his is bone stock
my friend in his 07 civic SI jumped him by a car from a 40 then got spanked
but when i race that civic from a 40 i make him look like he is in park
so i guess theres just one way to find out
just wanted to get some feedback from you guys.
figured if you said i was gonna get spanked i would just save my gas

That car was not stock.


OP he should take you.

This should be moved to the street/strip section.

The GT's come with LT76's. LT76's are very similar to LS2's but they have displacement on demand and make a good bit less power.

The GXP's come with LS3's.
