im guessing this comes from personal experience? lol. i see you have a 99 si, so i can imagine. im really looking forward to it though. the only thing im not looking forward to is traction problems, lol

Yes, wyou have the same motor as mine (b16a2) you will be able to run 10psi all day long. Your car is going to be nuts. What is the ECU set-up do you have cooking?

However, I MUST state that even though I have very bad *** street car, high HP numbers dont mean jack chit on the circuit. I found that out last week. After you do your setup, set at least $600 aside for coilovers.

I dont think you will have too much traction problems. If I set my e-wastegate for a violent kick in (sharp setting) and under WOT, it will do a little tire hop. But then again my wheels might be different from yours.

What you NEED TO BE CONCERNED about is if you have the tranny that came out of a 99-00 si, you will find that you will be putting down some serious heat. Im not kidding on that one. Get an ext gauge.

When Im cruising @ 90mhp, im doing about 4.5 rpm... in turn the exhaust spits out about 1500 degrees!!!!! Look into a water kit pronto... im doing the same.

I have ' a good set of lowering springs '. It doesnt help. Trust me. I had bone stock CRX Civics with 2k in suspension eating me alive all day long at the track.
