  • Опубликовано: 9 сен 2015
  • We've always liked the Honda Civic Si, even if we've never loved it. The inputs are great, the outputs? Not so much. So, this one is mostly stock except for a Comptech supercharger and E85 conversion, putting down 400 HP!

    Guys, it's a 4 cylinder 2.4L makes 390whp, means 1.2L puts out 195 whp, that's very Impressive, car only weights in at around 3000 pounds. Power to weight ratio, is amazing. Put it up against a 5.0L v8 mustang that makes 420 hp, my money is on the civic si, no questions asked. And the amount of money you spend on the civic si, would still be less than what the new 5.0 cost.

    • @TassieLorenzo
      @TassieLorenzo 9 лет назад +2

      +TheXBLEST The Si won't do too well on stock tires. It really needs much wider sticky tyres (if it has 400hp).

    • @TheXBLEST
      @TheXBLEST 9 лет назад +1

      +TassieLorenzo thats the only way to run, 235 maybe 245 if can throw them on a 17x9.0 or 9.5, roll them fenders and some traction bars, traction balls and your good too go

    • @MrE30ftw
      @MrE30ftw 8 лет назад +2

      +TassieLorenzo the stock tires on the civic si suck even completely stock. The all seasons are hockey pucks and the summer tires are a shitty/expensive choice as well. Anyone looking for a si should stick with the all season ones (dont pay more for the summer tire package) and buy a good set of summer tires off tirerack.
      any type of aggressive driving even in a straight line and I over power the all seasons in my SI. They're a fucking joke.

    So just to clear up a few things for the people can't comprehend the power level because they are going off gains from what ct site says.
    In addition to the CT blower is
    Vittuned aftercooler
    2.95 pulley
    Fullrace down pipe
    Prl CAI
    Ported inlet
    ZDX big bore TB
    DW 65c pump 1500 injectors
    E85 tune

      Thank you for the facts, everyone is suddenly a pro tuner when they hear 400hp on a stock motor. K24's LOVE boost. I laugh when wrx owners push 20+lbs of boost and barely make 300hp lol

    • @Network-Mike
      @Network-Mike 9 лет назад +18

      +k20z3allmotorFTW I think people are questioning it because in the beginning of the video video there was mention of the base kit, pulley and aftercooler and the kit is about $3500. It was said that everything else was stock. Later on in the video it was said that there was bigger injectors and fuel pump. He also said in the video that the exhaust was stock. So in reality there is probably about $8-10k put into this car.

    Holy shit these comments are cancer. Some people really can't stand to see a fast Honda can they? I don't get it. Does it touch on their insecurities? This car has the dyno sheets to prove its power. Factor in the type of dyno and drivetrain loss and he most definitely is at 400bhp. For everyone calling him an idiot for saying there is no boost by gear; instead of hopping on the hate bandwagon, how about you do a little research and see the stock 9th gen ECU cannot do BBG. To everyone saying it doesn't "look" like 400hp, I'm not sure what you're talking about. It looks like it's pulling hard as fuck to me. Considering in all of these videos even fast cars look slow, I'd say this looks plenty fast. Jesus.

The shifter i was incredible. The only thing was that it was a touch slower compared to other cars at the same price. This would have been an awesome upgrade.

      It must be rice b.c its a honda right? Fuckin idiots like you. There are more fords and chevys that are riced out then hondas. And the guy is not doing nascar or going 180 mph to need six piston brakes or coilovers. If he just got rotors and pads or even just pads and fluid and great tires the car would be copestetic. Also some kind of an exhuast upgrade to let all that forced air in out. But its like anytime someone even puts different tires on a honda people call it rice an dont know what rice means obviously. Plus its not youre car and it's definitely not ugly to look at so shut youre cunt holes.

      +Trevor Wray superchargers have a very high toque at low rpms(thats why pro offroaders use superchargers) compared to turbos but turbos have higher torque at around 4k rpms and loose all the torque on the top end, still depends on the turbo tho but one thing for sure is superchargers have more toque on low rpms.

    • @trevorwray
      @trevorwray 9 лет назад +1

      +sweet dreams Yes but the k20 doesnt make a substantial amount of torque supercharged when comparing to cars that are known to torque steer, a la Mazdaspeed 3, Focus ST, and the other turbo hot hatches. Why do they torque steer.. because they make a lot more torque than the civic. I think your logic was correct in the days past, but with todays technology, turbos spool much quicker and have become much more usable low down in the powerband. Also, where a car makes peak torque doesn't really matter when talking about torque steer.

      Not in this video.. looked slow.
      If I had to guess I'd put it at 300hp..
      These cars aren't fast stock but they aren't terribly slow either.. with double the stock power it should be a rocket ship but from the video that simply doesn't seem to be the case.

    • @Loebane
      @Loebane 9 лет назад +1

      +SI RICKO Yeah at 11-12 lbs of boost, it should be impossible to double the horsepower. Theoretically at 14.5 you can double it, but then you have to deal with all the other restrictions from exhaust, valves etc. I'd believe 320 though. Of course, I know nothing about E85.

      I have drove and have many fiends with sc 2014 si's on e85 and meth and fully stock just with the kit there not making over 320. Just by the passenger talk i can tell he don't know shit about hondas all he did was just install the kit. lolol

    • @jakehopt
      @jakehopt 9 лет назад +2

      +Justin McMullen No? You have 2 sides of the fence on Hondas in the US. 70% of owners who modify their cars are low-income, budget boy-racers that just want to sound fast (And come across tacky). The other end of the spectrum are guys who modify with more taste and money, in which case they're still grouped into the boy-racer club. Either way there is still a big stigma of Honda drivers in the US, they act like Hondas are god's gift to man and nothing can beat them. As soon as they make any real money they usually abandon this way of thinking and trade up.

    I watched your One Take of the Civic Si. You seemed to like the handling package, but it's the lack of Hp/Tq compared to the Fords that seemed to deter you. Would you say that this is the power that makes the car more competitive or would you say that it's handling is still not on par?

    I have a real rookie question to ask. Does adding a bolt on Supercharger tamper warranty? I would like to add something simple like this, but I'm not quite on the enthusiast level to know exactly what I'm doing and it's a brand new car.
