Always keep in mind civic. Especially the economy versions were built with "aero efficiency" in mind. To me, even a lightly modded one could be dangerous to known fast cars. If you take a car build with a low drag co-efficient and slap se power under it, you are going to have something that performs very very well in a straight line once it hooks. Just for reference. My 06' r18 civic with just an intake while stationed in Germany would give mk3 and Mk4 vr6 golfs a dead even acceleration pull till about 85-90mph where I would kinda creep myself to a full car and a half length on them nlbefor2 hitting my 212km/h governor. To me that's very impressive. Mind you my civic without any stupid body kits at it's time was like 3rd place on the drag co-efficient list of 2006. I think that's what makes properly modded civics so dangerous for straight line racing. I remember back in the 90's people made fun of civics where seeing the loud fart cans and the horrific underglow lights and body kits showing up to the races. Often, some of these guy woukd talk big money bets on a race and people were scared to race them. Mofos would be like yo what you got under the hood of that? Suddenly they were worried about what the ol fart can ricer burner had under the hood. Good times none the less.

[@impulsivedesigns]

Why is that impressive? A CVT is the most efficient way of putting power to the ground. Manuals fall off with gear changes and full autos do the same and suck even more power. A CVT always has the best mechanical advantage, even if they are kinda boring and overly hated.

[@byBrandyn]

If that Bimmer was actually tuned to its maximum, as well as upgrades, i think the outcome would of been different and though close that Honda is basically maxed out. As far as that 1.5t engine and cvt paired up is concerned. Much more would take a fuel system upgrade and either an endless amount of cvts or swapped for manual or maybe the accords 10speed ? Don't even know if that would be possible was just exploring the options if any really . That cvt although strong is pushing its limit. When i push mine i cant help but get that feeling that " something is gonna give !!" lmao. I can't believe mine is still going strong at 210k and little under half of those spent tuned ! I've had other cvts and they are fragile, and you know it too or can feel it. Like its made of glass almost. This civic cvt leaves you feeling like its got more to give, and its never flinched or anything on me. Of course im not 300+ whp or torq! Now if this Bimmer was maxed i wonder what this might look like?
