AJP Turbo Kit powers HART in Redline Time Attack
After Day 1 of the two-day Redline Time Attack competition at Virginia International Raceway this weekend, Honda of America Racing Team (HART) driver Bryan Johnson ran an overall 5th best time in the Unlimited Division out of nine cars.
Regrettably, Johnson is the only entrant in the Unlimited Front Wheel Drive subdivision, so he has no direct competition. However, he is faster than four out of the five Rear Wheel Drive cars.
In an earlier practice session, Johnson placed third overall in a field of 20 cars including both the Modified Division and Unlimited Division, beating out an All-Wheel Drive Subaru Imprezza WRX by a mere tenth of a second.
Bryan drives a white and red 2006 Honda Civic SI coupe with 464 hp, 346 ft-lb torque at 15 psi, powered by the AJP turbo kit and customized Hondata tuning. His goal is to make it through the race without blowing anything up. From the looks of it, he’s doing quite well.

Orlando, FL Customer Revels in AJP Turbo Kit Power
“This is power. Other turbo kits, they give you a little taste of power, but this is real power.”
Julio could barely contain his excitement as he felt 420 whp and 284 torque at his command. The cameraman next to him could barely contain his intestines, let alone his video equipment.
Down from Orlando, FL in his red and black 2007 Honda Civic SI coupe, Julio was testing the brand new AJP turbo kit installed in his car. Having done lots of research, he concluded that AJP was the place to go.
In addition to the kit, he bought the AJP 3″ exhaust and added the AEM Fuel/Ignition Controller to give him a few extra pounds of boost.

The AJP shop car had no problem making its presence felt in the middle of a packed parking lot and gas station. Somewhere in Hialeah Gardens, FL, is a place where hundreds of people congregate to show off their cars.
Oscar’s friend Sandor signaled Ron to go for it and for a few minutes, Ron revved it, generating a crowd around the car. It was the perfect advertisement for our Dyno Day.

AJP Shop Car Publicizes Dyno Day
The AJP shop car braved a crowded parking lot at 11pm in Hialeah Gardens, FL, just west of Hialeah, to generate interest in our dyno day this Saturday.
A gas station owner discovered a novel way to generate income by shutting down his station on Wednesday nights and allowing cars to congregate. The place was packed wall-to-wall with cars of all types. Lots of people milled around, checking out the latest cars. Audio systems shook the grounds from time to time.

Another AJP Turbo on a Fully-Built Motor
Oscar, the first owner of the AJP production turbo kit with a fully-built motor, did not have to wait long to have competition. Hot on his heels comes Sean, from Laurel, MD, who drove his black 2006 Honda Civic Si down from Maryland to build his motor and install the AJP turbo kit with the AEM FIC.
In mid-April 2008, Sean decided to check us out here at AJP. Having done his research, he was impressed with the power gains of the AJP turbo kit. Just sitting behind the wheel of the shop car and revving the motor gave him goosebumps. The test drive sealed it for him and he committed to bringing his car down for the build and installation.

AJP Turbo Customer Prefers AJP Over Disney World
Vy (pronounced Vee) had a big smile on his face after his ride in the AJP shop car. And for him, it was better than all of the Disney World rides.
He, his lovely wife and kids flew down from Springfield, MA to Florida for vacation. They spent several days in Orlando taking in the sights and sounds of Disney World. But Vy took a day trip down to visit us here at AJP to take in the sights and sounds of our shop car.
