Same as Playaz, but my car, her sweet spot is in the back seat. At least I know the rear suspension is good.


Oh wait, yeah right, between 3800 and 5800 rpms

Just all around. My car pulls constant but it also depends on how im driving, i can make it pull when ever i want. the only time it starts to slow down is right before it redlines.

Well this is useless... because you're just verifying Honda's numbers. Max torque at 4800, max HP at 6300 (EX numbers, LX/DX at 4500/6100)... the car's gonna pull the hardest between those two.
