Nice civic. No whine though.

And the srt4 looked like he fucked up on his 2nd gear shift

i dont think he was taking off on the 2nd honk. i think he was brake boosting, thats why he jumped ahead.

I was impressed by the Civic Si. I know it costed the guy a fortune, but my wife has an Si and that thing is *****-slow. It can hardly get out its own way.

i doubt his s/c set up cost 6,700 bucks, unless hes including all his other mods on the car. looks like he has the comptech stage 1 s/c which isnt that good. lol. now stage 2 on the other hand will lay down 300+ whp pretty easy. highest ive heard of on a s/c set up was 350whp or so i believe. right around the fastest tvs guys on this forum.

agreed on the price diffrence tho. but honestly if i had the money to blow i would have went that route instead of a cobalt.
