Default 60mm Turbo Civic vs Ported Eaton Cobro & Bolt On 5.Bro
The Civic vs Cobro races have caused quite a stir on the 3H Facebook page, if anyone likes some good drama!


I made this meme video to **** with Cobros and it has been a huge hit so far! lol

I don't see why this would cause drama but then again we are talking about facebook. I bet that civic is around 2k lbs vs a 3700 plus lb cobra. Went like I thought it would good kills.

So I have heard the civic is actually claiming 380whp. 299 was his baseline before.

That sounds more realistic, it sounded like the Cobra dipped pretty low in RPMs when he shifted right before he was left

In the second race it sounded like the Cobra started in fourth gear or something.

Regardless, the Civic runs hard.

Civic seems way higher in HP, and cobra really needed a better driver. Quick little mother **** none the less!

The Civic does make more than 299, but that's the only dyno reading he has, so I go with it because **** Ford.

Ohio still thinks he lives in Texas, but he doesn't. Civic owner and tuner are estimating 380-400 whp on 9 psi.

I can understand you posting that low Hp number for the Civic due to your hate for Furd but did you think anyone on LS1Tech was going to buy it? LOL

Furds are light years ahead of honda. They were atleast smart enough to know their **** was junk back in 03 when they boosted the cobro. Honda still not so much.


How's that Islander?

So you like to lie to people about numbers because you don't like the other brand? Mature...

299 is way more likely @ 9psi than 390~400.
What engine...K or B ?

If it's truthfully 299 whp than I'd guess a B-series.

390+ would have to be a K20/K24 on a happy Dyno.
