oh and wen has anyone really seen a fast lude....not me...never seen one run below a 15 (i obviously know they are out there) i think the thread is too biased on wat people own

Can you friend not drive? My gosh people learn how to drive. You dont see ludes run any faster than a 15 because hardly ever do you see ludes at the track. Preludes arent as common as my grandmas civic ya know.

I agree with Pat, the prelude is a better car all around...I do love my torque :biggrin:

Yea if a prelude cant be a 115 hp car. I don't know what to say about that...

What people DO NOT understand...

POWER isn't everything. There is wight, transmission gearing, torque, and other things.

Driving ability is also a HUGE FACTOR as well.

For example... RedCivicSi, Sorry Matt, but he had alot done to his 2000 Si and I believe I'm missing one or two things...

Exhaust
Intake
Chipped ECU

JDM B16A from a '92 Civic SiR (OBD1)
Apex'i N1 exhaust
Ractive short ram intake

This is not implying that Matt is a bad driver what-so-ever, but the USDM 99-00 Si is limited on power. My car was putting down 157whp and 112 ft/lbs. Matt with all his add ons, I might be missing a few by the way, came out to be around 155 whp.

Now Steph / 99PreludeSh, when her I last raced.. FROM A DIG... we were dead even to 100 when we shut down. On the highway as mentioned earlier, she would pull me in 3rd gear, everytime... stupid SH, lol

And for fun...

I have mad third gear when bench racing, my internet tires are chirpen' at every imaginary shift.
