Made on the dyno at one time 1100 horsepower
Welcome back to another episode of this verse that this is like an entire 90s dream and nightmare for me
This is absolute battle of the opposites import domestic front wheel rear wheel. I mean, let's
What's up, dude, what did you bring here today? My name is Robert Romero from Las Vegas, Nevada
I brought my 92 Acura Integra Honda purists will say how can you do this to a GSR before?
I had a different turbo kit on here. I used to have JDM one-piece headlight on here
I had a big hole and I just get it shit all the time
This is also the fastest second-gen
Integra in the world and I also heard that back in the day you pulled out the b17 a1 and you were boosting a
B20 original. Yeah, we actually just put this motor together probably two days ago. It's got Tron pistons
BME rods got a
port flow
Cylinder head switch trans. I see you got a billet bell housing. Yeah, I got a Liberty billet bell housing and it's at a PPG
one through four
So why the billet bell housing just odd to help it
Yeah, I keep it strong together the gear set doesn't separate in there what turbo what type of power?
It's a gen 2 precision 72 85 for front-wheel drive or front-wheel drive. Yeah, this whole car
This whole car is set up for a sport for 20 26 5 front tire
We normally run a 24 and a half front tire, but as of the surface here
We're gonna run a 26 26 a little bit more grab out there. So now to about 10 5 11
What's the power power?
It made on the dyno at one time 1100 horsepower
1100 horsepower to the b18. We got the one-off custom hush performance front end on here that nobody made one for this car
So we actually had to innovate a little bit and get people on board with us to make parts for this car
So this is what we ended up getting the three. So this is a we color to the Aztec
Love that this car was built for sport front-wheel drive. Yes. So that means 72 mil turbo
26 and a half inch tall tire, but
Interior, right? Like yeah, it would have a front half interior carpet door panels
It still maintains the original glass all the way around with the moonroof. What does this thing weigh?
2450 pounds with me in it
Holy crap, we have the the rear and kick back a little bit so we get some more
So we can stretch the legs a little bit. So you stretch out the wheelbase. Yeah
So we have a Zepo the Z flow fab on the rear damn
You don't notice it at first, but then you look at that bone, right?
You're like talking way back here, but you got all this gap way up front got the classic speed holes
Those been on there since way back when I bought this car
I've had this car for over 10 years. I bought it for 500 bucks
I did a lot of street stuff with it and then just started progressing to build on it
You want to talk about best ET or best 60 foot or any of that?
So we're 863 at 174 in the quarter-mile. What type of 60-foot does this one 560 foot?
This thing sounds pretty insane, okay, that looks pretty damn mean that's the guy we were running from most of time
This episode is brought to you by HP tuners. They make all sorts of tuning data logging diagnostics tools
They even have mobile apps for tracking drag and lap times. Also check out their Instagram or hit the link below to see what's available
How are you sir good
So good to see you Scott Graham. I brought my 1967 Plymouth Barracuda down here
Tell us where you're from Scott really quick like your organization. I started la SD Motorsports 25 years ago
It was an outreach program for youth stay out of drugs gangs
anti-street racing
You're a 31 year veteran of the so thank you for your service. Thank you everything you've done
But we're here to talk about this thing and majority door slammer steel-bodied 67
So this is a one-off carbon fiber hood, yeah
For who does what are we looking at? This is a factory 71 iron block
440 with Edelbrock intake heads got Ross pistons
Scout rods and crank in it. It's got a nitrous supply
Nitrous system on it BJ's race cars who did a lot of work for me made these two headers because we needed ground clearance
But we wanted long tube
Don't point it out and what's crazy is this is the mild motor
Yeah, this is the back. This is the show motor
Do you add it you had a hotter motor the 440 that was punched out to like 13 and a half to one compression?
Yes, that one needs a little bit of work right now. Okay, so we put the backup motor in it's a 13 to 1
Motor also, it's got ISKI cams and you know roller lifters and all that kind of stuff in it
And we have a 200 shot on it for today. This is carburetor. It's a denominator
Yeah, you guys were talking about all kinds of stuff that I don't understand
This is a dominator, but it's got a wood spacer
I know before the days of finelic you had wood to keep that carburetor clean
What does this car weigh this car weighs
3010 pounds with me in it and this was factory before this was all factory
But I had a little accident exactly a little accident and I had to replace it with fiberglass
What horsepower is this thing made it put 635 to the rear wheels?
What's your best ET on this with this combination 9 flat? What are you running for a trans?
It's a pro trans torque flight 3-speed and you got some big meats out back. Yeah
Just a little bit bigger than his car. These are 29 10 5
29 10 5 and my favorite part about this real setup. They're BBS
They are very rare, yeah, there's about eight of sets of these in the United States and I have three sets of them
Oh my
It's a factory dash I took the factory radio out the right just to save some weight
So, what's the what's you have an AEM dash but it's not it's data acquisition. So are you on the bottle today?
It depends how the surface is out here
I'm hoping to be because man listen to the the Integra over there. That sounds pretty mean
That's a good racing. So you got options generally
We start from a dig if we want to negotiate a roll later on you can there's 500 foot a thousand and fifteen hundred
So you guys could negotiate whatever you want. It's hand drop. So it could be John
Definitely gonna do a thousand foot
Kind of just gonna do the heads-up race first
Kind of got to feel each other out see where we are
So I'm a OG front-wheel drive nerd and 1,100 horsepower and like 2,400 pounds
I'm gonna go with Integra look man. You know me. I'm a JDM boy at heart and this thing it revs out
It's got a turbo for me Integra time. I've never seen either one of these cars
I don't know any specs on them, but I'm just gonna stick with my v8 roots and go v8 for now
I don't know like I'm not really a Honda guy, but I got it
I think I gotta give it to the Honda this time
I'm gonna go on traction alone thinking that rear-wheel drive is gonna hook better than front-wheel drive
I think the cop cars got it
I just want to make sure that Sergeant Scott Graham still doesn't have access to the LASD database because if so
I'm so rooting for him. But if not, I got to go with my Integra
Dude you know when this thing gets on any leg those horses are gonna creep right off. It's gonna be a bad time
I don't have shoes on I don't
You crazy son of a bitch you did that thing is gripped
Got the lights on
That charger is all over the place.
By the way, that wasn't 600 horsepower.
That was nowhere close to 600 horsepower.
I was like, yo, he gave us a different number last time.
Yup.
He lies.
Old age and treachery will always win out.
So that looked like a good launch on both sides.
Man, that Cuda dug.
But like about a 500 foot mark, they had some kind of issue.
So we're going to find out what's going on.
Was there something on the midway through at the top end, you started to park up?
It just fell out of it on its own, so I just kind of let out of it and coasted.
You coasted a little more?
A little bit.
We were usually trying to run it at about 140, and the temperature was still right in
barely 100.
So it wasn't two-step.
And you'll hear the two-step, it'll pop a lot more.
It wasn't wanting to pop.
We just talked to Skyle.
We've negotiated that I'm going to get the hit in this next pass.
All right, so we're going to line them up again.
It's going to be Cuda versus Integra.
Cuda goes off of Integra's hit.
All right, so we're going to line them up again.
Cuda by three cars.
Damn.
Yo, but I thought the Cuda was going to dig on them every time, but that Integra launches,
man.
Bad boys, bad boys.
Do you know how we know you used to be a street racer?
Yeah.
Because you're a bullshitter.
That does not make 600 horsepower.
What?
No chance.
He didn't say which run it made the 600 on.
It made 600 in 1994.
I have the right to remain silent.
You know how to launch a car, man.
Dude, I got to say, this thing comes out of the hole like crazy.
Thank you.
We got a better tune up in it, but we're having issues.
You can come around and see here.
Oh, no.
Man, you didn't play by an O-ring.
You helped it down.
Thanks, man.
Thanks.
I tried, man.
I wish we got the W, but hey.
Assume the position.
It's all too much.
Get over here.
Can we talk about this tire pressure up front real quick?
Yo, I told you, it's extreme.
You asked what pressure it is.
That's atmosphere.
Probably less, actually.
