Once the Borg Warner 67mm turbocharger was installed on the IPGparts.com True Street Civic the goal was simple....an 8 Second Pass. Heading up to the World Cup Finals in November of 2014 the team thought they had the combination to make it work but could only run a best of 9.03 @ 166mph during the event.

A Weldon Racing 2345 fuel pump was installed to alleviate that and back to the track...

The off season has been a busy time for the IPG crew as the All Motor CRX received a completely new engine.

We still had the stock block K20 engine from the CRX that had run 11.20 in the back of the shop so what better...

It has been a very busy first couple of weeks for the IPGparts.com Race Team as they attended the first 2 SCCA Majors events of the year at Homestead Speedway and Sebring Intl Speedway the past 2 weekends.
