RE: Civic vs Supra
HAHA either that Supra was an NA or the civic had some crazy mods. I seriously doubt you can just slip a turbo on a civic and do that he was prolly boosting one bar. i could be wrong but im sure he didnt have stock interals in that block either. Im sorry guys thats just a lil too much or the guy in the Supra didnt know how to drive

nah man. it can happen. my buddy down in dallas souped his civic to about 380 HP and beat a Corvette so i mean it is very possible for civics to get that much power. although yes it looks like the supra driver don't know squat about shifting gears perfectly. LOL.

That would mean doing a GSR swap and boosting the ***** off it... And as far as I know, no one has ever done a GSR -> Supra swap. Plus, that Civic is pushing over 550 hp/ 380 lb/ft at the wheels, and it weighs significantly less that a Supra.

The IDRC's Pro-Am FWD class is arguably one of the most popular, competitive and exciting classes in import drag racing. From coast to coast, privateer racers and shops are building Pro-Am FWD cars to wage war at IDRC events or just to earn bragging rights at their local drag strip and on internet forums.
Since Pro-Am FWDs are essentially high-performance, daily-driven, street car on slicks, just about every enthusiast can relate to a Pro-Am FWD racecar. When looking for a marketing plan that would showcase their talents, Modacar of Livermore, California decided to put their business on the map by building its own Pro-Am FWD beast. While most would have chosen the lightest platform possible, Modacar paid little attention to weight management when they selected a 1999 Civic Si as their platform. At an average weight disadvantage of 300 to 500 pounds, the Modacar Coupe relies on a healthy dose of horsepower to be competitive in its class. Currently, horsepower checks in at nearly 700 horsepower at the wheels with plans for more ponies in the future.

Now THAT is some serious tuning.
