I'm thinking it was around 77mph..I tried to slip the clutch, but again I'm new to this. Obviously I should have jumped out better on the fwd civic so ur right. I heard that there is a valve on the clutch line that doesn't allow these cars to launch hard from the factory. Not sure if this guy knows what he's talking about though, as I've never heard anything like that before..can anyone confirm this?
btw..my wore out 95 neon sohc 5spd ran a 10 flat so I'm well aware of how bad a 9.5 stacks up. If the clutch line thing is true, I think I'll just leave it alone and make a low roll street racer out of it. I'm not trying to break anything.

lol at everyone telling you to sell it for an sti.
Its a decent DD, pretty quick for what it is and hell id take ot over an srt-4 or cobalt SS t/c anyday. That awd comes in handy and unlike most new cars, including many so called SUVs, if the road ends you dont gotta worry about it
Plus you should be fine if you want to go a bit quicker as long as you keep it under 300whp, doesnt sounds like much but it would be noticeably quicker then a stock STi with a few simple mods. But if you just want a solid and reliable DD then you got one.
