BEEYOND ENGINEERING'S T4/SFWD CIVIC
So after project 2 weeks Beeyond decided to build a T4/SFWD Civic to compete in the NHRA and NOPI events for the 2007 events. With 2006 ending Beeyond tested the Civic with asthonishing results. With a few gremlins here and there, it didn't stop them, but only fueled them to accomplish their goals. Finally when all was said and done the Civic lived up to it's standards. With only 529whp and 379lb-ft torque many didn't think it would do damage. With Beeyond's knowledge of EFI tuning they turned 529whp in a more usuable RPM ranges where the Civic needed it most. High peak horsepower numbers can be deceiving and can sometimes yield slower timeslips, but properly tuned it can be deadly quick. Well anyhow, first track visit yielded a best of 10.22@143mph and a 10.25@146mph respectfully with continous mid 10sec passes at over 140mph+. Second visit only got better!!! Only 2 runs were possible since the track was so jam-packed. First run of the day brought in a 10.14@143mph. With slightly better driving Bee finally turned in a best of 10.0@145mph. The car has so much more in it. Boost levels were datalogged at a maximum of only 25psi and dropped to 23-24psi as engine rpms increased to 9.4Krpms where shift points were set. The Civic information are listed below. The setup is plain and simple, but done with care, precision and professionalism. For 2007, Beeyond plans to have the Civic in full boost mode(35psi) with a parachute, bigger turbo, and full race suspension. Consistant mid-high 9second will be the ultimate goal.
