Still don't believe you will hit 143 in a Civic....don't care which model you have. If it is stock, no way! To remove this ad, register today for free or log in if already registered!

A stock Civic...EX...Si...SiR...does not make enough horsepower to go 135...too much drag. I don't care what pics you wanna try to post--have me ride along wit ya and prove it. I have had 3 different Civic EXs (new ones) and none of them would do over 125.

My EX 5speed went 130 ish once, but if you guys go back to the begining of this thread, You'll see it's been agreed on that the speedos aren't that accurate at that high of speeds. And also, Honda is known to have some "strong runners." Or rather some of their engines may have more than 127 hp (crank) while others have only 127 or maybe even less. Not every engine and speedo and speed sensing unit is exactly the same. SO if you want to prove these high speeds, post a radar picture, or the ticket that came with it.

doesn't matter. if you haven't removed the speed governor, you'll never get above 130-ish.

and by not stock, you mean your intake and exhaust?
