what kind of integra?

and check out these stock 1/4 mile times...

1986 Toyota Supra 7.0 15.4
1988 Toyota Supra 7.9 16.0
1989 Toyota Supra Turbo 6.6 15.2

ive gotten the same numbers from many different websites... this explains alot, since i have a couple of bolt ons that would do such a thing.

I've seen those numbers as well, and they're a fluke. 86 and 88 would run the same times, not to mention the times were gathered from reviews during that period. Tires have come a loooooooooong way since then for starters.

Either the car was a poor example or it was driver error (or both).

+1 for beating a 7mgte but i couldn't believe it at the time either. He complained of boost leaks etc.... who knows
