where at in the bay? im from sacramento.

 

and for the original question. a 99-00 si with a greddy turbo kit. EASY win.

 

South San Francisco..a small city south of San Francisco..haha..I've been to sac a lot actually..just about 1.5 hrs away

 

Anyways..99-00 si w/ greddy turbo..what other performance mods can be used to make it more powerful? i am seriously considering it and getting it all done with before the end of March..

also..I would need a car that would be capable of beating a 2004 mercedes C230 sedan (189hp, defaultly supercharged..but is an auto)

 

turbo si=no sweat. those Benzs are heavy. start with the si, some good brake pads and maybe slotted rotors, and a really good set of tires. then get the turbo and an intercooler. youll handle really well, and out-accelerate most of the high end hardware youre aiming at. youll have some problems with highly modded domestics and turbo supras and such, but for the most part, youll be the quickest one around. oh, and look into swapping a type r tranny for the lsd.

 

Just cause it's expensive doesn't mean it's fast... if only the Germans could catch on...

 

but you gotta give it to em, the fit and function of a good German car is hard to beat. i mean, they have great interiors and the chassis is really solid, but, with that solidity and plushness, comes weight.

 

I have an idea, why dont you actually buy a car that was meant to be fast instead of spending crazy amounts of money trying to get your crappy little civic up to par with a stock jaguar x-type. Huh? Ever think about that?

 

I hate dick's like that. Isnt it more fun to stomp on cars that are more expensive and/or have bigger motors with little cars with 4 bangers than something that compares. It just adds that little bit more thrill to saying "I kicked your ***"
