I ran my car last night and I ran a 16.46 on stock wheels (my Lx 5 sp) and my friend ran his 2k1 and his best was 17.57 (his Ex Automatic). He has 17" focals he ran on and also has an AEM SRI. I have a custom catback with 2.25 pipe and I had my stock air box in(intake didnt fit) POS OBX intake! And I also had my stock wheels on.Not bad

I wonder what an LX can score in the 1/4 mile? The best time that is... Yours is pretty good. I think a 16 might be possible.

I want at least 15.5 and then I'll be satisfied. It's asking alot but thats respectable for LX without nos or turbo . just basic mods.

Hmmm our car is still slow...but I guess thats what you get without VTEC....How much faster is the EX/Si than the LX-G????

uhm... serisously dude. VTEC isnt gods gift to cars. It really doesnt do all that much. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/IMG]

Look at the post! my friends VTEC EX ran SLOWER by a whole second! Vtec isn't all that. Proven!

I think you need to look at the post again, you said he had an auto EX, whoope freaking doo. Autos are slow.

My LX got a 16.9 a couple of weeks ago[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]

Like I said EX 127hp w/AEM SRI vs. LX 117hp w/custom cat-back
EX 17.57
LX 16.46

My whole point was that the EX is an auto so there fore it is going to have a slower time.

Yes, I agree. Don't compare an AUTO aganst a Manual. The auto trans also adds more weight. The ex doesn't have a whole lot more hp to begin with.

I know but he always talks $hit to me about his "EX" and it drives me crazy. So it felt pretty good to beat him.

dude. his ex is an AUTOMATIC. can you say it with me? A-U-T-O

cant wait until march 23-24! Thats when our local track has its first racing!

I assume you guys are expressing your dissatisfaction at Civic automatics ONLY, as we all know that a properly
built automatic will get you to the end of that drag strip faster than a manual.....

We know this, right? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

AUTO SUX!!!!

Oh ok, we are straight now. Always good to shut a good friends mouth. I bet he has been flaming you about how his is faster because it's an 'ex' and has those mods.
