There is a Honda Civic Ex Turbo around school that I have raced couple of months ago on the highway and I burned him pretty bad. I had a chance to race him again today and ended up with the same result, this time off the line.

After the race I talked with him for a minute. He said he was only running 8 pounds of boost for the reason of it being a everyday transportation. All I know is he needs more boost if he wants to hang.

I have no idea what my 0-60 is. Accroding to G-tech though, my best was 6.35 which I doubt is very accurate. Probably a tad slower than that. As for racing the Civic again, hmmm...anytime, anywhere

nice

a friend of mine has a turbo 93 SI (thats SOHC VTEC, not DOHC VTEC like the new SI). we were road racing on a real road course on monday, i ran him down both times i was on the track with him... i havent ridden in his car yet. He has the GReddy turbo kit and the HUGE Type 24 front mount intercooler... i think the spin he had on the first lap of the first heat shook him up a bit though, so he may not have been going quite as ***** out as i was.

Nice kill!
The turbo Honda guys get pretty upset when they lose to a family car
Was at my friend's shop the other day and overheard this guy with a turbo SI saying he beat a S2000 and he is only running 8 lbs. How fast are those things anyway? ( SI w/ turbo and S2000 )

My friend drives a EX civic running 12 lbs of boost. I hate to admit, but it's fast. And, my car is basically stock, so there's nothing I can do against him. Once that thing hits VTech, it's curtains. I hate em'.
