Do you think a brand new 197 HP Civic Si can beat a 914 with 3.0 6 conversion? My buddy who doesn't have a preference either way says that the civic will win hands down (he has a VW symbol tattooed on his calf too). Even if the 914-6 has 260 - 280 HP. What do you guys think?

I'll answer this with caution... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
First, what are we talking about 0-60? If so yes, civic will win. A 914-6 is not a zero to sixty car, never will be unless gearbox ect is non stock. Second, unless it's a pretty exotic 3.0, 260-280 hp is not realistic. That being said, put them on a road course or auto-x and results will change. Ferg (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
