I don't understand what that link is..
It's a link to notify that user that he is being discussed in a thread. He is a guy with a lot of high hp fwd experience. I think he does salt flat racing in his 1000hp 4g63 fwd. Maybe pm him or something if you want some advice. He can no doubt point you in the right direction.
I I appreciate the help I truly do I have until October 25th to get my car done twin plate clutch LSD axles and tires everything else is done we will see who has the fastest front-wheel drive on that day I hope it's my DSMI already did. That's what that link was. He may not be visiting the site much right now. Check it out

Who said I'm using stock rims? I'm probably going volk,or H.R.E.Get these, it's the right diameter and they fit stock rims.

Why are you still on stock rims if you have such a big build everywhere else?
Hoosier and MY, doesn't guarantee them in 1/2 mile against blowouts..the 1/4mile is different than half mile tire abuse..im going with toyo R888..the 200mph Integra usesGet these, it's the right diameter and they fit stock rims.

You threw me off when you said you plan to go 145mph, that's a little slow for a highly modified 1/2 mile car. I went 173 when my DSM made around 750, so if you make around 650 in a FWD that'll put you around the 160+ MPH range. At those speeds it's important to have at least an OEM wing on the decklid and adjust the rake of the car so the nose is down slightly.Hoosier and MY, doesn't guarantee them in 1/2 mile against blowouts..the 1/4mile is different than half mile tire abuse..im going with toyo R888..the 200mph Integra uses

Pump gas is your limit and probably causing the knock and timing pull. Only way to eliminate is to turn timing down and or boost. And I believe the 2g knock sensor is different and won't work right. I think it works off different a frequency.
