TC IS WAY SLOWWWWWWWW!!!! All I can say.
^as compared to waht? It can stomp all aforementioned Si's up to this point, except the 00-01's but they get it by just a tiny bit. If you put the factory s/c on the tC then its got the new Si beaten as well as a shit ton of other cars on the road today. The tc as it is responds really well to intakes and headers. Its possible to be pushing about 185whp from just a header change. I would do the tc. The honda is over priced for what it is, and the tc is cheaper and comes with better features from the get go.
