I Won!!!!!

This week my friends brother came home from Texas for the holidays, he's in the army. Anyway he has a 2001 civic lx coupe 5spd. As soon as he seen that my 02 ex is stick shift he started to show off his stuff. He's got dc short shifter, aem cai, aem pulley, cam gear, header, and full custom exhaust, and progress springs. The exhaust pipe is 3 inch from the header to the muffler. He wanted to race me. He felt very confident that he can take my stock ex. I was racing with a passanger and he was by himself. In first gear I took him off the line by about 1/2 a car. second gear he kept up and i pulled third to about 80, i had him by 1 1/2. Talk sh** now B***!!!!!!!!!!

Good Kill, Good story............but never race with a passenger, they slow you down and how bad would you feel if you got in an accident and they died.

He has all that in his car and still did nothing? I suppose in this case it would be the driver

AR will become famous soon enough
its a shame to see a car with such good mods with such a bad driver.
at least save yourself from making you look like an ***, and go out and learn how to drive a real car with 3 pedals.

MangoEX should not be trusted
uhm... both cars were 5 spd and maybe both were good drivers... afterall the EX has12 more horses... do you guys think that the guy with the LX got 12 horsepower from those above mentioned mods? According to AK and Flyby, he should of had somewhere around 5 HP with those mods... [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] Seriously though what do you guys think?

Mango, you obviously know nothing about our cars. LX's can beat EX's all day long. THe EX is heavier than the LX and this is one of the reasons. Just like the EX can beat the new supposedly awsome Si. In the end it all comes down to the driver. Many LX's and even DX's have beaten EX's.

The EX has 12 more horses at the flywheel moron. You actually think our cars put out that much? An EX runs right at about 100 - 102 whp. While the LX runs 98-100 whp. So add 5 whp to that with his mods. The LX should have won. But 66% of racing still comes down to the driver, the lauch, the weather conditions.

Maybe you should learn about our cars before you come to the plate and try to talk with the big boys about them.

Indeed. Well said Fly.
You should shut your mouth and just READ. DO NOT REPLY

You are the reason why members are not coming back... posting useless retarded comments.

and btw, a few months back someone had posted dynos of EX vs LX. I believe it was +1whp difference for the EX...so much for VTEC on our SOHC engines. (do an "archived" search. it's there)

And tell me where did the motherfu.ck I say that the EX's 12 more horsepower was NOT at the flywheel? Obviously you guys have nothing better to do than to BIT.CH all day long. Get a life.

Edit: I've reported you both to the moderators. I come to this particular thread with a legitamate question, and you two can't get off my sack, so here you go.
