B16 CRX Vs. Civic SI (Boosted B16)

[dereksi]

kEV WHERE WAS THIS MAGIC HAPPENING?

the SI is UNTUNED at 6psi not 8 psi. he did 1 hour of BASE TUNING and thats all. theres another 30-40 whp in the car easily. he didnt have the money to do full tuning

Also the SI has low compression rods and pistons, and a STOCK INTAKE MANIFOLD. with a JG manifold it should make 270-280 at the wheels on 10psi IMO.

Kevin is also running 500lb lighter chassis.

before you guys say "that SI sucks" take all that into account. i know both cars personally. I built the CRX and i know the owner of the SI extremely well and was present at his tuning session.

never said the si sucked at all...i said it sux that he made those numbers at 8lb and be honest i didn;t believe it...sorr y didn;t no it was untune or wut not...i really can;t take shit into account when i assumed the car was tune since he was running 8lbs...i only knew wut kev told me
