i know this one all to well=).. i have an rs.. my boyfriend has an SI...
I have raced him with his mods against mine.. mine being aem cold air and exhaust.. his was short ram intake and exhaust. i would beat him no problem..at the low end..but when his high end kicked in with the v-tec.. he would pass me.. not by much..but nevertheless.. i would lose.. now he has a vortech supercharger with upgraded fuel... clutch..etc.. now of course with the same mods i had before he beats me hands down...so now i'm doing my turbo setup with a to4e=).. i'm hoping to be able to rip him a new one now=)..
i know some hondas are just talk..and others are fast.. and its so hard to differentiate between the two=).. we just have to race and see.. like posted before.. it also comes down to the driver and how well they can menover their car... i just know that i have to beat him when my car is done!.. and its nice that he wants me to be able to beat him.. how many boyfriends want that..haha.. i'lllet ya all know how it goes when my cars all done=)
by the way.. the SI's can run 15s if they can get traction.. my boys SI just last year ran a 15.7 with his supercharger..but crossed at 102.. figure that out..(no traction) and he can beat my friends turbo rx-7 by 2-3 cars=).. all i'm sayin is be carful when u race a honda..u never know what they have..lol
