RBC’s didn’t come stock on that motor, and that makes a pretty big difference in his case. Not taking anything from it, but just saying. The torque numbers are real nice.

aaaand just for arguement, he had ARP headstuds 😃

Well this is deff cool. An accord motor does go for hella cheap, but a kswap in general does not. I’m sure he is going to go through axles and transmissions like it’s his job, which are also not cheap. Cool none the less. I could have bad high 400s on e85 also. I just don’t like e85.

You kinda forgot to mention the k04 turbo until after oh yeah and what stage chip it is. I really dont care, my clutch slips, my motor sucks… thats all gonna change. My car is in no way intended to be a drag car, but it should turn some nice times. Sorry you need to show the power of a 1.8t against an economy motor…

the car does NOT have a k04, i looked at it, its a stock k03s with a reflash reflash. makes 180whp at best…

a 1.8T is 100% an economy motor

Yeah i hear ya, the 5 speeds do very well. The desire for them is really high now. With proper axles it would be fine but then again that all adds to cost like you said.

Please they put it in the GTI, just because the motor sucks balls doesnt mean it has no performance. The owner of the car said it had a k04.

please, they put a k20 in your SI, just because YOUR motor sucks doesn’t mean it has performance. i looked under the hood. the car has a factory k03s, which AWP’s come from the factory.

also, why did my 4dr GOLF have a 1.8T that wasn’t a gti?  
your statements are absolutley irrelevant.

1.8T’s don’t suck what so ever, just alot ( most) of them are neglected and abused and retards work on them.
