                  Damn, your really digging. Is there something your trying to prove or wtf does what you just posted have to do w/ anything? i can take you out in it too on the street tires w/o a seat belt and probably make you piss your pants!

                  Neither GSR's car nor Kevin's hatch will stay in its own lane under 120mph and personally i wont drive anything on the street @ those speeds on slicks.

                    This all comes back to you haven't been in or built anything of that status so once again you wouldn't know!

                      Didn't think so. 😉 Misinformation spreads when people who have zero knowledge on a subject pretend that they do.

                      EDIT See http://www.honda-tech.com/ for examples.
                      Al I was doing, tufte, was bringing up the fact that while he might own a High compression boosted car, He doesn't race it on the streets, and when he's at the track he doesn't run decent times for the cars potential. I never claimed to know all, and he talks a lot of shit for someone who can't handle his car. Not saying I can do better, but I'm not the one running my mouth...

                        Then you shouldn't be talking @ all then.....

                        The motor is 9.8:1, nothing crazy. When you build a 500whp fwd setup you come find me and we'll take it out on radials and see how you'll push it.

                          Define a decent time? The 10th pass out on a STREET tune this year it ran 10.8 @ 136. It's run low 11s more times than you've ever seen the 15s.

                          Define my potential of my car? What do you know about it? Single stage boost no traction bars, 3 year old tires and 10.8 @ 136 on the 10th pass of the year, fuck thats horrible. Oh then it didn't do it again, but weird, that failing fuel pump completely fucked the tune over on the last weekend. I must really suck.

                          I've raced plenty of shit on the street, don't care to do it anymore period. Why risk my drivers license, my insurance, MY JOB, or my life. If you knew the back story on that night against the bike's you'd probably be able to talk shit, but I guess you really have no clue.

                          Go back to running back and forth and stirring shit up between shops because that's about all you are good at.

                            I have road in a couple 10/11sec cars as a passenger on the street and driven one or two at some point in time you realize the difference between a 13 sec car, or 15 in your case, and a 10/11 sec cars scare factor for one thing, it inst quite the clockwork you make it out to be...

                                    Part of what you're missing is that most variable valve timing systems don't have a "cross over point". The reason that **** is very pronounced is because it is a dual-cam-profile system - you're either on the hot cam or the cold cam. I don't know if more modern **** systems do cam phasing in addition to the profile-change over (i don't think early **** did that but i'm frankly not an expert or a honda historian 🙂 )

                                    With a VANOS system, and probably most cam phasing systems, you won't feel any sort of "step function" at all - the motor will just be making more torque than a non-adjustable engine with that cam grind would be at the same RPM and load.
