if you know how to drive it's possible w/ no traction issues. But I think it'll be a low 15 second car, high 14's if your lucky.

I ran a 15.194 with a 75 shot. I had my 18's on, along with my spare tire and stereo system.

I was running an intake, headers, and pulleys. I had a stock exhaust system. I had plug wires too, but I don't think that had much to do with it.

I also sprayed with my Venom400 on. The car definately pulled better with it on. I was running a 55 shot at the time. The venom was out when I switched up to the 75. People have talked about the Venom advancing the timing of the car. The ECU retards/advances the timing anyway. What more will the venom do?? I've sprayed a whole lot with the Venom and never had a problem.

Venom is a unit that changes your timing a little, but i think it is mainly for changing the fuel ration and the vtec engagement. it is preset when bought so no need to change it just plug and play if im right. it is a good mod for those who do not want to fork out the extra $$$ for a VAFC controler but they are nice and work good

CiLver2.3 has one for sale, hit him up for it

I highly recommend saving your money and spending it on some other performance mods. I had a Venom on my 3.0 (BTW Venom 400 for the 2.2/2.3 won't work on the 3.0) for over a year, and although I could tell a difference with it turned on, it had no bearing on my ETs at the track. I actually had better ETs with the Venom OFF!!!!!

You cannot custom set the Venom 400 to engage VTEC where you want it. It comes pre-set.

His run was before the h22a.

I don't think he's been to the track with the 'lude engine yet.

yes the throttle body spacer works i especially noticed it when the motor hit VTEC

the venom 400 works awesome if u are running ur car from the time that u crank it up IF U BABY IT AND THEN TRY TO RUN IT WONT WORK AS WELL AS IF U WERE RUNNING IT FROM THE GET GO but it runs awesome if u are CONSISTENTELY running it hard
