So, he's running a Turbo at 8-9psi, and apparently a 40 shot of Nitrous.
I understand bracket racing, and that it's not about who's got the faster car. But still, why only 16s???
I should be running in the 13's at least I'd hope. After spending roughly $4000 on motor work for a Turbo kit and Nitrous, I'd be upset with 16 second time slips.
What yall think?

i'm thinken its gotta be a tiny little turbo, stock ecu and injecters, and a worn out clutch. that gives you sub 17 sec passes

Yup shitty driver - in the second video the car bogs so much between 1st and 2nd gear it looked like he hit the brakes.

I was under the impression that integras (non gsr/type-r) were 16 second cars to begin with.

Las Vegas is at 2200 ft. elevation, which robs cars of a LOT of power. Also he could have an automatic and he isn't brake torqueing (which a lot of people with automatics do when they're bracket racing).

I've seen a guy in a 97' or so bone-stock integra gsr run 15.1 so Ill say that guy sucks at driving.

Does he win (take way too long to d/l the video)? If he wins then I say, that's why he runs 16s, lol.
I mean me personally, I'd rather bring home the money then brag about my ET, lol.
