What do u guys think? My buddy just got a turbonetics kit for his H22A that he has in his 99 civic. He thinks he'll be runnin with these cars, c'mon now is it possible? I mean i know the civic is a lite ass car but even with 400+hp, these other cars are designed to be sport compacts, the civic is not....voice ur opinions!

BTW this is on off topic post as it has nothing to do with a celica rolleyes.gif

but anyways, I doubt his civic will be pushing 400+hp without several other mods. But anyways, I thought the 3s would be kinda fast in the celi but was moddest and didnt think I could roll with "fast" cars. Well I raced an Evo 8 and was only at his back door, and he had started in front of me... On that note also, I got desimated by an AMG mercedes. My point I guess is what trims of the above cars, driver, and additions will make a huge difference and your buddies done up civic could have a chance against some of those cars.

Also, HP numbers are not everything. There is also torque (which honda's are infamous about not having) and weight. I have this video on my comp of a MR2 turbo (w/ 3rd gen 3s-gte pushing 245hp) vs a RX7 with 255hp. Seems like the Rx7 would win hands down but it gets beat up by the MR2 pretty badly. (also that video is of some japanese television show on a profesional course with profesional drivers, not some street race)
