    Got it, installed it in about a hour, including a run to kragen for a 1/2 drive extension, lowered 0-60 time by .8 of a second to 7.2 sec with CAI/Exhaust, im happy, get it guys!! Comes with the belt and pulley, that's all you need.

    how did u figure those specs? did u go to the track or is that whats on the label?? .8 is alot to shave off going 0-60 even wit intake n exhaust...(going .8 less in 0-60 is not the same as going .8 less in a quarter mile wich seems more reasonable wit ur specs) just curious...congrats on being the first though on a 9g :-P
    uhhhh...... Whats a 9g???

    I agree.

    I dont see how a few ounces of weight saved you almost 1 second...

    i can kinda see it going the when going the distance... the stock is about 2-3 lbs with the pulleys where as the racing pulley is a couple ounces
    uhhhh...... Whats a 9g???

    Intake + Exhaust + Pulley = 10 WHP or so I'd guess, then that's feasible.

    You guy's need to do a bit more research on the 2.4L MIVEC engine, pulley alone is 6-7 whp, and 10ft lbs. of torque. Go look at the dyno sheets RRE has put together on this pulley.

    Stop watch, same place I run every time I do a mod on my car, with the exact same person in my car doing the timing, I also do multiple runs to make sure it's consistent, if you guy's want to doubt me that's fine. I don't post bullshit.

    Oh and also, if you guy's want to see me racing a Matrix XRS with CAI/Exhaust and ECU that has been dyno tuned to 190whp with 130whp that weighs 2805 with it's driver i'll shoot a vid next time I get a chance. Im pretty sure you guy's would be very impressed with how well I keep up with him to 60mph 8)

    did u mean 190 hp wit 130 whp? as for the mods.... there are many of us four bangers with the exact same mods as you who only see at MOST 10 hp wit these mods... soo most of us kinda doubt the 7 hp gains u mentioned...
    uhhhh...... Whats a 9g???

    No.. 190 whp, 130 ft lbs torque, yeah im sure i'll have a harder time convincing older gen galant owners, the MIVEC engine is much more sophisticated and superior. It's ok, im only posting this info for the 9G owners.


    http://www.roadracemotorsports.com/images/dynosm.jpg keep in mind, this is on a mustang dyno, with a dynojet the numbers would be higher, and also be sure to look at the temperature. I'll be back with some footage for the doubters.

    Nice, I believe you.

    Part Added to Official Aftermarket Sticky... is there anything we should know about, was it a direct bolt on?

    Direct bolt on, it seriouslly does not take much effort at all, the hardest part is taking off the splash guard, there is a bolt all the way up in the engine bay that took me about 5min to get out. But other than that, very easy mod, just make sure you route the belt properly. Goodluck to anyone who buys the pulley, it's worth it! :D

    edit: btw im about to head to infineon raceway with some friends to get timed, i'll have videos/pics tonight.

    Back from the track.. lowest time I ran was a 17sec flat 1/4.... 1 reason though, 4 spd automatic. The 9G's transmission has weird gear ratios, a 3rd gear that goes from 65 to 110.... still ran a newer prelude type-sh though, he timed at 17.5, probably another automatic, and got close to a Type-R Integra that didn't know how to drive, he ran a 16.6

    Time slip scans soon to come with a video or 2...

    hmmmm...ur 0-60 doesnt match ur quarter mile time. if u say ur going 0-60 in 7.2 u should be around mid 15's to low 15's ... which means ur keeping up wit the v6 9g...stock 9g i4's i believe are mid 17's... so u made a nice improvement at least... didnt mean to be a dick, it just bugs me when i hear wrong info....

    btw no way in hell ur gonna get 190 whp from an xrs with everyday bolt ons, that means what its running what 230-40hp??? and u beat him...ur friends car probably has 190hp not 190whp. the ecu is not gonna give 30 something hp unless u have serious mods to back it up...
    uhhhh...... Whats a 9g???

    Yeah I know a 7.2sec 0-60 should have a mid 15sec 1/4 time but you need to think about the gearing on my car, it's a 4spd automatic, do you know how long the 3rd gear on my car is? it goes from 65 to 110mph, RRM timed a stock 5spd ralliart at 15.9 in the 1/4, same engine as the 9G, just 300lbs lighter. Think about it, my 60ft time is VERY good, 2.42seconds, a M series BMW that ran a 14.5 had a 60ft time of 2.55seconds. Fact is, after 2nd gear, my car is pretty gutless, and from the video of me racing the XRS, you will noticed that after 2nd gear, I can't keep up. Before you say my 0-60 time is bullshit, you need to factor in my transmission and gear ratios. I'll ask him for his dyno sheet next time I see him, and I didn't say I beat a 190whp XRS, just kept up with him ;-)


    edit: also, it is not typical to see 25-30whp from a reflash + basic mods like intake/exhaust, the XRS usually dynos about 155-160 to the wheels stock, again you need to do more research, look at RRM's dyno sheets from axleback/cai/piggyback ecu for the ralliart, 160/160 wheel figures with 3 mods. Not to mention the XRS shares the same motor as a Celica GT-S if you didn't know, that motor reacts very well to basic mods with the addition of a better fuel map/tune. VVTL-I is no joke

    edit 2: 1 more thing heh, my friend with a 2006 civic sedan ex automatic, lowest he timed was 17.5, but he traps higher than me at 79mph compared to my 78, even though I kill him by 4-5 car lengths in a race, why? 5spd automatic, better 3rd gear curve.

    The 'official' ratings of our cars are screwed up...they rated our 9G's at a 15.6/15.7 and I ran a 15.3 on a 100 degree weather day with humidity out the ass (Corrected it came out to a 14.9 using NHRA Calculator, but I don't race NHRA it just basically let's you know what your car CAN run if you do it in good conditions).

    I'm going back to the track in the winter time so I can break it into 14's..

    Did you flat foot it or stall it out? I got the best time with stalling it out, leaving traction control on and manually shifting it at red line with the sportronic...

    What do you mean by stalling it out? I don't have the option of turning traction control on/off, my car doesn't have it. I did manually shift at redline with the gear selector though, for some weird reason, I don't think my car performs the best when I just stomp the accelerator peddle to the floor, which I was doing. I've found that it accelerates better when I gradually press the accelerator peddle down with the RPM's as they increase.
