The plus side is the auto will give you a more consecutive run, with less room for errors. So if you race someone with a manual you have a better chance of winning probably.

NOT A CHANCE

If you can't beat one now with the i/h/e (you cant)
the msd won't help you at all.
throw a 50 shot on there then you'll win.

keep in mind your not gunna find anyone who will race you that doesn't already have a i/h/e. so as much as it helped your car it'll help the one that breaths better even more.

and as far as auto being more "consecutive" ( i guess you meant consistant) NOT A CHANCE the tighter gear ratio's in a ex or si will eat your lunch.

Hey if you want to come out to ct I'll race you. all i got is intake and exhaust (gunna have a blaster 3 soon) I'll SMOKE YOU.

Eat his lunch? I don't think he said his auto was faster. He said consistant(consecutive).

With the mods you have it would be close. Definately a driver's race.

BS! You think just because people race they have to have work done to their cars?!?!

I know many people that will race anything in stock cars. I watch my friend beat a stock V6 mustang in a Stock 95 civic LX..Goes to show that you are wrong..

"Goes to show that you are wrong.."

Did somebody not get their Flinstone vitamin today

Wow you disproved an all-incompassing statement you must be REAL PROUD.

Also a stock civic lx has NO and i mean NO chance of beating a v6 mustang even with a fifty shot.

sounds like your buddy thought he was racing somebody. If the guy on the mustang was blind dumb and had a bottle of coke under his gas pedel he'd SMOKE yer buddy.

GET REAL

Oh ya and what about yer auto vs manual argument?

You think an auto lx is faster than a 5speed ex/si?

yer in touch with reality
