Is it SOHC vtec? If so, than I think that he would win pretty easily. Race him and let us know who wins.

i think it'd be pretty close actually. don't want you going into it feeling cocky cause you drive a stang.

I agree. It will be close, so don't be surprised if you lose. I've lost to VTEC Civics before.

It would also help if we knew what year your stang was? 94-98v6 or 99-04v6? Big difference.

I think the civic will win but just because of the turbo.

Most likely the turbo civic would beat any year mustang V6 with just intake and exhaust.

the average SOHC turbo with the right turbo sizing will easily run low low 14's. My buddy has a stock motor EX coupe with a RHB5 turbo on only 7psi & he runs right with my friend SRT-2 & my other friend I/E S2000... So I would guess it would prolly be fair game for a 99+GT. But some people oversize the turbo on these small engine & they dont move for crap

It also depends on the boost that he is running and of course the size of the turbo. Watch out.
