    No get rid of it.


    Jk it's a nice engine. I mean yeah, it's better than the DX and LX and EX of it's years. But the margin gets smaller and smaller there, and the a3 just doesn't feel AS sporty as most would like it.

    Im happy with the a3. If I wanted a fast car, I wouldn't have bought the EP. Good thing I have a fast car in the garage if I get that urge.

    I like my a3 just fine. It doesnt have the brute force of my bolt on and chiped 4x4, but the mpg is wayyyyy better Im planning on doing bolt-ons over the winter and im sure that will keep my happy for awhile.

    I actually love my a3. With just intake, shorty header, and exhaust with the 2003 rsx-s six speed I can take a b18c swapped da teg from 0-90 then he krept past me and won by 1 car length. Can't wait to get kpro back. Then I will probably lightly boost her.

    Nothing wrong with the a3. Just matters what u want out of ur car. a3 can make power. If u want more then swap.

    Well technically it is true vtec, just only on the intake side with only two lobes instead of three. It's just not "fun" vtec.

    I'm happy with it for now. Eventually I'd like a K24 swap.

    I'm happy with it as long as its working. But the eventual plan is to take it out of the car as soon as funds permit.

    Yup. I've gotten to where I'm pretty satisfied with mine with the basic bolt-ons I'm running (Icebox from a RSX-s, `05 RSX-s exhaust, OBX twin loop), but when she eventually dies (185,000 and still pulling!) it's K24 time.
    I doubt that will be any time soon, but I realized a while back I'd much rather swap than get a new car when the time comes. Couple grand for a new engine > Whole new ride that I'll just want to mod the isht out of anyway.
