There is a guy up here who owns a company called Hypertech runs a supercharged CTR, last time on the 1/4 mile he ran a 12.3 if I recall

At the end of the day, torque backs up power, there is no point havin 400bhp when you have 100lbft is there... you'd have to be skinny with no mates and drive it with no clothes on and no trim at all in there.
We all know spaxo westcoasts are faster anyway.
Sorry mate but you obviously don't understand the relationship between torque and power. You can't have a 400bhp car with 100lbft.

Hi there all - the car in the pictures is mine 
Thanks for all the kind comment and as for the bad ones 
Just to clear up some of the stuff posted on this topic. The only Civic to run in the 12 sec bracket at Crail is mine. Duncan @ Hypertec is running slightly lower power to mine so no way a 12.3sec pass is possible. I think he is more into the track stuff anyway and I don’t know if he has ever done the ¼ mile.
Just to comment on my 'poor' times for the power - what sort of times to you expect from a 305hp fwd car? When you saw me at Crail no gas was used. Most fwd cars with this power would be running these times unless of course they are mega light - my car weighs about 1150kg.
I have spent a small fortune on my car but no more than the next person with a 350 odd brake fwd car...... Unfortunately I do not have money to burn - if only!!
Also if anyone goes up to Crail in Scotland - I will happily give anyone a wee blast up the strip when the passengers seat is in. Also if anyone fancies their chances... just need to ask.
Cheers
Scott

You have to put alot of money in to get over 300 BHP mate
Awesome GTI's Audi TT is runnning stage 2 with intercoolers etc and thats only 295 mate
over 300 your looking at bigger turbo's, conrods, intercoolers etc - do the maths it will be over 2K
