but anyway, i noticed my cars running the fastest its ever ran..im at 40,000 miles..i ws thinkin maybe its fully broken in...

Rep Power: 0 its the colder air at night. makes a considerable difference, if you have really hot days like we have here in texas. Ofcourse good maintenance does make a difference, but that change is too gradual to feel all of a sudden. But hey, as long as you are satisfied, good luck

Rep Power: 380 From talking with my friend who has ran many civics for autocross, Including a CSP preped CRX. he said that the Dseries really doesnt make alot of power untill you wear them in. He said any of the D engines he built for racing didnt do too well untill they had about 30,000 miles on them.

Rep Power: 0 haha nice try, but no its not faster it just seems that way. i go out on late night drives sometimes too and it does seem faster but ive tested it and its not. u just have more open road and nothing to compare it to other then stationary objects.

but, yeah, it's probably not going that fast. Maybe it's just broken in like you said, 40k sounds just about right for most engines.
