Don't feel bad, I just bought my wife a 2008.5 MS3 dyno'd to 290 WHP and more torque than my EP3 will never see lol.

I can still stick with her through 3rd gear though :mbiggrin: I <3 Z3 tranny.

Yea my girl has a type s and it sucks being slower and being at high rpms all the time, whenever i drive it, i forget she has a 6 speed and she nags how im always shifting so high in rpms lol... bought kpro so im that much closer to keeping up
And shes the one who taught me how to drive stick... i knew how go move a car before she taught me but never in the streets

I think that'd give me so much motivation to work on my car. Haha, I would be heartbroken if my gf could out drive me.

Any Future Plans?!?!?!:mwink::mwink::mwink::mwink::mwink:

Agreed, simply due to gearing.

He could do it though,esp on some good tires. Probably a lot better shot if they're launching.

It's okay, as long as your the one with the real stick and you get to use it then eveything is fine. Otherwise, if she has a 'bob' then your in trouble.

My GF wants a Mini Cooper S, I'm hoping I'll have my K24A2 before she bought it or I'll be embarassed as much as I was when I saw that her automatic Mazda Protege 2003 ES 1.6L exhaust line was bigger than my old stock exhaust on the EP3 (one of the reason I upgraded ^^) and she'll be more than pleased to remind me I'm slower than her. But women driving fast/quick car are so much sexy that I'll be OK with it :P

Just get a faster car from the factory (EVO or STI).

If you would like to keep your EP3 then just swap/forced induction/whatever.

*Personally id opt for a better car and even if her car is faster than yours, why would it matter? Id love for my girl to have a STI/EVO/NSX/etc...ill just be riding shotgun all the time smoking by blunt.

Exactly...the Type S and EP3 are both slow. The Type S is just less slow. Not knocking em but thats a fact.

As I previously said, if you want fast...get a better platform. ie. rwd/awd > Evo/Sti/nsx/s2k/etc.

True, but modify an evo/sti and they are monsters.

He is right basic bolt ons intake, downpipe, cat, exhaust and tune and my evo put down 376 whp - if I upgrade my wastegate and bov I can probly get it around 400 whp. I love both you have to spend so much money/time/parts on making the civic fast, dont get me wrong I love it and more power for building one. My ep3 isnt a slouch either put down 226 whp with k20a2, intake, rbc, race header, exhaust, stage 2 cams, ti valve springs, retainers.

If I could do it again though I would save my money and just buy an STi/Evo and put the rest in retirement :'(

Who gives a shit if it's the worst way to go. That's not my point it's been done and it's done all the time. With money and effort they go pretty well. And when did I say race car? I said performance. Not race car lol.

I'm sorry and this is meant not to offend you but the evo's died with the ix. the evo ten looks like ass. I owned a evo ix mr. great car and yes it was fast. but i love hatch backs and i love hondas. and i rather have an all motor car over another boosted car but thats just me.

although i've never been a fan of the lip kits. i'm one of the few who actually prefer the usdm bumpers/sideskirt;as long as you paint match the bumper markers or in my case with my nhbp i tint my bumper markers

i agree. i'd rather have a hatch honda all motor.
although everytime i see an evo X
i can't help but stare at it.

weird how it's not my style yet i'm so drawn to it. it is a sexy car just not my style
