My TC is bone stock plus 100lb system
the Teg has Intake, Exhaust, and Pulley and his system weighs probably 50lbs
first time we race I only had 700 miles on my car ( I raced early because we expected to have the Teg turbo soon)
he took off on me and I didnt pull pass him til 4th gear
I just raced him again last week, now with 2400miles on the car. I took off on him(now that I got use to my car) and all I can do is look back to make sure he is still there LoL
(only a car length but you know what I meant)
I beat him 6times and a 99prelude a 3 car race =oP
the for fun i raced my brother's prelude a JDM Type S motor...haha lets just say his tail light looked nice that night

 

[raytrix]

nice kill on the integra...nice try on the prelude haha

 

[ElementRacingTRD]

well i didnt even want to race because I raced in my brothers car before, beating GTs camero and what not. but I had my fun for the night beating Hondas hahaha I was a bit surprise in beating the 99lude though 200hp losing to a 160hp weighing at 2900lb. preludes dont weigh that much more

 

[Zygote55]

preludes are lighter than the tC, and a decent driver in a prelude would have killed you.

 

[ElementRacingTRD]

then I dont know whats the deal with him than unless he got a ####ed up lude sucks for him

 

[airswipes]

which type of integra? can't be a gsr you're talking about.. as for the lude, i would think it was the driver you beat. was it manual or the sportshift.

01+ preludes are actually about 100lbs heavier then the tc, not geared as well, and have much less torque.. unless the prelude is modded it's not going to beat a tC.

A guy I work with runs 15.5 in his stock 01 prelude....I've seen it.

Somebody hasn't been reading up on his HP vs Torque threads.

 

[zeromotorsports]

theres no such thing as a 01+ lude...they stopped production in 01. the 97-01 preludes however did have the H22 with 200hp but also weighed 3042lbs. shouldve been able to beight you but if the lude is auto or ur friend cant drive its also within reach of a tc. what year is your bro's lude?

 

[ElementRacingTRD]

my friends teg is an LS, and the lude I have no clue who he is but it was an manual. had 2 guys in it and a big ass system, 2 15s maybe that slowed him down? but they switched drivers for 2 races and the other guy was a better driver, yet i still beat them. (they were air force men)

 

[airswipes]

your friend got an ls..wow he should've spent the money he used on his mods to swap the head and it would've been way faster. ls/vtec is nice...

 

[ElementRacingTRD]

ls/vtec is nice. but he going ls turbo, its cheaper. I raced that prelude again...he scared now becaue he was hesitant of racing me. of course I whoooped him again.

 

[zeromotorsports]

ls turbo is nice...and cheap

thats what i had in my civic hatch only weighed about 2000lbs and was pushing about 230hp with the turbo

 

[f1jay]

a stock integra ls does a 0-60 in 7.4 and 1/4 @ 15.9 according to car and driver magazine and being the owner of one I can verify that. Having a tc beat one is almost surprising, the tc may be 20 hp more but the integra is also 200 lbs heavier.

 

[Zygote55]

The stock tC does 0-60 in 7.5 and 1/4mi in 15.7.......

 

[Ryan'stc]

Do you really think that 20 hp can be canceled by 200 lbs of weight? For all we know the integra driver could weight 100 lbs more than the tC driver lol.

 

[ElementRacingTRD]

umm...you are missing out 1 factor...torque

 

[ElementRacingTRD]

tc has 36more lb of torque which that makes up for the 200lb difference ez adn the extra 20 hp is used to smoke it (not really) but yeah it will beat it
