I think HP wise there will be absolutely no difference..
its jsut the manual LX will probably have the better run at the 1/4 because of the full control of the car's gears.

Probably will be a little less due to some losses in the auto trans. It will also be somewhat slower to to taller final gearing.

OK. Now I have to decide which I like best, my UZI or my Civic. I'd have to sell the UZI to get enough money for the turbo.

Ohh okay... I kinda figured. Thanks for answerin my question bboysushi and BartKat.

Now about the turbo kit... SFpower, do you ship to Hawaii? How much will it cost to ship to 96818? I hope not too much extra.

just for reference, when we actually get on it hard, the car is at about 3500 - 4000 RPM in 4th gear and we pulled it up to 6500
