Default Look at this Civic...BS!

Okay, I am reading this article, and I notice they say the damn car has 11:1 pistons and 550cc injectors and claims to make 547whp....dont 550's max out somewhere before that...this article is full of lies, I think hatchback with 540whp should run better than an 11 also....

550 injectors was a misprint. He's runnin 720cc injectors. I assure you, that car made 540whp. How you ask? I was there for the dyno session, and I saw 540whp with my own damm eyes!! Jack should have drove that that to the 10's but he was too much of a bitch! lol... He didnt want to break anything so he babied that car on the 1/4 mile. He shifted slow, I mean really slow!! Other then the 550 injectors there isn't anything else that is false on that article.

yeah i was also wondering about the amount of boost...i know a guy that recently ran 11.8 w/ slicks and i know for a fact hes running 12psi...and that cant be anywhere near 547...

hmm, this intrigues me

Jack should have drove that car to the 10's but he was scared to break things so he took it easy at the track. lol

you should be able to hit the 10's with high 400s at the ground...........we ran a 10.83@135 with a full interior GSR street car with only 508@ the ground...........
