is how it sounds with the Buddy Club Spec II...aka open header.
