Not talking trash, just answering the question that you put out there. But all I have to say is if you showed up on my forum and started stirring the pot like you did here, your ass would have been banned in the first three posts.

Now I post a video just like you showing a slower car beating something it should not have beaten and even post the time I ran. Why don’t you grow a ******* par and post you actual time. And don’t say you have because I have read all 252 posts in the ******* thread and you did not. Stop avoiding the question or STFU! Plain and simple no if's, and's, or buts’. I want to see your 1/4 mile time posted up or you are just a troll starting ****.

From that video it looked like a 15 second run. Which is not bad for a stock SI, but I think he wants us to beleive that the new SI's have magic pixi dust in their motors which alows them to beat cars with 30-40 more HP to the wheels and nearly 80-90 foot pounds of TQ. lol

you know i just timed that video 3 times with a stop watch and everytime i do it, it end in a 16 second run, no wonder why he wont post his times

even in the video, his car moves at 18 seconds and he passes the line at 2 seconds = 16 seconds

See now i feel bad for asking him to post his times...poor kid

LMAO guess he will not be posting his time. I really dont care. I have seen what stock SI's can do. And I know all to well what modded ones can do. I live right next to a tuner shop here in Orlando that loves to work on Honda's and everytime I go in the have a civic up on the dyno with a frakinstian motor K24 bottom end with the K20 head full bolt on and cams turning out over 250WHP and 200TQ while still on a conservative tune.

I had a 2.4 SS, yes it CAN beat an SI as I did it several times. And yes 15 seconds in a 1/4 mile is slow no matter what your driving.

No actualy before my Balt and Cavi I had all V8 big block RWD cars. Prior to my 2 hour each way commute I had zero use for a 4 cylinder car but you try doing that every day in a car that gets at best 15 mpg! I used to pass everything on the road except a gas station! And my M is slower then the 11 second daily drivers I used to have. But its waaaaaay nicer!

if your talking abut drag racing then, well anything slower then 12 seconds is considered a slow car, so dont worry your call falls in the slow category also.

My first car was a 1969 Dodge Dart GTS with a 340 and 3 2 barrel carbs.
Next was a 1976 Monte Carlo that started with a 350, then went to a 383 and finaly to a 454 topped with a tunnel ram set up.
Then it was a 1979 Olds Cutlass with the 383 out of the Monte.
Then a 1979 Malibu station wagon using the SAME 383 till it blew up.
Then a 1977 Monte Carlo again with a 454.
At the same time I also had a 1980 Malibu station wagon with another 383 and a 1976 Impala 2 door with the fast back rear window, powered by of another big block but this one was a 427 from a wrecked Vette.
I sold the Malibu and Impala and traded the Monte for a 1980 turbo Trans-Am.
The turbo motor was dead within 2 years so in went a 400 Pontiac motor.
A 1972 Formula 400 Fire Bird replaced the T/A. but I kept the 400 from it as it was brand new. 4 rebuilds later and some masive engine work netted me a sold 11 sec daily driver. That I drove for about 10 years before I got my job on the other side of town.
Next was a 2004 5spd Cavi, what a HUGE drop from what I was used to.
Then my 2007 2.4 SS sedan, better but still no where near enough.
Now I have my M and as I said above while its not as fast as some of the cars I've owned it rides better, handles better, and looks better then they did. My M does a 1/4 in 12.8 @111 mph with just a Shark flash has power everything, handles like its on rails and still gets over 30 mpg on the highway! I'm very happy with it.
