He's got an 02 si with k20 a2 hondata ecu whatever that all means.

 

meaning he hits vtec at like 3500rpm.... I've driven a k20 and hit vtec.... slowwwwwwwwwww as hell, but sounds nice. my friend has an 06 si and thinks his car is fast as hell and burns on my cobalt all the time, but fails to show me what his car has

 

get a tune and super rape

lmfao

 

lol 2nd video "fifteen FOOAAARRRRR!!"

 

Tell your friend to put his money where his mouth is, and race him, or I'll do it for you. Friends who talk smack about cars need to get a life. If your friends can't respect your car like you respect theirs, go find some new friends. This kid is a loser.

 

Woo do I get a prize!??!!

 

exactly i am going through the same issue with a friend of mine i always say see me on the streets or the track i hate people who talk trash while sitting in parking lots throwing mods at cars and can't drive its a big pet peeve of mine

 

15.4ooooooooooooorrr lmao dont know much about the si cuz they are not worth my time.

I live in denver and at my strip (5800ft) i ran a 14.426 at 101mph stock with hell of spin. even moded he will get smoked imo

you made a good choce my friend with like $1500 you can be in the mid 300hp now tell him to name a si that can do that without a balt raping the tailpip

 

uhhhmmmm...sure, your prize is me tellin you "good guess!" lol

 

here's a post made in another thread about stock turbo hp limits.
https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/5363421-post3.html

Tell your friend to go suck an egg and you arent friends anymore but officially rivals that will race for money at the track every weekend till he cant afford it anymore.

It appears that with a stock turbo, bolt ons, and a tune spending no more than $2000 altogether will net you ~350whp and ~400trq. Thats pretty decent yes?

 

all crap.

ha-ha!

The only remotely stock Civic Si that's going to keep up (probably a drivers race depending on tune) is a late model car with a supercharger;
I am still stock, and there is a local '09 Si with a really loud supercharger, unlike most of the ricers, he seemed cool and didn't seem to be BSing me;
He told me he had a "bolt on" supercharger kit installed on his car and he was supposed to be running about 300whp - which based on his e/t's is probably correct;
I raced him three times and lost all three - he only had a couple mph on me going through the traps.

I could give you recommendations, or just tell you what I eventually plan on doing;
I'm going the latter route;
I plan on:

• Stage 1
• Modern Performance (catted??) downpipe
• Modern Performance catback
• Over The Top Performance rotated mounts - I've chosen these ones because the others are polyurethane, and I would prefer rubber so that they actually absorb some vibrations ect.
• tune on top of stage1

But even then, I'm in no rush to do that stuff;
Most have scoffed at me for buying the stage1 (I bought it about a month after buying the car, but it has sat in it's box in my basement mostly because I've enjoyed my car as-is for time being) - when an aftermarket tune pretty much makes the whole stage kit seemingly obsolete;
the deal with the stage 1 is the sensors can better monitor boost levels - aftermarket tunes generally push the limits of the stock sensors, so by using the Stage1 sensors, you're (in theory) creating a safety margin...

I hope I've helped some!

 

Always anti-sieze spark plugs.

So not use too much, just a slight coating on the threads of each plug.

And of course properly torque each plug to spec, which is 15ft/lbs on the LNF engine. If you don't torque them properly, you can pop a plug out of the head, ruining the threads in the head. Cylinder pressures are high in a boosted engine, which is why proper torque is critical.

 

sorry to bump ancient history, but, damn

What an excellent thread.

 

any one esle notice the oraange cobalt at 0:16 in the second vid. kinda nice
