Ok so I was chatting with this person who had a Honda and he said he made a 12 second run in his civic with bolt ons. I don't know anything about modding cars and such but that seems way too far fetched to me, am I correct?

Did he have a timeslip?

On fear of sounding like a idiot what's a time slip?

Evil_Capri

It is the piece of paper given to a driver at a track after he/she completes a 1/4 mile pass.

A piece of paper you get from a drag strip that says the time and speed you ran the certain distance at.

Just a second late.

Then no he isn't but some guy said he rebuilt the whole engine and swapped it and it only ran 13's so I'm confused.

It will look like a grocery receipt. Google Drag racing slips. You will find lots of images.

Can you turn your camera next time or something? My neck hurts...

Don't get high and mighty on him. A junkyard Honda with a big honkin' ebay turbo will blow your doors off if you aren't careful.

We're talking bolt ons read the top posts. As for the turbo I'm pretty sure unless they build it the Honda would just blow up from it.

Flagstang

they can take about 10 lbs of boost pretty good.

but keep in mind.. mod for mod the mustang gets more power..

honda CAI+tune = 5hp
mustang CAI+tune = 35hp


its apple to orange to put a stock car against a modded car in general.

Then what would win my 5.0 with a turbo or a civic with a turbo?

Flagstang

unless the civic is really built I would have to say the mustang would. A civic with 400-500 hp is a wild beast and really is not something you would see as a daily driver.

lexi2013

Bet I could make double that with a turbo on my 5.0 but I don't really wana spend the money on it. I don't really see the point in making that much power for a car that will never see the track, much less a cheap car that was never meant to see the track like a civic.

Flagstang

you can make 625 ish on the stock motor. More then that you would need to change stuff out.

lexi2013

I don't really want to do anything right now, it's quick as it is! Maybe after a few months I might want more power though.
