    An '89-91 CRX with a completely stock Integra Type-R engine and LSD transmission will run 13.0-13.1 w/ slicks at Commerce all night long and you know how slow that track can be compared to most others.

    I've seen a Civic EF Wagon run 13.0 there on slicks with a completely stock H22a (from the Prelude). Then i know someone that's run 12's in a stripped and caged 1st gen CRX run with a built SOHC engine.

    The main thing with these little monsters is the lack of torque so how it runs depends on the gearing, without the correct setup it simply will not be quick.

    Regulated by what?

    No weight = no traction.

    No regulating that.

    Tiny pics, thats all I could find:

    "His everyday car is a Australian 1988 Ford EA Falcon, fitted with an aftermarket turbo system. The car is basically standard, but the suspension has been lowered a little and stiffened with stronger springs and shockies. The 3.9 litre engine has been decompressed from 8.8:1 down to 8:1 to let him run 7psi boost without excess pinging. The factory specs for the car say that it's got 200kw (270hp), as it came from the aftermarket AIT factory in Melbourne. The torque available is absolutely amazing - There's no such thing as steep hills anymore ...
    The car's a real 'sleeper', and it's great fun to blow away V-8's - Whilst towing a loaded trailer!"
