dang!!im so pissed!! so slow!!
 

i was juss driving around and i saw a 04 civic ex. so i got next to him then we started to race on the green light, then after like 3rd gear he was in front of me... $hi|... so i followed him then asked him wut he got in the hood.. he said "juss an air filter" (i saw the "K&N" sticker on the side window.. ) i told him i got header and the AEM V2 intake .. but i dont know y mine was slower than he's civic... then he said "may be because mine is stick and ur car is an auto" .... and he said "i beat the mustang wit this, i dont know how".............
weird ... then he told me if i get the exhaust done it might get lil bit faster ........my car is amazingly slow or something...it was the same civic ex (mine was 03 and he's was 04)...weird....:hithead: :hithead: :hithead: :hithead: :hithead: :hithead:

"may be because mine is stick and ur car is an auto"

he answered you already..

yup, manuals are a lil faster than autos.

but wut about the intake and the header??? he had none!! (new air filter)

lmao!

stick has 10-15whp over auto so yea. intake and header gives you +3whp.

well manual get that little more power and are about a second difference on the quatermile. i/h/e wont add much power on a d17a2. you only have 3 hp if that. manuals have like 10hp more i believe. from dyno charts a saw

damn time to trade the car... i dont love my car anymore (T.T)

manuals can also climb the gears higher

you dont have to trade it save up and swap the motor out or boost the car.

yea....i hate my auto, just the tranny tho, i love the car itself :lol:

yea thats why i like manual

:_doh: :_doh: :_doh: :_doh: :_doh: :_doh: :hithead: :hithead: :flush: :flush: :rofl: :rofl:

sorry i messed up i didnt read it fully and i didnt see both of them where to ex's because some do come with 117 and some come with 127

he just lost cause the other guy was manual....simple as that

hmmm... I dont know about a little.... when I was stock and raced an auto LX with my 5 speed LX, I had a few car lengths on him by the end of 2nd gear.

yooze got good gramma yo! mtv raps! haha
this goes to show---why its a waste of money to spend money on bolt-ons.

manual>auto

:tdown:

I love my auto, i bought it just to cruise around in, plus i was never taught how to drive manual anyway, im deprived lol

i think he just added you to his kill list

:roflmao: :roflmao:

its not even how much power you have or dont have, its all about getting what power you have to the road... manual will get it there better.

So teach yourself :)

holy crap there must be something wrong there, you need to go learn like now....:screwy: :screwy: :screwy:

usually race and auto don't go together well unless you drive a 1000hp supra.

Heh...didn't know that...makes me love my manual that much more.

I just bought my car with a manual which was the only way I made sure I learned how to drive a manual. Else I couldn't drive my new car...lol. My dad taught me the day we bought it and had the hang of it enough to drive around by myself after an hour.

yeah, i test drove another civic to get the hang of it and then bought mine a few days later. i learned on someone elses clutch, then bought the new car with 2 miles on it! :lol: :lol: i learned how by myself though.

lol..

Dude, dont feel bad about it.

I ran into a 2 door EX while driving home from the inlaws house one day. He was ahead of me in the left hand turn lane. When the light turned green, he left hard, squeeling the tires around the whole turn. When i got straight in the lane, i got on it. I started passing him very quickly, then suddenly he started keeping up a bit. But by 3rd, i was pulling on him by a decent amount again.

When we got side by side, the guy was like "What the hell do you have done?"
I told him "an exhaust and ram air intake".
He said "BullSh*t, i just lost to you and i have a 75 shot of nitrous."

I told him he must not be very good at driving. :hgrin:



BTW, i was running 11 psi on a T3/T04E with a ported cylinder head and a 2.5" straight through exhaust.
