Default had a nice race today with a new friends Civic SI coupe w I/H/E

he had what seemed to be an AEM (at least the filter was AEM, it said it on it) short ram intake, DC sports headers, and a 2.25" mandrel bent exhaust with cat remove, alsosome kind of skunk coilovers or springs,i dont knowjust saw the stickers on his car (the only sticker btw, his car is clean) with a slight drop, and some nice gunmetal17's (i saw under his hood, so i know he wasn't lieing about any of the mods)

(to make this clear, this was on a rarely used stretch of highway 4 lanes wide, and we waited until we were the ONLY vehicles around to do this, so the only ones in danger were me and him.)

first run: about 65mph punch, i start about from behind him, and was gonna try to catch up up and pass him..... did it quick, i wasswitching lanes and ready to passby 85ish, in front of him in my lane by 100, back in his lane by 115, and then ran it up to 130ish and shut her down with him behind 5-6 car lengths behind...

i get off her and slow back to 70mph, he yells "your car pulls hard" and i yelled back just to be nice "you hung pretty well" so i say "you wanna do one more from a roll on the third honk? he agrees...3rd honk and we both get on the mark launches, i pulled hard, we went from about 65mph i shut her down at 120 with him about 6 car lengths behind.... i believe those come with the K20 moter if im mistaken, anyone know what kind of numbers he should have been making with the mods he has?

What year was his Civic SI? The most recent SI outputs 197 HP (stock). I/H/E nets you around 10-18 HP....so he was looking at ~207-215.

If you have an SH motor, replace the limiter that cuts off gains past 250HP.

EDIT- btw SH stood for "Super-Handling"....Super my ****, Honda.
