Some people want a race car, while others are looking for the satisfaction of driving their race car down to the local Starbucks for a latte. Rob from Vraceworks def has both, as his Si makes over 500hp with full interior, air conditioning, and not to mention being on 93 octane. Streetcar lovers eat your heart out.

What do you get when you take a fully built b18c to DRT? 538hp&362tq to the tires. That is a shitload of fun in those Password Recaros that Rob has in the coupe!

670hp/485tq @29psi on Q16…

Just recently, Mister Hobbs fired the car up again and had it re-tuned just in time to get some track times and more testing done. Testing and development are kind of right up this guys alley. He and Wil from Exospeed Racing came together to get the perfect fitment on a street wheel setup that is now seeming to root its way out to others. After months of test fitments, back and forth shipping, and picking the right tire, Antwaine finally found the perfect fitment possible for the “street car” that sits in his garage waiting for days without rain. But the second catch is that Mister Hobbs fights fires by day, and those 24hr shifts start to take away from building and driving time!

Hats off to Antwaine for the build, R&D, and putting the effort into trying something new and keeping it street for the street guys out there!

Here are a few more random pics:

Some shots of lining up the wheels and seeing how close things are.

the only civic with this custom Peak Boost manifold & downpipe made to use with a 60mm wastegate.

The manifold shot. I took this from Ken@Peak Boost. Check out the bling option on this! Bananas!

The rear wheels were made using a “skinny” face, along with a lip and barrel from one of the other Exospeed wheels available. this together has made the “street edition” available from Exospeed. These wheels are Double Forged multi-piece with interchangeable faces.  The possibilities are endless!

Here is a video of what Antwaine and Tony1 believe is the 515 pump gas pull. Yes, you can get it from this car on pump gas. No Q or C16 needed!

Shot outs to Clayton, Wil, and Antwaine for keeping me updated on the car and the status of it! Also, big shot outs to Rudy for the top image! I appreciate you letting me use it!
