My New Car - NOS2Go4Me - 03-30-2006 SPI - 110BHP @ 5000 RPM, 125 lb-ft @ 3750 RPM. I'll take the torque any day. My New Car - Phantom - 03-31-2006 Quote:SVT ZX3 Posted Yesterday, 05:08 PM Quote: NOS2Go4Me Posted Today, 07:52 AM Looks like the SPI and normal focus own the SI civic :D. Least the SPI in TQ. My New Car - lordkingod - 03-31-2006 My civic equipped with the k20a3 engine (160hp, 130tq) has been dynoed at 165whp and 142tq with only an ebay cai, dc race header, custom midpipe. For only $450usd worth of mods I bolted on 30whp and 20tq over baseline. Lets see any focus accomplish that with so little spent on mods. -P@ My New Car - darkpuppet - 03-31-2006 lordkingod,Mar 30 2006, 05:31 PM Wrote:My civic equipped with the k20a3 engine (160hp, 130tq) has been dynoed at 165whp and 142tq with only an ebay cai, dc race header, custom midpipe.

I'm just assuming that God would prefer a focus owner over a civic one in Heaven.. I could be wrong, but I'm willing to take that chance. If it weren't for ricers, we wouldn't have any reason to pick on civics, My New Car - ZX3TUNR - 03-31-2006 lordkingod,Mar 30 2006, 04:31 PM Wrote:My civic equipped with the k20a3 engine (160hp, 130tq) has been dynoed at 165whp and 142tq with only an ebay cai, dc race header, custom midpipe.

Code: Yr model Engine HP Torque 0-60 1.4 mile All the above shows is that the argument of the "I rather have more torque" is really stupid and is ONLY used by people who feel they have inferior performing cars. You can see above that even with less torque the Civic is better performing. Look how close the ST is to the Civic DX for performance...that's scary, .5L more displacement, 11more HP and 26 ft. lbs more torque for that little difference...LOL It's not all about the HP and torque numbers. With that said, I challenge any Focus on here to a dyno shootout, or 1/4 mile shootout, or "hwy pull" with my old grandpa, automatic car, if I lose I'll buy you lunch. My New Car - hardk0re - 03-31-2006 your on..... what do you want for lunch :P My New Car - Flofocus - 04-01-2006 The big man is talking s***!! :P Your on!!! :lol: My New Car - Jays2000ZX3 - 04-01-2006 I'm sorry guys, you'll have to at LEAST be running 13's for me to waste the $1.50 a liter gas to race you.... ;) lol My New Car - Flofocus - 04-01-2006 pffff, that boat is not running 13's. And hardkore is in the 13's. ;) My New Car - Jays2000ZX3 - 04-01-2006 He is? Sorry, I ran a 14.1 last year, and now the car has more mods, you are right though, it's not running 13's "officially" Let's have a track day! :D My New Car - NOS2Go4Me - 04-01-2006 So you converted it to a turbo? Or just found more boost?

I think someone forgot that it's not the same year he bought his focus... there's a lot more FI running around here nowadays. My New Car - Jays2000ZX3 - 04-01-2006 Oh I know there is, I just don't see any fast ones :D My New Car - FociPhil - 04-01-2006 P-51 is in the GTA now...bet he would match up nicely.
