I just checked the results page here:

Looks like I placed 8th in round 2 and currently 4th in the N1 Class standings. We had nearly 40 competitors in N1 at round 2! Crazy!

Yooo me and @Speedy28k are neck and neck that’s tight!

Out of 40 cars, we were all pretty high up in the rankings compared to some other really well prepped cars. We holding it down for the TSX clique!

Too bad about your Weds wheel. Any idea what caused it?

Hopefully i can join you guys towards the end of the year or when the temps start going down again after summer.

Hell yeah! I plan to track hard at the end of the year after some changes over the summer

Not sure. I'd imagine the heating up and cooling down combined with jumping off curbs at the track. I've had them for over four years and they've seen a lot of track time. Hoping to get some new wheels this summer.

We'll be out there for sure!

I see you run stock air box. Last g&g video on k24 shows how important is velocity stack on intake and keeping intake short with least amounts of elbows. So i designed this one for stock air box for 3d printing.
Air is channeled from front of the bumper to a hole just under the intake, where resonator connection elbow used to be ,straight to the v. Stack.
Dont know whats your exact setup but this might be useful.
Just it is 32mm instead of 60 mm length for the 78mm part and it fits like its factory part.
Its on my cl9 box.

I'm using the CTE air box from HeelToe which is very similar to what you came up with. It replaces the factory lower resonator with a scoop that pulls cold air from behind the bumper.

Kowalski,
Super cool 3d printing parts! Why did you decide not to place the velocity stack a few inches down under the tray so it has access to cooler air?

 

[evil804]

I will have to cut down my velocity stack arm and try that! No more anxiety about puddles either!

Sorry we hijacked your thread Tony. Maybe if you posted more content regularly this wouldn't have happened.

Any updates from recent track events? Some of us are old school and don't follow IG or FB.

So I moved to Austin, TX a few months ago and my TSX is still in California. No updates to post but once I get it back to Texas I'll make some updates. Miss driving this thing.

 

[Brock]

Oh man, I was hoping to meet up at VTEC club or some other event. I'm in Phoenix now.

We missed the good Buttonwillow VTEC Club event last friday on the 3rd. You're not too far from Chuckwalla or Spring Mountain though.

 

[Brock]

Yeah, I was thinking the Chuckwalla event. About 2.5 hours drive for me.

Update:

I'm back in California and with the TSX again. I drove it around for a couple of days when I got back before realizing the flex pipe I had added to my exhaust broke. So I've detuned the car a bit for street use and put the stock header and exhaust back on the car.

I was able to scoop up a Mugen rearview mirror cover in Milano Red. Didn't need it but I think it's a cool piece.

More updates coming soon.

 

[Brock]

Your TSX deserves a much nicer exhaust system.

 

[Brock]

How are you liking Austin so far?

 

[TireGuyTSX]

I love this car. Are you going to keep the stock exhaust stuff on the car for good? If not, have you put any thought into what you'd get next?
