Civic Got Towed
Nope, 420 is LOW LOW balling whats in there. Ill let you know what its official hp is. I mean it could be MUCH more than that. My friends bud has a Trans Am with around 650hp, that can run around a 8.56.

Civic Got Towed
Now getting a kit is putting a bad taste in my mouth. If it's gonna fuck up my warrenty, and my civic is having trouble after 5000 miles, i dont know if I should at the moment.

This is why I never buy car with warranties because they you can't do shit to your car.

http://turbomirage.phpwebhosting.com/videos/DynoPeg.wmv This mustang has 1400 wheel horsepower and runs mid-7's in the 1/4 mile. Still think that trans am is only one second slower with less than half the horsepower? Think again bro... He probably got that time on a 1/8 mile track.

a 10.3 1/8 mile is not slow enough for a car with 420HP, my 160hp accord ran a 10.8 in the 1/8 mile.
get the stats of the run again, cuz i dont think he is hitting those kinda numbers in the 1/4.

Whats Horsepower
1HP = the ability to do work equal to that of lifting 33,000lbs one foot in 1 minute.
Proven that to bring a 3,000lbs rear wheel drive car down the 1/4mile in less than 13 seconds will need a speed of 134mph & 275HP with a 2800lbs civic you would need 680HP to run 9's 33,000 pounds-feet per minute or 550 pounds-feet per second 2000lbs car with 425HP should run 10.55 in the 1/4
