what do you thinks faster?
what do you think would win a race out of a 97 vts with s/steel exhaust, 4-1 manifold, induction kit, chipped by superchips, mapped, short shift, uprated pistons or a standard civic 1.6 vti coupe on a 96 plate which is standard apart from big noisy back box and induction?

think the civics 157 bhp, when new. Would be close, take your backseats out etc and you should be faster aslong as you can drive normally.

your post reminds me the vts has a boot full of stereo so got a bit of weight in the back but if anything i found it sticks to the road much better and dont feel so twitchy
