This is truly impressive...

Wow, I am really impressed with the Seventh Generation Civic.

Where do I start?

Maybe with my 15.8, couldn't believe my 127 Horsepower Civic pulled it off. That's just a few milli-seconds behind the Nissan Sentra Spec V SE-R. Sweet.

And what's this talk of turbos?
Beautiful, I think there are about 3-4 turbos being built right now for our cars...and everyone's pitching in with thoughts about the fuel management system. Sweet.

RSX Type S engine swap? Sure, why not. It'll happen soon guys, just wait until someone finds out how.

Ummm, 180 Horsepower Naturally aspiriated? From our engines? The D17A2? Whoa, thanks Gude.

I love it. So tommorow, me...along with your help will begin on a new project...let's find out the optimal shift points for our Civic's.

Tell you how tommorow. Love ya.

Yea, pobviously someone else tried to own me...but no.

Maybe you don't understand "a few milli-seconds". I didn't say our car is just as fast.

Hey I guess if Nissan told you the Sentra Had 180 HP you'd believe that too.

It's only putting a little bit more horsepower(about 30) at the wheels then our cars.

It also has a lower redline, and bigger wheels. Not as aerodynamic as our car either...6-speed? Wow, that must be a lot better for drag racing...idiot.

Hey JoeB16, ever run your car stock at the quarter mile? I doubt you did, but would you mind sharing some times?

I'm wondering what your project is since you mentioned:
