- Do you even know what stock si's run? 14.7, how about a S/C tC? 15.2. Dosnt sound to me that its raping anything. Better yet, race a S/Ced SI againsed a S/Ced tC. See who wins.

It does....the whole low torque makes me sick...just imagine if the si had 190 tq along with the 197 hp.....quick!......but no one can sit here and say a civic looks better than a tc....and its a honda=generic.....thats how ive always viewed them....ugly...p.o.s rice cars! with no torque! vtec....eaxactly..............................no people who r going to argue....yea its faster...and since the stock motor has 197 hp a turbo at 6psi might push more hp than a tc boosted at 6psi....but if u change swap the engine like honda did(si diff engine from civic) put the solora v6 makin 210 hp...whered the si go.....je ne sais pas....4 cars behind you....toyota=torque/hp honda= hp/no torque.......and a s/c tc will rape a si...cuz of 3 mor hp and lik 50 more torque than the si!
- Low TQ? What, a whole 40 less TQ than a tC?
...a supercharged im talking about....its only fair to compare the best since the si is the best civic out there its not fair to compare it to a tc...so the best tc (r u following my reason) is a supercharged....and a s/c has 184...si 136....45tq difference...and plus the 200 hp....2.4 liter....itll deff beat a si....edmunds
- Didnt know if you've noticed, however scion now = generic
.....im sorry i just think honda never comes out with anything thats hot...they look...blan....lyk something generic wud.....tc's are hot...along wit all other toyota...acuras...also dont consider them luxury....they just dont look it......new accord...rip off of altima, with an ugly back....

Heres a def:More contemporary use of the term rice burner, along with the prefix rice, has taken on an alternate pejorative meaning for an automobile that has been modified to give impression of high performance, but does not necessarily have any high-performance capabilities. This practice is in direct contrast to the "stealth" or "sleeper" style of automotive modification, where a vehicle may have major performance modifications, but the appearance remains similar to that of a stock model. In this manner, the appellation can apply to any vehicle regardless of country of origin. The most commonly modified cars are sport compacts, but the term can apply to any class of vehicle, including trucks. What do all kids do to civics....what are civic renowned 4 world wide.....yea they can be fast.....but putting an exhaust and an intake and thinkn u can beat anything on the street doesnt qualify u as a fast car....i was refering to honda in general....not the si...cuz it is formidale.

Like i stated somewhere else its not fair to compare a si to a tc....a civic to a tc yes....so si vs s/c...but even then is forced....but if u were to swap an engine such as honda did for the si instead of using the reg civic engine then the next thing that i hav heard of that wud fit is the v6 solora...which yea is still a v6 compares to a l4 but u got 6 gears and higher rpm.
[size=2]- Do you even know what stock si's run? 14.7, how about a S/C tC? 15.2. Dosnt sound to me that its raping anything. Better yet, race a S/Ced SI againsed a S/Ced tC. See who wins.[/size]- Just because theres more on paper, dosnt always mean its going to be faster.
Si off of edmunds.
0 - 60 (sec): 7.2
0 - 75 (sec): 10.1
1/4 Mile (sec @ mph): 15.1 @ 93.8
S/c tc:
tc s/c: 0 - 60 (sec): 7.2
0 - 75 (sec): 10.1
1/4 Mile (sec @ mph): 15.13
and ive seen stock s/c run upper 14's.......edmunds rated a cobalt ss...
0 - 60 (sec): 6.96
0 - 75 (sec): 10.08
1/4 Mile (sec @ mph): 15.42 @ 96.98
and we all know a cobalt ss....runs low 14's.....so saying a si runs 14.7 and that a tc isnt capable is a faul argument buddy....go look at 1/4 mile times of both...they are pretty much the same....tc s/c has more tq...and 2.4......but i believe the si runs just as fast if not , is because of the 6gears and 7800 redline or w/e it is cuz i kno its higher...so yea saying it wud rape....no it wudnt but i kno i wudnt be beat by one...driver has alot to do wit it

You guys obviously need to stop reading magazines, and go to a track. Ive personally ran 14.8 stock, and consistant 14.9's with a member on here to prove it, and time slips to back it up. What about these as well?
