I am stupid or is this guy just full of BS?

Where do I get the comparison? It's called simple knowledge. If were both making the same amount of power, say 600whp. You are going to leave me off the line with ease whether or not I weigh 1,000 pounds less than you do. You are PUSHING your weight, I'm PULLING. Later down the track once I'm putting the power to the ground, absolutely I have the advantage, but that's where your head start comes into play.

You've never been in a high horsepower FWD car have you?

You assume he has a lot of work done to his car, more than what he has done I guarantee it, probably because you assume Honda's can't make big power unless there's a decent amount of work. Look at the civic my brother had. Stock motor with a headgasket making 400whp on pump. If alone Armour had a K series that thing would be disgusting.

You just don't understand it do you. You come on here talking numbers, this and that BS, yet the car you spent how much on, 30's? Is getting worked on by probably a less than $10K project. Just imagine what that thing would be doing if he had 30K to spend.

Holy Crap! If I only knew you just have to replace your head gasket on a civic to put out 400 hp I'd have never bought my Camaro.

Replace the PCV line with a small filter and it is good for 30WHP.

Not to mention a huge wing and some stickers adds about 200 HP.

I hate when people Fast & Bi-Curious their cars.

Great thread.

This thread just might turn into a funny "rice burner" thread!
