Default 10 sec N/A Honda 2.0.

Like I commented in the video; 4 banger or not, this man is a gear head and bleeds 5w30 like the rest of us. And I'm surprised being in Brooklyn, the thing hasn't gotten stolen yet.

I wouldn't mind having a stripped out 4-banger for a track toy some day. There was a guy out west that attended the local shows that had a Del-Sol or something hatchback, and he popped the hood and I swear this 4 cyl was MONSTROUS! It easily filled the engine bay. not sure if it was a K20, or K24, but it was a big headed engine! He had it tubed and gutted for auto-x. Was a real site to see.


But seeing skinnies in the back is still going to take some getting used to.

Agree - those skinnies on the back make it look like it should be driving in reverse!

Cool vid though...

The one thing I appreciate is that he's not cocky about it like some HS kid who just happened to be thrown a ton of money and is out for every V8 just for spite.

This^

I'll never appreciate the FWD but can definitely give props to a well done 4banger.

I always see this kinda thing and think "man, what if he applied all that time, money, and know-how to a worthy platform". Maybe that's just the ignorant, die-hard muscle car guy in me? I guess I respect him somewhat for doing a clean build, but that's about it.

Everyone talks about how cheap it is to build an Import/Honda/etc... It is just as expensive as any other platform.

4 pistons/rods/and a crank are the same price as our 8/etc..

That's not even a car more like a banshee 4 wheeler. Its so lite that's what class it should be in. Props for the engineering that went into the thing though.

I agree, not cheap at all to make a 4cyl fast. I paid 760$ for four injectors
