Nation: Imitora
Team Name: Tale Beach Automotive
Team Member Names: John Oliver (Driver), Amy Powel (Navigator)
Car Type: 2003 Integra Type R
Expireince: None profesional between the two, however, both are common at Tale Beach street races, and Amy, John's fiancé has been known to venture north to the Northampton street sceene. John is the owner of Tale Beach Automotive, the main competitor to Northampton Import Automotive Performance Specialties. John hopes this win will help compitition between him and Robert Fortier's Northampton Import Automotive Performance Specialties.

The Car:
The car is a 2003 Acura Integra Type R. It recieved a face lift with a full Mugen body kit, and a long list of performance upgrades. The 2.0 Liter I4 has been on the recieving end of forced induction in the form of a full GReddy Turbo kit, with intake, front mount intercooler and large diameter piping, Type S BOV, and a GReddy Profec B turbo timer.. The exhaust was replaced with a DC Motorsports Exhaust and short shift kit, and the ever obligatory Hondata ECU reflash. Large fuel injectors and a high pressure pump keep the engine full of gas, and a full TIEN suspension kit keeps the car on the ground. A full Sparco interior has made it a bit more comfortable, yet lighter, ride. The Integra is sure to be a bit of compitition to the NIAR EVO ME (http://www.drkside.com/pics/specr/dc5mugen/rsx_01.jpg)
