Need opinion?

Will a civ cpe w k20 swap w/turbo produce enough hp and torque to beat stock supercars in race?

(ferrari 360 spyder, merc 600e, stock vipers, and other fast as* sh*t)

The reason I am asking is iam tired of rich b*tches trying to race a slightly modified civic and thinking they are cool! I dont understand how aperson who payed 0ver 75k thinks hes a pimp cuz he beat a 13k car. T just want to see the look on their face when a civic puts it to them and their jaws hit the floor board.

sorry if it seems like im ranting but a guy was laghing as he blew by me in a 360 spyder i mean what is the point.

With enough money you drop in it you can. Check out DC5@EM2 he is running "DC5 K20A Integra Type R engine/trans swap, CyberNation Stage III Turbo kit with a new sleeved block and upgraded internals able to boost to 30+ PSI and Buddy Club Spec III exhaust" <---- his profile. He is pushing at around 500 & up.

If you have enough money, you can do anything..... There are civics running 11's out there, but with more power comes compromise...

lol uncle ben . i thought u were dead.

i dont see what u would be compromising though. if you did a K20 with internals, turbo, and say a 200 shot of nos. What would u be compromising? You can still have a/c, p/s , yes, ud need a roll cage and a splash guard for the tranny.. but explain how u would compromise?

Ever try and get in and out of a car with a roll cage? If you have, you would know that its not that easy. What about losing the backseat? What about trying to get the thing to pass emissions? You need that to drive the car everyday to find those supercars... What about the exhaust sound? By no means will it be "quiet"... What about MPG? There's a compromise....

I could go on for hours, but you get the point...
