Ok this is how I did them.

Went to a deserted road with my buddy. He drove 400m in the opposite direction. He flashed his lights (signalling that I can go, at that time he also started the stopwatch) and I stepped on the gas. When I passed him he stopped the stopwatch.

My time was 17.72 sec which is crappy. Also a lot of human error in this setup is possible. I was hoping to keep it near 15 sec. I am quite frustrated that my buddy got a time of 17.00 sec with a 98 Z24 (only mod is K&N air intake)...beaten by a 150hp vehicle...

What could be wrong with my Prelude? Granted that it's automatic transmission...but still...

Also when I floor it I expect my tires to spin, and even that does not happen. Only when I hit 5000 RPM then I feel the VTEC kicking in...al in all the acceleration of this vehicle is pretty slow :(

Any ideas guys? Should I take it to Honda to let them have a look?
