The acceleration at 2:30 sounded awesome.

Just got me a 09 sedan si for 4500. Stock except for exhaust. Has 153,000. Just sold my c5 for it. I have a family now. If you wanna know my reason. Fun but slow car. Ima look into supercharge it.

Sam Baker just had his turbo vr6 Corrado dyno tuned at CFT today in Orlando 750whp :)

This is actually a good idea, I prefer turbocharged cars but in this case I think a supercharger balances out the high revving peaky power the engine makes. Looks like a nice and well sorted car! 👍

I have changed my views on civics after this, supercharged is the way to go awesome vid

I do love my Fa5 aside from needing more power. I have been looking into the kraftwerks kit and I think it provides the most performance for the money. The k20 is fantatsic and I beat on the car a lot and over the last 30k miles I've only had normal maintenance.

Sick FA5, though I can't say I'm a fan of the bubble face RPF1s. I know the Kraftwerks kits generally make power easier but I would still go with the Comptech SC, it's all about that whine lol.

I personnaly have a CSX type S and love the K20. In fact, K20>K24. Why? Because the Vtec is way more aggressive. Also, I don't mind people saying shit about Honda, they are constantly at the top for reliability and resale value. Nothing wrong with being at the top except that everyone feels the need to find shit they don't like. I got this car for 16k 4 years ago and it's still worth 13k if I check on the BlackBook website... that's amazing!

I have vtec in my 2014 honda vfr 800 interceptor motorcycle! Haven't experienced it yet(still in break in period) but kicks in at like 6500 or 6800 rpm!
