It's because of the WS6's fully-functional and very effective ram-air system. The ram-air almost acts like forced induction at higher speeds.

I was wondering what your mods were? Maybe you posted them sometime before, but I'm not about to search through 9 pages of nonsense looking for it! Please post all your mods and what kind of car you have again, please.

i see a cold air intake, a strut tower bar, a red valve cover (which could be painted that way or ordered from a magazine), and a removed heat shield. most of your claimed engine work was internal so that pic doesnt prove anything. give us timeslips or dyno sheets.

Actually I see everything she said she had save of course the internal work. A 5th gen civic with a DOHC swap, the heat shield is removed because the JDM headers (which are pictured) don't have the holes for the heat shield to be bolted up to and I also see a FPR. Admit it ppl, she's packin.

My guess is B16 but I really don't get the aftermarket mounts.

ahh i missed the regulator tucked back in there but now i see it, and stupid me i didnt even think about civics that year model not coming dohc. i was thinking the new si is dohc so the 92-95 si's were too for some reason. i guess it is all there that should be there.

i still dont see it beating an rx7 or ss, not in any type of fair race, and i still dont see the reason for 108 octane gas though.

108 seems a bit silly when you only got 210hp

Well, the JDM TypeR has slightly less than that, and it runs on 108-octane...available in Japanese gas pumps. This is why JDM engines can run higher compressions. Maybe HER car is running high compression?
