Dont get too cocky though Ive met sleepers before. I learned the hard way from a little toyota with messed up paint and a autozone spoiler + the typical fart muffler. I lost by7 cars and had the deer in the headlights look when he flew by.So I talked to the guy at the next light as it turns out he had alot of money in it. lol

k20 is one hell of an engine for a N/A four banger197(?) crank HP for a 4 banger vs 260 to our 8......pretty impressive.....The only thing is, the new civics are a lot heavier than the old hatches so they arent that quick. I however met a kid with a 92 DX civic hatch....k20 swap + light car = buh bye

just be careful man...a new SI with just an intake/header/exhaust can smack around some mild bolt-on 99-04 GT's so just watch yourself.....

I just want to know who told all these civic owners that their cars were racers instead of economical commuters, I wish they would all just leave me tha f*** alone.
The base Civic is a commuter. The SI is pretty quick. They are only 2600lbs and have 200hp.

i met a guy with an 07 SI and this thing was built very nicely. he had it turbocharged and he was pushing 340ish to the wheels. had the bottom end forged and everything. the best thing was he did not have a fart can! lol. he did however have the crappy paint job with jap writing all over. but it was an impressive car.
