just a normal vtec, 2001 stock standard
quite weak on power during overtaking.

wayney: is that a vtec engine or normal 8 valve?
Ally's 1.6 vtec delsol (2 door convertable civic) with induction kit and sports exhaust doe sit in around high 16's ( not sure of the bhp of it).

It depends of if your civics are same as ours, and what age etc etc. can you show me a piccy on the net of the type you have, and Ill find out from my club members for you

13. April 2005, 13:53:27

somewhere in the 17-20 second range depending on which tranny and the caffine intake of the driver.

What time would say a stock standard normal little 4 door honda civic with about 125 HP pull in a qm?

I suppose I would guess over 20 but would be curious to know

Wayney: yes it was from stand still ( best reaction time I got was 0.402seconds)

Bwildman: yep, thats on the engine I rebuilt

Backoff: you fool LMAO

Best bit is that Mr Chairman (me) won all his runs against Mr vice Chairman and other club staff who have more BHP and LB/ft than me :oD LOL

Thats an average of more than 100 kmh
Considering its from a stopped position, very very impressive for a street legal car.
I think I could pull a 14 second 1/4 block in mine :(

Now lets compare that to the viper which can be found at most Dodge Dealerships in the US.

500 horsepower
525 lb-ft of torque
505 cubic inches of displacement
Acceleration1 0-60 mph in 4.0 seconds
Standing 1/4 Mile (stock) 12.1@119.3 MPH
Lateral Acc. 1.02G (Lets see the benz do this)


I had a 1994 RT/10 which was just about 400 HP. There was a kit that the shop on Long Island would install for another $15,000 to drop the 0-60 to 3.7 seconds.

There was one drawback: this sidepipes would get red hot! Occasionally when getting out of the car, my left leg would get too close to it, and damn!

I don't like the body style of the new Vipers, but 500 HP is nothing to sneeze at either.
