you do any spinning at all?

 

i know with most cars if they spin at all the trap is higher than it should be..

 

if not, i'm thrown for a loop and your car pulls hard as hell and needs so beef ass axles so you can drop the hammer on it from the launch.

so if you are transferring your current drivetrain what is to become of the type s? you transferring all your other hybrid parts to it as well? putting the civic back together to sell off or just drive as a grocery getter?

i would like to know the same thing^

 

i wanna come up and check out the hatch when you get it running and such. down here in maine theres not a very big tuner seen and id love to check out a k20 hatch. are you gonna keep it looking stock? or do you plan on paint and body kit? i think stock looking would be the balls no one would expect a boosted k20 but then again with you driving im sure people wouldnt put it past you. your prolly pretty well known in your area

yes the em2 will hopefully be sold. i just want rid of it to help fund this. this is gonna be a drag car sol , no dash no interior no nothing.

 

little more progress , car is pretty much a shell besides some wiring , rear sus. , and glass. little bit of body work and a cage welded in comming next.
