60' time is everything, get that down and you et's will go down as well. you REALLY need to work on the 60' times...i pulled 2.3 on a totally stock 90 si hatch on some wallmart tires...just rev hard(5k+) and slip the clutch alot, a good run will have spinning off the line, but not sitting still spinning...spinning while you go forward. just keep practicing
btw..my friend ran 14.0@98 on on a gsr motor with only i/e in a cx hatch, cant remember his 60' time but it was around 2.1 i think.

Those hatches are fierce with the gsr motor, my buddy had a jdm b18c in a 94 cx and ran a 13.90 at 105mph! thats impressive, now i have the same motor in my 93 coupe with i/h/e and hope for the best at the track, i have no idea what this thing will run
