Dunno what happened to previous thread. Here's goes again:

How can this guy run a 12.1(on slicks) and not blow his motor from running lean? I thought just simple exhaust and intake bolt-ons require bigger pump & secondaries let alone what this guy has. He wrote me back basically saying the motor is totally stock and running off stock injectors as well.

Hmmm...the sellers says upgraded turbo, but very few details otherwise...

Even with the slicks, it's only about a second faster, which means the car should already run low low 13's.

I'd be wary about sellers who give out vague information like this.

Crap, when I saw the pics, I thought Kenny Lew was selling his car, but it's not the same car.&nbsp Kenny's car came with a custom set of Sparco mesh rims that were custom ordered white with blue lip.&nbsp Plus, Kenny's car is a true Kouki car, not like this fake for sale.

Goto some cardomain sites and you'll see 300HP civics with only a CAI.
