Turbo Integra Vs My Car?

[wannaboost94gt]

Feel bad about what?

About also being into imports.

I'm not a hater, I used to have a 92 Celica stroked and turboed with a body kit and custom interior... It got stolen while it was at clutch doctors... I'm pretty sure one of the employees stole it since the theifs knew the alarm code to the shop, no one was ever caught and they paid me but that car was one bad ricer lol. :thumbsup:

I can respect. I may not be that into but I can respect.

After getting a v8 I don't think I could go back but there are some nice ones.

Heres my thought on imports. Very very very.....very very few of them are fast with out boost or the juice. Show me an N/A fast import? Problem is you cant b/c they have small tiny engines that dont make power w/ out an assist from boost/juice.

Nothing beats displacement and thats fact.

Agreed...when we're talking about a straight line. Aside from that brief flirt with retardedness in the 90s and early 2000s, most import enthusiasts realized that where their high rpm/low weight really shines is when the road is no longer straight. For example, the last car I owned was a 2001 MR2 Spyder. Absolutely a pig in a straight line...but give it some corners and watch it disappear. My newly acquired stang may have it beat in the power department by more than 200%, but it's going to need a LOT more suspension work than the Spyder did if it wants to keep up with it on a trip to Tortilla Flat or around an Autox course. And yes, I plan to do that suspension work.

About the only fast NA imports are the more expensive ones...M3 (just because it doesn't come from Japan doesn't mean it's not an import), NSX, etc. And those have a minimum of 6 bangers.

 

[Venom351R]

agreed. I do think most imports are suited better for the corners stock VS a stock mustang. Granted the aftermarket is there to make any Mustang corner like its on rails.

stock iron casting headed 347 he will WAX you all day. i'd bet you might have 350ish WHP all said and done.

my buddy has a 96 teg LS on 8psi 60 trim, makes 280whp. on slicks he ran an 8.0 (1/8th mile) ON 3 CYLINDERS.... granted he can drive, but my point is a 260whp integra is a faster car than yours..........

sorry.......

and incase you're wondering i absolutely know my hondas, incase you'd like to verify go to honda-tech and search username "schardbody".... it was my thing for years and years.

your car, stockish suspension, descent driver on tires through a 5 speed will pull mid to low 8s, his car on tires with me driving would pull low 8s.... and dont even try a roll.......

 

[wannaboost94gt]

:nono: Lets not get our ricer panties in a bunch :thefinger: I post a vid if when my car gets outta the shop. Some people just love internet battles :angry7: Flame on

 

[Venom351R]

but my point is a 260whp integra is a LIGHTER car than yours..........

Fixed

 

[wannaboost94gt]

There you go, I'll be sure and send u a PM first thing of the vid. I just don't understand how lets say 90hp and a **** ton more torque is negligable for a 600 lb difference?

 

[wannaboost94gt]

BTW my heads are not stock they have been heavily ported and have bigger valves with upgraded guides,springs,retainers. just thought I'd point that out.

BTW his car is stock minus a turbo and exhaust... 1.8 L= ~80 Cubic inches Vs. 347

you sound like a ricer. Way too many variables to say shit like this.

and you make no sense, at all.

your saying that he made 280 whp, but was running on 3 cylinders so lets go ahead and say that he was, should drop him to 210 whp assuming he makes 70 hp a cylinder, which would make 280 whp on 4 cylinders.

So you expect me to believe that he ran 8.0 1/8 on 210 whp? I dont know, maybe im crazy but you seem to be talking out of your ass, like most ricers.

I guess I could see 8.0 on 280 whp if the car is 2600lbs or so, but whats with the 3 cylinder bullshit?

And your post count at honda tech MUST mean you know your shit

He doesnt understand torque.

All he knows is light weight and horsepower at 9,000 rpms.

90 hp and a shit ton of torque makes up for 600 lbs all day.

I dont like fwd gay imports...they suck.

I raced a 11.5 second turbo teggy with my 14.0, auto, npi gt on the street a while back and the fucking thing didnt catch me till 70 mph.

I mean seriously?

Your 11.5 second turbo car just took till 70 mph to catch my 180 hp NPI beast?

It just seems really gay to me that most of those cars dont go anywhere untill theyre at 80 mph.

I agree w/ the being down on one cly and running an 8.0 in the 1/8th. First Id have to see a slip, second Id want to see video, third Id want prof it was down one cly. Thats why in NHRA in top fuel or funny car when the have a cylinder that flames out its pretty much an automatic loss b/c its so much of a performance decrease.

But for arguments sake lets say it did run an 8.0 on 3 cyl. That would put it in the midish 12's in the 1/4 mile. I run a 7.9 in the eighth and a 12.5 in the quarter. So adding in that lost cylinder would put it in the low 12's out of a car that has 280 WHP? Sorry dont buy it unless the thing weighs next to nothing and in that case its not a fast car...its a light car that has good power to weight ratio.

As far as the quote yes FWD imports are gay, they look stupid, they sound stupid

 

[Lee12609]

Justin, the car was never dynod before the 8.0 pass, it was on 3 cylinders when it made the pass and then trailered home. Another stock LS longblock was put in and dyno tuned @ 280whp on an awd mustang dyno but nonetheless.

I will be the first to say Honda's are lame now, but I still have a good understanding of what they are capable of. My 93 integra on a 75shot and drag radials went low 8s and was dynod at 220whp. I doubt his 347 would run mid 8s in the 1/8.

He asked a question I answered with real life examples and you all say wrong, so who is narrowminded?

I know what you mean. Two friends of mine goofing around. The Civic is an '03 w/ a E85 running Peakboosted K20A2 with 540 whp and the '69 Corvette is a low compression 468 bbc that runs through a TH400 auto transmission that puts out 360 rwhp. They are both on drag radials if I remember right.

You need to beat that A*s or Ban! jk


you shouldn't have a problem, as a matter of fact
don't waste your gas and time LOL!

Mudvayne FTW!!!

 

[Lee12609]

Lets ask boostfed what a boosted Honda is capable of, I believe he just raced one in his built PI w/ 175 shot...

And the integra that ran the 8.0 on 3 cylinders does infct run 12.3s in the quarter now on the same setup. Its by no means stock weight but not gutted, never been on scales but if I had to guess I'd say 2200lbs. It has drag suspension and slicks. the dyno it was tuned on is known as "the heartbreaker" around here, and I wouldn't doubt if it was over 300whp on a dynojet.
