Re: [CHALLENGE] Scirocco VS Accord ???

don't over estimate your hp.
I have a 2.0 block, 1.8 head, autotech sport cams, fuel enrichment, tt race
downpipe, catless exhaust and I get 131 to the wheels, I bet you get closer
to 140hp to the wheels. Even Bretts car gets "only" 150hp to the wheels. :)

of course that is still enough to give that guy a very good run, he might
get you in the high end, but I bet he will have to play some catch up.
