i did that before once, but i never messed with the rev limit... it was like 3-4 years ago...i was 17 and driving a 99 civic si it had almost 50,000 miles.. i was racing in stockton,ca on arch... i was racing threw the whole night.. my friend had a 96 black cvc hb b16a squeezing.. we raced CBI's 4 door civc that night i think..
well what happen was that i was racing and i was in 3rd gear and i power shifted into 4th but i miss shifted into 2nd and blew up my first motor...
... i didnt call my parents cause what would that do... just get me more lectures and if your asian you know what i mean by this... lectures and lectures... so i just towed it back home and dealt with it like a man
after i blew it... i took apart the motor finding out that i had water in the cylinders and i found i cracked my block..
if you guys are wondering what happen to the 99 civic..
i sold the car as is to my cousin w/ no motor.
Now he has a fully built b20vtec built by midnight performance
i was young and foolish and i still am
but its fun and i like working on cars
thats been my hobby since i was a kid
