4 bangers dont respond to mods like our cars do. so to say it has exhaust really isnt sayting much.


2006 Honda Civic SI 15.1

thats about what you are running stcok. maybe 14.9 if your a good driver.
you want to rethink the statement knowing it has the same number of valves as your V-8?

drivers race

You definatly should be able to get him from a dig.Its hard to get a good launch with a front wheel drive car,even harder when you have a powerband as narrow as a Si,unless your good its either too much tire spin or not enough and it bogs.From a roll you probably could get him,but it will be close.

I can see him asking the outcome on this one . It's very close. There's nothing worse than a V8 muscle car losing to a Civic. If you win post the results. If you lose pretend it never took place. lol

[sm=icon_cheers.gif] You read my mind on that one C6...Although it would be good for you to post the outcome either way so other Stang owners(with your model) know what to expect...

dude an exhaust on a honda means a 1" downpipe into a 15" folgers coffee can

anything over 1.5" on a honda is overkill

dont the new ones make like 160hp? thats only like 130hp at the wheels

and posting a thread about how u think u will do just goes to show u are insecure about ur cars performance. the whole reason for owning a muscle car is because u know what it can do.. not what other cars can do to you...

like said above im sick of these "who would win" threads they are stupid. just race and THEN post the results.

4 cylinders now are dangerous with turbos and tuning. you can make serious power with half the engine and half the weight. And to ask an outcome of race with no money attached to it whats the point.. go hit the track and race. Why ask others, to scared to find out for yourself..... Its just a race.
