just thought i'd share with everyone. while driving around town last night, i had some pecker on my butt for a few blocks. finally, he decided to switch lanes and go around. i noticed it was a 7th gen Si, and as he pulled beside me, we hit a red light. so we're both first in line at the light, and he starts revving his engine. so i start revving mine up and the light turns and i take off and so does he....and i won?!?! i also squealed my tires, which i thought was funny because i can never do that on command. so, the next light was red, but turned green when we got to it, and i was just driving along, and the Si goes blowing past me. long story short, we ended up hitting another red light and we went again, and this time he managed to pull ahead of me, but not by much. i just thought it was kinda funny that the first time i managed to embarrass him, and the second time i kept up with him. i don't really think he was a good driver, but it keeps putting a smile on my face to think about it. hehe...

kool it guys

7th gen si's are slow, stock. but respond well to bolt-ons, plus with a good driver is a deadly beast. all this trash talk on 7th gens is getting on my nerves

For real. I own a 7th gen Si and granted it is slow stock (just like any civic) but with simple bolt ons and a good driver your deep into the lower 14s from what Ive seen. So dont hate.

Just keeping it real. When any vehicle is done right it can be fast. The K20A3 has been a good platform for boost from most people say and a head swap from an A2 will bump up the power. I personally am going to go NA and will eventually do this swap plus alot more. Plus how many people have the mini minivan civic? Its the least me-too civic out of all of them. And the ladies love my "shifter position".
