he has more mods than you listed there.
besides, even with what you listed there, you call that a "few" mods? lol. weight reduction, motor mounts, i/h/e, etc..... thats far from stock.

The SI should win with a good driver and proper tuning against your average 7thgen with I/h/E, but it's not always the case. 
Good kill. On the street you never know what could happen.
Dizzle when are you gonna let me know where you are from so maybe we can set something up? You talk **** but you avoid my question. Your missing the point that my car weighs 400lbs less then the avg Ex and I have no power steering and a crank pulley which most people don't, plus I run on DR's or my forged 17's(lighter and less rotational inertia than stock EX wheels).

I've raced a 00 Si with i/h/e and lost. I only raced him from a roll and he actually didn't pull to hard on me until 3rd gear. I was very surprised. LOL i actually did hang in 2nd gear (i maybe lost a bumper or so). But once i shifted to 3rd it was all over.

DuuuuDe!!! The same thing happened with me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait til the new Need for Speed comes out, though!!!

Where exactly did you get this weight loss of 200 lbs?
I'd say it shaved .2-.4 tenths and yes a flywheel would be nice, high 14's all day NA. In do time.
Check my profile on the weight loss. There's a link.

Rep Power: 0 Ok first of all how would you hear if he did miss 2nd??? I don't know about you, but the only thing that I can hear when racing is the sound of my exhaust. Second I just test drove a 00 Si for a friend (compleatly stock) and I really think that my car may be a bit faster. However if that car had my mods I would expect it to win. As far as a EX breaking 15 sec, if it COULD happen I would say that I should be able to come close this summer when I go to the track (pulling out the seats, and running DRs). If I can't do it which I really doubt that I can I will just give the keys to redline and let him do it. If he can run a 15.1 in a DX I would say that he could break 15 in a EX with more mods that is lightened as well.

Rep Power: 0 i could hear if he missed second gear because he has the loudest exhaust ive ever heard. he just got pulled over 2 days for it. thats how i know he didnt miss second because their was no long interval inbetween shifting
