best effort yet
the other day I had the best race from a Honda. I even gave him a good chance. My brother was crusin beside me on the road at about 50 mph and he starts to rev at me. Now I know his car well and he knows mine (we trade from time to time.) so I know he needs to be at at least 5000 rpm to get a good run so I wait for him to drop it. Suddenly I hear the scream of a million angry bees so I drop to second not knowing what to expect and floor it. slowly I start to pull. first i look over and see his wheel, look again, headlights. At about 90 I check my mirror, there's those headlights. 120, I check the mirror on the windshield,he is about a foot behind my bumper at 130 he pulls in behind me and we start to slow and I think **** that was close. Needless to say , when we got to my house he had a very sad look on his face and said "I need to get more mods". All I can think is so do I little brother You gave me a heck of a run.

Nice run.

Sounds like a Prelude to me. What mods does he have? H22 engine. That's about as good as he's going to get engine wise.

Ahh well then. He needs more mods. Intake & exhaust will yield some gains, but not much.

Sounds like his lude gave you a good run, what year and model is it? If its the models with vtec your correct they pull best in the higher rpms for obivous reasons.
If he really wants to smoke you tell him to save up for a turbo... mmm turboed lude... mmmmm |

It is a 2000. The prettiest red I have ever seen, white 17" wheels and no spoiler, they look sweet without the spoiler
