2.4 takes SI

i was turning onto the highway today and my light was green about to turn yellow. so i turn onto the highway i see a 1999ish honda civic SI the light blue kind. and i saw it had after market rims and then it was lowered. so im like to my friend watch he is going to try to ketch use on the highway. sure enought i look and here he comes trying to ketch up to use. i go into 4th gear and floor is and just start pulling and he is geting father back. so we slow down and he gets closer he gets right up on the side of use and we go from about 80mph and buy i got to 125 i had about 4 to 5 cars on him. my friend loved it. he always thought amarican cars cant beat imports. well now he things difforent. from looking and hearing the civic it had intake and a muffler and was lowered and tinted windows. and it said DOHC Vtec on the side under the rear door trim

I beat a 03 civic si in my 2.4 too. I pulled up next to him & he wanted to go. So I pulled about 3 cars lengths on him and then slowed down. He thought I had the supercharger!

The 2.4 has more power and way more torque than a pre-2006 Si... should be an easy win... even for an automatic.

Modded things can be a bit difference.

hrmm. How long does it take a 2.4 ss to pull to from 80 to 125? Not trying to start ****, just curious.

Good kill on the civic, I ate some hatch for lunch a month ago too.

Edit: You should have looked at him and yelledl VVT!!! while you pulled away.
