Dead Acura
There'* a hot little Acura in town that has tried to get me to race him before. Every time he has challenged me I've had my wife and son in the car so I drove cautiously.
...not today...
My wife saw him and said "go for it". I had the tank full, two passengers, all the stuff you carry to take care of an 18 month old, and the stock pulley size on the supercharger. I decided to try anyway. We took off at the green, he slipped back from the start to about the 1/8 mile point. From there he hung with me but a full car length back.

Good kill man .. even with the weight disadvantage, nothing beats raw power.. well.. except the wife LOL.. I have only seen one Integra that deserves recognition.. buddy did a lot of work to it.. 13.6 in 1/4 mile.. supercharged Type R. Stock looking..
which pulley do you use other than the stock ?? Have you went lower than 3.4 before? and what happened...
Good kill again...

So what would you recommend running for a basically stock l67 for the pulley size?? My Bonnie is also going to be a regular get me around car. Could I run the 3.0'* without any adverse effect for daily commuting ??

I guess I'll go with the 3.4 pulley then... How do I drain the */C oil?? I know there'* the bolt on the top front that you use for checking and filling up the oil, but is there a drain bolt, or do I have to syphane the oil out? I also heard to use 5w30 Mobil 1 synthetic as */C oil ( since it'* cheaper and does the same job ).

If you find you need to change the SC oil anyway here'* an easy fix. Go to the closest animal vet. Buy a huge horse syringe then stop by a hardware store and buy some clear plastic hose to fit on the end of the syringe. Remove the plug you mentioned and suck out the oil.
