I was trying to keep it under 85. I bypassed Washington. I heard nothing but horror stories about the traffic. I left NJ during the day so I hit traffic.

Just giving an update to my code P0200:
Turned out to be a broken injector wire on #1 cylinder. Took me awhile to find it, as it broken right in the curve of the wire where it went into the plug.View attachment 223531 Didn't have time to look for another plug in the parts store, so I used a jumper wire.View attachment 223532
Of course I couldn't find my shrink wrap--yes I do have some--so I just taped it up really good. Took it for a test drive and it chirps 2nd gear again--NICE!! Runs like a champ again.
Mine can’t even chirp 1st :(

Really? I think I told a similar story about a guy in a civic. Sure ruined his day lol!
I was holding with him. Until I hit my governor :D when it gets tuned that’ll fix that problem. I’m hoping I can at least get a tune and LTs before the summer is over to give it that little bit of fun factor. Then I’ll be able to actually do a burnout without it being wet outside :rolleyes:

Also I learned for sure that you DON’T need a G80 to drift these big things and hold it. It’s just gotta be wet outside :D

Stock newer civic Si and a Honda C-HR :D
Also surprised a teenager in daddy’s Lexus. It was wet tho and it was from a stoplight so when the needle on the tach got past 5 I started to think I should let off a bit and let it grip. I was running with him at about 85 the whole way home :D
