I watched Daniel Trimnal's bone stock LS swap in a gutted 90 DX hatchcrap, on 13" beater tires, **** on an STi twice in a row, from a standstill @ traffic lights. Let's hear it for wrong wheel drive and 108 whp vs AWD drivetrain losses and HYPE.

WRXs are slow, ****** vehicles. I refuse to ride in them.

I have beaten all the srts4 I raced except fo oner,last night I was in frankfurt at the so called friday night fights. raced 2 srt4 beat up the stock one by about 15 cars, the other on is modified with boost turned up to 22 psi, my civic is at 17psi I took him out from a stop, but then he caught up with me and it was a neck to neck race, then we ran again from a roll at 40 mph. took him again in qaurter mile. but since the race was on a long stretch on the autobahn it was about a mile long. so cars with top end speed will win. he tracked me down and it was a neck finish again. so the modified srt4's are hard to beat on the autobahn.

I beat a stock one from a stop. He put his boost controller on and ran 17psi (actually slowed him down) on a basically stock setup. He also had like 5 people total in his car, but I had a passenger also and two Si rear trailing arms in the hatch. Very close race but I came out on top when he put the boost controller on.

No were neck and neck. He had to shift a lot quicker then me so I felt like I was going to get the upper hand when shifted to the next gear. We were not at a track we were on the highway. I beat my friend Stewart's Stage 2 SRT bad by like 2.5 car lenths from 0-90 or 100. He got a better start then my but by my 2nd I pulled him bad. He dyno'ed at 245hp and 275tq. The funny thing is my cousin only had Stage 1 and mods and dyno the same day and the on same dyno at 275hp and 292tq. My cousin could beat Stewart Stg2 all day long.

and how many Civcs-intergas-crx's did you count. Don't be a hater. I mean I don't like Neons either but if a car is fast It should matter if it a Boosted Kia. If fast and it's gotta be respected as so. Sort of like a Rattle snakes. You may not like them, but you need to realize they are a force to be reckoned with.

Your right Neons are not cool!!! Think of it like this: A Neon is to Lancers & Imprezas as Srt-4's are to Evos & STI's

I saw a stock one and a stage 2 one run at our 1/8th mile track and they weren't running anything impressive. I wouldn't worry about it
