A properly built, turbo honda is fast. Don't get me wrong. However there IS no replacement for displacement. Put the same turbo on our motor and see what you have.

Some of the guys here in the DFW area, might remember a little white hatch, which was stolen from my driveway, pretty much nothing could beat him but a 562 WHP C6z06.

Anyone remember Jeremy, not sure of his last name. 414 stroker in a SS? 5xx wheel? He was about 1 car on him.

I used to build Honda's. Mainly for tracks however. Thats why my TA has EVERY SUSPENSION part you can buy for an F-body on it, in reality our cars are fat heavy pigs. LoL, but you have to give credit where credit it due. A fast car is a fast car.

A Stock SS/TA/Z28/Firehawk would kill the GSR or ITR swapped hatch. There is no point racing him, as everyone stated, waste of your gas. Kinda like my friend in his 430whp GTO wanting to race me in my 350whp TA, whats the point?

However my roommates run a shop, pretty much all they build is imports, So I'm stuck on the dark side with the only domestic, The ONLY car I would get rid of my TA for is an EVO.

Moral of this jabber, Unless he boosted, its pointless, however for what HIS car is, compared to the Honda world its a quick little car. Depending on what it looks like.

To each his own people. To each his own.
