04 compG vs 99 si coupe

[Toms04compg]

So about about a week and a half ago when it was mid 40's up here I ran my brothers civic he's got b20v I/e/h suspension a few more things against my stock gtp. .. we run from a dig launch I had him and kept pulling until about 70 where he starts to reel me in around 85 he's next to me and when we stop at 100 he's got me about 1 1/2 cars ... granted I know what that car is as I've ran it at the track also. He runs a best of 14.3 so I figured he would win already. But long story short I think its time for some mods now lol. On a side note if I ran him from say a 45 I would have got spanked so I didn't. He doesn't even have any stickers wtf right jk.

[JDrach]

Aw snap. Time to slap a few goodies on that comp g

[Toms04compg]

I know right... I swear I'm the only Asian guy into domestic cars.I'll show em soon enough.

So, you're getting something RWD with a v8?

[Toms04compg]

yeah that's in the works ... I'm looking at some camaros for a new toy but not in any serious rush. Once you drive an ls1 with long tubes cai and 4.10's the sky is the limit you know.

[Toms04compg]

Still love the gp though... 4 door leather nice and got some pep.

[blueguy]

Some intake/exhaust work and a tune/3.6" would take care of that Civic...pretty easy.

[BillBoost37]

Tom you aren't the only one. I know a couple other Asian guys into domestic cars.

[Toms04compg]

props to them... its almost against the rules lol.

[Toms04compg]

Yeah I'm hoping I can run what you stated pretty safely... If not I hope I can throw in rockers without yanking my motor again. That should keep the kr hopefully low to non existant.

[blueguy]

I'd get whatever set of headers you want, a 180*, new plugs/wires, have someone locally tune the car with a custom tune, get a 3.6", and make an intake. "should" add about 30-40WHP and about the same amount of torque, if not a little more. It will however move the powerband up with the headers/flow so it should not only gain power but help you launch as well.

[Jomamma]

The power band moves up right?

See above.

[Toms04compg]

With the 3.29 I have vs I think 2.87 the 2.87 has better top end right?

[blueguy]

2.93's.

Technically yes, but 3.29's still aren't that short of a ratio, IMO.

[Jevik]

Tom you aren't the only one. I know a couple other Asian guys into domestic cars.

Almost every Asian I know bought a Muscle car, big cadillac, 50's Chevy.. Anything American and huge was their first purchase..

They liked the room in those cars, as everything available in Japan was much smaller.

[16MustangVet]

gears.............. you could also move to a different sidewall height too. Once you hit 100 these fall on their face

[Sudden]

Rockers aren't bad. The springs are a little PITA. I don't have headers and I still have knock. i'll see what happens when the IC is done.

[Sudden]

I don't think we have the power on top end for 2.87 to mean more.

[SF9777]

Hey wouldn't a smaller pulley alone with a Open Cone intake add some good amount of power that is really noticeable?
