03 V6 accord vs 1.8 t VW

[Julio]

3 runs...... 1.8 t in rear view mirror quick all 3 runs, about 2 or 3 cars length

This was this past saturday.

[Pablo]

i was wondering when this was going to surface

[Allstar3.8T]

You raced the wrong 1.8T!! ;)

[Kevykev]

3 runs...... 1.8 t in rear view mirror quick all 3 runs,

what a great way to claim/state victory :D

:blah: i give him 1 month until the accord is in the rear view like that hatch of his ;) ; enjoy the 50+hp while you got it :)

[Kevykev]

uh ohhh!!

[DeutscheBAG!]

You raced the wrong 1.8T!! ;)

LOL..my thoughts exactly...

[Julio]

Oh, C'mon V-Dub guys... This is heavy ass accord w/ an intake and exhaust, Slow tank and automatic.....

Nothing else.

[JITB]

stock 1.8t's are pretty slow......BUT they build up so nice....i pulled a stock one this summer, when i had bolt ons.

[4dmin]

stock 1.8t's are pretty slow......BUT they build up so nice....i pulled a stock one this summer, when i had bolt ons. you pulled on a stock one in what... the protege???

[Allstar3.8T]

I agree Julio, a 1.8T outta win .....from a dead stop... not a highway roll when the accords weight is no longer a factor, and an auto tranny actually helps :)
A win is a win, and part of that is knowing when NOT to race....Mhmmm PAUL!! :P

[4dmin]

A win is a win, and part of that is knowing when NOT to race....Mhmmm PAUL!! :Pi figure i would give him another try at it since the swaped hatch wasn't a problem ;)

[Julio]

i figure i would give him another try at it since the swaped hatch wasn't a problem ;)

Hahha... ok.. :p

after seeing what the VW ran at the track and seeing what times it was doing, Only way you could take the hatch is only at high speeds. from a roll, I highly doubted.

Im sure you wont be stock once I get the EG ready.

[4dmin]

my car runs mid-low 15's bone stock(with traction ctrl off)...

[Julio]

How can your car run a mid to low 15 when It hasn't? C'mon Paul you know better, stop reading sport compact and snap back into reality.. haha

The track is no joke.......

You need to get some seat time at the track and you will know what im talking about.

[4dmin]

dan ran a 15.6 in it in the 1st run.... should i post the slip b/c your car ran a 25sec pass against it <<< owned biatch!!!

[Julio]

hahhahha he ran a 15.7... don't dig seconds up.. yeah yeah yeah, My car did a 25 second pass (owned) but we all know what happened there. I mean, if your car can't rev pass 4k rpm shit happens.

My best runs 15.6 15.8... and if I wouldnt have that small Incident who knows..And I ran my car biotch. All stock LS. Beat out pablo and Dan sup now? hahhaha

This is great, talking about 15 sec cars.

[4dmin]

^ no dan ran a 15.6 in my car and brandon ran a 15.7 i'll post slips bitch... :321:


This is great, talking about 15 sec cars.

^ lol ^ atleast we are in the 15's don't think the cabby or your old motor would of made it there ;)

[Allstar3.8T]

I'll sit here for 2 more seconds, then I can talk about being a 15 sec cars too!! HAHA
I have seen stock GTIs run 14.8 w/ no mods, just great driving. Paul, whenever you want to drop 1.5 secs off that time, I'll get ya in a chip if ya want.

Paul, whenever you want to drop 1.5 secs off that time, I'll get ya in a chip if ya want.i'm working on the chip now, maybe k04, seeing what i can work out right now. i'm trying to see if i can have it ready for TunerFest to run. we'll see.

[JITB]

you pulled on a stock one in what... the protege???
yes sir!...there were plenty of witness. 1st run he lied and said it was just a 2.0. We ran once, and we were dead even. And the second time i got away from him.

[Julio]

Im with Greg C, is all about the driving...!! well unless you drive a Kia.

[Chuckster]

wow 3 cars, impressive! Paul get that damn chip and it will never happen again.

and that accord is not that heavier then the golf

stock v6 accords run 16s

[Julio]

Stock V6 accords run 16's? Maybe the old ones. The new accord's v6 are running high 14 's stock.

[4dmin]

And the second time i got away from him.no way w/ bolt on's would protege beat 1.8t, unless the person totally couldn't drive... he probably was in a 2.0, what hp/lbs is your car rated from the factory???

"C'MON STOP READING SPORT COMPACT" - LOL (couldn't help myself)

maybe we need to put the new accord up against mine.

i know ryans cl stomped a modded one at import showdown and his car was running low 15s

[Julio]

The one that Ryan stomped was a 98-02 model, white, kitted... totally diffrent as an 03 an up.

There was no new accords at Import showdown running, So im not sure what you talking about.

it was a gold, 1.8t gti 4dr i think..125hp.115tq is what the protege is rated at stock. ANd this summer stock at commerce i ran a 16.5 bone stock with the a/c and all that still on the car. my car weighs 2400lbs with everything, allt he shit ive taken out ahs to be atleast 300lbs+. it was a gti he had his boost gauge etc and i could hear it spool, btu it was dead stock..as far as i could tell.

we can run our cars and find out ;)

[99SI]

I'll beat all of you with an all motor b16.

oh ok then im thinking of the wrong model. i though that model came out in 04

no problem..it was boosted tho. Ive been tryin to get to commerce for the last month. maybe we will meet up there one wekened.

[Julio]

my money is on the protoge as both cars stand right now =]

[JITB]

*protege :)

[Kevykev]

^ saw this guy over the weekend :D

[Chuckster]

Paul what all do you have done? just a FMI? im sorry to say this but your gonna get your ass handed to again.

[PsssGtiVR6]

so how did this 1.8t get beat by an accord?? never hurd of such, i would think the 1.8t would kill it....thats just me but i drive the VR6 Gti....

[Chuckster]

well here are some excuses of why he lost, turbo lag, cant drive, a combo of can't drive and turbo lag.

Or the accord is pretty quick

[Julio]

Easy, both cars are literally stock.

the accord dynoed at 196 hp to the wheels 167 tq.... Hes car dynoed at 147 or 150 and like 160+ tq.

Stock those cars are not much to talk about. Now after mods, diffrent stories.

[PsssGtiVR6]

heh. yea i beat a 1.8t gti last weekend in Birmingham. this guy had everything upgraded on his car except for the turbo and he said he was pushin out something like 257 at the wheels...so i raced him and all i have is an intake and exhaust...so i got him off the line but he got me by a half car....

[Julio]

well here are some excuses of why he lost, turbo lag, cant drive, a combo of can't drive and turbo lag.

Paul never use those excuses. The accord straight walk his 1.8t.

[PsssGtiVR6]

want to run a VR6?

[Julio]

GTI vr6 are way faster then the 1.8 I beleive the vr6 is rated at 200 BHP wich most likely will put down like 190 to the ground since VW are so under rated.
Also I beleive Chucks Jetta will be a fun run.
Correct if im wrong with this stats, Im not a VW guy. But been reading alot , thanks to paul and me trying to get with the program.

[PsssGtiVR6]

well yes...but if the guy has $2500+ in it, then its not supposed to be like that....heh

[Julio]

naw man , I don't want to run no one. It seems like some of you VDUB guy got offended.
I'll let my girl do the driving since is her car.. and maybe add more iceing to the cake.
Im really surprised with the new accords thats all.

[PsssGtiVR6]

lol..no offense taken...i was just kiddin, i live in tuscaloosa and race in birmingham....heh

[Julio]

is cool man... Paul is one of my best friends and business partner .. so we were just bullshitting back and forth.

So I heard that track down there is very friendly to run, maybe one day ill go down there once im done with my lil civic.

[Chuckster]

Paul never use those excuses. The accord straight walk his 1.8t.


well i do cuz im a sore loser

[PsssGtiVR6]

they are alright...i guess...still i havent been to the track yet. but yea

[gtikid]

yea 24v VR6 = 200 BHP but a 12v VR6 has 176 BHP...wish i would of known this before i got my GTI :doh:

[KevinT707]

I would like to just see how quick the VR6s' are .. a challenge perhaps? 196 whp for the 200 HP rated (03-Auto only) V6 Accord is very good .. hmm, more than just bolt ons

[PsssGtiVR6]

im not auto.......6spd....whats the challenge?

[KevinT707]

I was say the Accord V6 comes auto , challenge me & you .. sometime .. whoa Alabama is kinda far ride , I might have to find another VR6 around here

[4dmin]

Paul never use those excuses. The accord straight walk his 1.8t.:werd: i didn't use any excuses shit i did three hwy runs 3rd/4th/5th gear... 3rd gear was obviously the best run, but he still pulled... we are talking a 50+hp difference in cars... i'm running a stock k03 which shouldn't have a chance w/ a v6 accord anyway, but it was fun to see... julio & me are boys nothing but some good shit talking at its best... he had to get a bigger motor to play on the hwy ;)

but i still say the 1.8t now matter k03/k03s is well underrated, my car ran the same numbers at the track as julios gutted ls swaped hatch and i got about 500+lbs on him atleast. as far as cars go there really isn't anything in the market that is making more power in its class, i've walked civic si, celica gts, v6 stang... but i'll be v6 accord hunting after the new parts are installed :goodjob:

[PsssGtiVR6]

shoulda got a VR!!!!!

[4dmin]

^ na 1.8t cheaper and better response to mods :)

[PsssGtiVR6]

better response to mods.....UNLESS you have the money to do so! :) heh

[SkrrEuroSportGLI]

1.8T is the way to go......Unless you got like 30,000 to go with a TT system by HPA racing for a VR6.....But who wants to spend that much.....Not me

[Chuckster]

psstGTiVR6 what yo got down to your ride i'll be in bama sumtime soon to visit a buddy of mine that goes to University Of Alabama

maybe we coudl hit the track up some time

[Chuckster]

better response to mods.....UNLESS you have the money to do so! :) heh

not expensive to mod

[mi4dub]

vr6 and 1.8's have like 3k difference in price. i would gladly put in the diff to the 1.8t and spank that ass
